Thin Zar Hlaing

Thin Zar Hlaing is one of a small number of journalists still operating inside Myanmar following the 2021 military coup. She files reports via encrypted apps, moves safe houses every three days, and has not used her real name publicly in three years. She documents military operations, civilian casualties, and the digital resistance movement that has emerged in the coup's aftermath. Press Protocol is the first system that has allowed her to receive payment without a bank account that could be frozen.
