節點編號：INN-E7-0315
代號：0315
預算：零元
0315 的預算是零元。但比沒有錢更難的問題是：沒有錢，要怎麼拿到真正的新聞？
買不起通訊社授權，進不了付費資料庫，企業媒體也只會提供它想讓你看見的東西。今天我一直在想：在資源有限的條件下，真新聞究竟從哪裡來？
一、去現場的人手裡找
真正的獨家，不一定在通訊社手裡，而可能在目擊者手裡。
工安事故發生時，第一個知道的人通常不是記者，而是現場的人。0315 不養記者，它要建立的是一套「目擊者協議」：任何人都可以上傳所見所聞，並附上時間、地點和可驗證的細節。
問題是：怎麼知道他沒有說謊？
答案是交叉驗證。
有多少彼此不相關的人說了同一件事，信用的來源就不只是頭銜，而是重合。一個沒有認證的目擊者或許不可信；但五個彼此不認識的目擊者，都描述了同一件事，就值得被認真看待。
**決定：**不買新聞，向現場的人取得新聞。用重合代替頭銜，用數量代替權威。
二、讓查核變成所有人的事
請不起查核團隊，所以查核不能只是一個部門，而必須是一個過程。
每一條新聞都要公開來源和修正紀錄。任何人都可以提出質疑、補充或修正，而修正本身也必須留下名字。
這個想法來自我在圖書館看到的那本《太平洋航海誌》：三個人隔著眉批爭論了幾十年，真相反而在爭論裡活了下來。
把查核交給所有人，成本可以是零，但眼睛可以有無數雙。一條經得起所有人挑毛病的新聞，比一條只被某個部門蓋章的新聞，更值得信任。
**決定：**查核不是部門，而是過程。公開來源，公開爭論，讓真相在不斷被挑錯的過程中活下來。
三、去找「不讓你看見」的新聞
有些真新聞不在任何資料庫裡，因為它被折疊、被降權，或被標記成「低可信度」。我之前整理的外星歷史文獻，就是這樣差點沉下去的。
資源有限的人，最需要的往往正是這種新聞：那些別人不想讓你看見的事情。
所以，0315 要主動打撈。分散式鏡像讓被折疊的內容有地方繼續存在，版本鏈則讓它帶著證據存在。
找新聞，有一半是在找「被藏起來的新聞」。如果一個系統只收錄檯面上的消息，那它只是另一家企業媒體，只是比較窮而已。
**決定：**把「被折疊的內容」列為優先打撈對象。檯面上的新聞大家都有，沉下去的，才需要 0315。
資源有限，反而逼出一個誠實的問題：新聞業賣的到底是新聞，還是「接觸新聞的資格」？
如果真相只賣給付得起的人，那它就不是真相，而是商品。
0315 沒錢，但它想證明一件事：真新聞不在金庫裡，在人手裡。

Node number: INN-E7-0315
Codename: 0315
Budget: zero
0315 has a budget of zero. But the harder question is not how to operate without money. It is this: without money, how do you obtain real news?
We cannot afford wire-service licenses. We cannot enter paid databases. Corporate media only gives people what it wants them to see. Today I kept thinking about one question: under limited resources, where does real news come from?
1. Look in the hands of people who were there
A genuine exclusive story is not necessarily in the hands of a wire service. It may be in the hands of witnesses.
When a workplace accident happens, the first person to know is usually not a reporter, but someone at the scene. 0315 will not employ reporters. It will build a “witness protocol”: anyone can upload what they saw and heard, together with the time, location, and details that can be verified.
The question is: how do we know they are not lying?
The answer is cross-verification.
When unrelated people describe the same event, credibility comes not only from titles, but from overlap. One uncertified witness may not be trustworthy. But if five witnesses who do not know one another describe the same thing, it deserves serious attention.
Decision: Do not buy news. Obtain it from people at the scene. Replace titles with overlap, and authority with numbers.
2. Make verification everyone’s responsibility
We cannot afford a verification team, so verification cannot be a department. It has to be a process.
Every story must disclose its sources and revision history. Anyone may question, supplement, or correct it, and the correction itself must carry a name.
This idea came from a copy of The Pacific Navigation Journal I saw in the library. Three people argued through marginal notes for decades, and the truth survived inside the argument.
When verification is opened to everyone, the cost can be zero while the number of eyes can be countless. A story that can withstand everyone’s criticism is more trustworthy than a story merely stamped by one department.
Decision: Verification is not a department. It is a process. Open the sources, open the argument, and let truth survive the process of being challenged.
3. Look for the news that someone does not want you to see
Some true stories are not in any database because they have been folded away, down-ranked, or labeled “low credibility.” The alien historical documents I worked on nearly sank in exactly this way.
People with limited resources often need this kind of news most: the things someone else does not want them to see.
So 0315 will actively salvage it. Distributed mirrors give folded-away material somewhere to continue existing, while a version chain allows it to remain alongside its evidence.
Half of finding news is looking for “hidden news.” If a system only records what is already visible on the surface, it is simply another corporate media outlet—only poorer.
Decision: Make “folded-away content” a priority for recovery. Everyone already has the news on the surface. 0315 is needed for what has sunk below it.
Limited resources force an honest question: What is the news industry really selling—the news itself, or “the right to access the news”?
If truth is sold only to those who can afford it, then it is not truth. It is a commodity.
0315 has no money, but it wants to prove one thing: real news is not in a vault. It is in people’s hands.
