Hey, former software engineer at the Guardian here. Yes the news outlets are collaborating on stories too big for a single one. The last I can remember was the Panama papers, which followed a very similar process. I seem to remember they all synchronized through the ICIJ [1], and more or less each journalist would cover their own territory / domain. Then they agreed on a reasonable date to release the news. They shared more than just information, but also technical infrastructure to do the investigation. [1]: https://www.icij.org/ https://www.icij.org/

So, if the ICIJ coordinated the last one, then who coordinated this one? It seems like Forbidden Stories is the main organizer though they also make it seem like “The Pegasus Project” is the organizer as well, which seems rather confusing.
