Decoded Signal

Editorial team

Who tests and who checks

Every Decoded Signal article names its author and its fact-checker. Two sets of eyes, one shared rule: publish what the test showed, not what the vendor promised.

  • LEAD REVIEWER

    Mara Vance

    Mara runs the test accounts and devices behind every Decoded Signal check. They previously worked in consumer-privacy research and write most of our hands-on reviews.

  • REVIEWS EDITOR

    Devon Oakes

    Devon fact-checks claims against platform documentation and re-runs tests before publication. They maintain our claim-status records and update history.
