Today, those rights are under attack. The United States is no longer a place where scientists and civil society can publish and engage in our work without fear of reprisal.

This has a chilling effect on those using data to advance justice and accountability.

We are data scientists using rigorous scientific methods and statistical analysis to quantify war crimes and human rights abuses. We have long relied on the protections of the U.S. law to protect our right to publish our research, even when it is unpopular.
