UniSecurityGuard Academic Whistleblower Archive
Skill by ara.so — Security Skills collection.
Overview
UniSecurityGuard is a GitHub-based archive platform documenting the experience of a Chinese academic who transitioned from associate professor to security guard. The project serves as a censorship-resistant backup for social media content that faces institutional pressure and platform removal. It demonstrates how to use GitHub as a transparent, immutable documentation platform for whistleblowing and advocacy.
Key Use Case: Preserving evidence of academic employment issues, institutional misconduct, and career transitions when primary platforms (Xiaohongshu/Little Red Book) are threatened with censorship.
Primary Language: Markdown (documentation-focused)
Repository Structure:
- README.md: Main narrative and updates
- assets/: Screenshots and image evidence
- Issues section: Community Q&A and documentation
Installation & Setup
Fork or Clone for Your Own Archive
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/UniSecurityGuard/UniSecurityGuard.git
cd UniSecurityGuard
# Create your own backup archive (fork approach)
# 1. Fork via GitHub UI
# 2. Clone your fork
git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_ARCHIVE_NAME.git
cd YOUR_ARCHIVE_NAME
Initialize Your Own Archive
# Create basic structure
mkdir -p assets/{screenshots,documents,evidence}
touch README.md
touch TIMELINE.md
touch FAQ.md
# Initialize git
git init
git add .
git commit -m "Initial archive setup"
# Push to GitHub (create repo first on github.com)
git remote add origin https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_ARCHIVE.git
git branch -M main
git push -u origin main
Core Patterns
1. Document Progressive Updates
The project uses the README.md as a chronological narrative with new updates at the top:
# [Latest Update - Critical Situation]
## [Date]: Current Status
Description of latest developments...
## [Earlier Date]: Previous Situation
Earlier context...
## Background
Original story and context...
2. Asset Organization
Store evidence systematically:
assets/
├── screenshots/
│ ├── 1.jpg # Numbered chronologically
│ ├── 2.jpg
│ └── 3.jpg
├── documents/
│ ├── contract.pdf
│ └── correspondence.pdf
└── evidence/
├── salary_records/
└── institutional_communications/
3. Embed Images in README
## Evidence Documentation
<img src="assets/screenshots/1.jpg" width="400" alt="Description of evidence">
<img src="assets/screenshots/2.jpg" width="400" alt="Context">
<img src="assets/screenshots/3.jpg" width="400" alt="Timeline proof">
4. Use Issues for FAQ and Community Support
The project uses 154+ issues as a documentation and Q&A system:
# Create structured issues for common questions
Issue #1: "关于学校施压的详细情况" (Details about institutional pressure)
Issue #2: "如何保护自己在类似情况下" (How to protect yourself in similar situations)
Issue #3: "法律建议和资源" (Legal advice and resources)
Real-World Implementation Examples
Example 1: Creating a Censorship-Resistant Archive
#!/bin/bash
# backup_social_media.sh
# Automate archiving of social media content to GitHub
ARCHIVE_DIR="./archive/$(date +%Y-%m-%d)"
mkdir -p "$ARCHIVE_DIR"
# Download screenshots (manual or automated via APIs)
# Save to archive directory
cp ~/Downloads/xiaohongshu_screenshots/* "$ARCHIVE_DIR/"
# Create daily update
cat > "$ARCHIVE_DIR/update.md" << EOF
# Update: $(date +%Y-%m-%d)
## Status
- Platform status: [Active/Restricted/Removed]
- Follower count: [NUMBER]
- Content removed: [YES/NO]
## New Developments
[Description]
## Evidence
$(ls "$ARCHIVE_DIR"/*.jpg | sed 's/^/- /')
EOF
# Commit to git
git add "$ARCHIVE_DIR"
git commit -m "Archive update: $(date +%Y-%m-%d)"
git push origin main

Safety Considerations
-
Anonymization: Remove or redact:
- Personal identifying information of third parties
- Specific institutional names (if legally required)
- Location details that enable physical tracking
-
Evidence Integrity:
# Generate checksums for evidence files sha256sum assets/**/*.jpg > assets/checksums.txt git add assets/checksums.txt git commit -m "Add evidence checksums for integrity verification" -
Backup Beyond GitHub:
# Create encrypted backup archive tar -czf archive_backup.tar.gz . gpg --symmetric --cipher-algo AES256 archive_backup.tar.gz # Store archive_backup.tar.gz.gpg in multiple locations

Troubleshooting
Issue: Content Visibility
Problem: Updates not appearing to others
# Verify commits are pushed
git status
git log --oneline -5
# Force push if necessary (use cautiously)
git push --force origin main
Issue: Large Files
Problem: Screenshots/documents exceed GitHub limits (100MB file, 1GB repo)
# Use Git LFS for large files
git lfs install
git lfs track "*.pdf"
git lfs track "*.mp4"
git add .gitattributes
git commit -m "Configure Git LFS"
# Or link to external storage
echo "Large evidence files: [External Archive Link]" >> README.md
Issue: Institutional Takedown Requests
GitHub provides:
- DMCA counter-notice process
- Transparency reports for takedown requests
- Archive repositories before potential removal
# Create redundant mirrors
git clone --mirror https://github.com/USERNAME/REPO.git
cd REPO.git
git push --mirror https://gitlab.com/USERNAME/REPO.git
git push --mirror https://codeberg.org/USERNAME/REPO.git
Issue: Community Management
High issue volume (154+ issues):
# Use labels effectively
gh label create "institutional-pressure" --color "d73a4a"
gh label create "legal-advice" --color "0075ca"
gh label create "career-advice" --color "008672"
# Bulk label issues
gh issue list --limit 100 --json number --jq '.[].number' | \
xargs -I {} gh issue edit {} --add-label "faq"
Advanced Patterns
Automated Monitoring
# monitor_platform.py - Check if primary platform content is still accessible
import requests
import json
from datetime import datetime
def check_platform_status(platform_url):
"""Monitor if content is still accessible"""
try:
response = requests.get(platform_url, timeout=10)
status = {
'timestamp': datetime.now().isoformat(),
'accessible': response.status_code == 200,
'status_code': response.status_code
}
except Exception as e:
status = {
'timestamp': datetime.now().isoformat(),
'accessible': False,
'error': str(e)
}
# Log status
with open('platform_status.jsonl', 'a') as f:
f.write(json.dumps(status) + '\n')
return status
# Run periodically via cron
# 0 */6 * * * /usr/bin/python3 /path/to/monitor_platform.py
