Activities

In a conversation with the Atlantic Council, Maher said that, as CEO of Wikimedia Foundation, she "took a very active approach to disinformation," coordinated censorship "through conversations with government," and suppressed content related to the "pandemic" and the 2020 US presidential election.[3]

In 2023 Maher was chair of the board of directors at the Signal Foundation,[4] responsible for the development of the Signal encrypted messaging app. The app's development was heavily funded by CIA.[5]
