The principles behind PC

Context is not optional.

Our commitment is simple: make the origin of information as visible as the information itself.

Reporting, not invention.

The briefing contains no fabricated articles, simulated breaking alerts, or invented publishers. An empty feed is preferable to false certainty.

Permission before publication.

Metadata is withheld unless the source is enabled, its license is recorded, metadata display is explicitly permitted, and the license has not expired. The foundation has no article-body or image storage and does not scrape publishers.

The original source stays visible.

Permitted headlines link to the publisher. We do not bypass paywalls or republish restricted reporting. A metadata license does not imply permission to store a full article.

Opinions are attributed, not certified.

Hosts, guests, and community members speak for themselves. Commentary is not verified reporting or personalized professional advice. Member introductions require consent and host review; review is not a factual certification.

Support never buys editorial influence.

Voluntary contributions do not buy favorable coverage, speaking priority, or moderation exceptions. Sponsorships and affiliate relationships must be disclosed alongside the relevant content.

Show the limits.

Unavailable services are labelled as unavailable. Source approval is not independent fact-checking. Ranking, corrections workflows, and editorial review tooling still need implementation before a full news launch.
