Aftonbladet SecureDrop
SecureDrop whistleblowing submission system operated by Aftonbladet, listed in the official SecureDrop directory.
Availability
Observed online
Recent checks reached a responding endpoint. This says nothing about who operates it.

Availability refers to the operator's official clearnet page. The hidden-service endpoint is not contacted.
Identity confidence
Low
The claim rests on a single source and identity has not been independently confirmed.
- Supports confidence: Recently observed
- Supports confidence: No unresolved identity conflicts
- Supports confidence: Status history is consistent
- Weakens confidence: Single-source claim
- Weakens confidence: Identity cannot be independently confirmed
Availability and identity are assessed separately. A responding endpoint does not show that it is operated by the entity it claims to be. Why this matters

What it is
Aftonbladet operates a SecureDrop instance: a submission system that lets sources send documents and messages to the organisation over Tor without revealing who they are. The instance is listed in the official SecureDrop directory maintained by Freedom of the Press Foundation, which reviews an instance's landing page and configuration before listing it.
Submissions are accepted in English and Swedish. The directory lists these coverage areas: business, corruption, crime, criminal justice, cybersecurity, government, inequality and law enforcement. The organisation is listed under Sweden.
Where an official address is on file it is shown on this profile with its source; compare it with the organisation's own site before relying on it.

Impersonation and scam reports
Only reports confirmed by a reviewer are listed. A report describes lookalikes of this entity; it is not a statement about the entity itself.
No confirmed reports. That is an absence of reports, not a guarantee that no impersonators exist.
Evidence history
The most recent accepted observations. Each records whether something responded and, separately, whether identity was assessed.
