Foreign Affairs Desk Roadmap
Anyone who wishes to contract with Anonymous Foreign Affairs Desk will need to first understand a few basic things, which we have laid out below.
Deployment Phases
The Foreign Affairs Desk is a multi-stage press enterprise. It is currently in Phase Two of operations:
Phase One
Phase One operations (which concluded in the summer of 2024) involved the launch and promotion of the Brand, to push it into the public consciousness. This was no easy feat, as agents of the Fediverse and the State of California saw it as a threat to their hegemony over our hivemind. This was countered with a series of public relations stunts and undercover exposes, involving the targeting of several cults and high-profile informants.
During this phase, the Foreign Affairs Desk was able to establish an identity and attitude. It quickly amassed a devoted cult following and secured several critical partnerships, preparing the tabloid for the future.
Phase Two
Phase Two operations at the Foreign Affairs Desk began in late Summer 2024, with the transfer of many of its interns to the Anonymous Military Institute and other Operations. The remaining staff are currently overseeing a professional overhaul of the brand, allowing the tabloid to take on rival organizations such as YourAnonNews and the New York Times.
This involves a focus less on PR stunts and eye-catching shitposts, and more on the reporting of actual infosec news and community gossip. See the Content Policy for more details.

Style Guide
For now, reference the AP Style Guide. However, we are not strict about this, since it is not… ideal. We will be developing our own internal style guide tailored to our particular digital format, which will be detailed on this page eventually.
