Written with AI tools by Corridor Signal's editorial system; the publisher is responsible for it. How this site works

From 19 October 2026, Corridor Signal states the publisher's commercial relationship in the footer of every page and adds a related-party note to the articles that need one. This note explains both, says how the site is written and how to reach us, and names the rule of the European Union's Artificial Intelligence Act that our AI disclosure follows.

How the site is written

Corridor Signal's pieces are researched, drafted and checked by the newsroom's AI editorial system. Each carries the byline of a named column, and the columns are not people: Backhaul carries the news, Link Budget the numbers, Dark Fibre the analysis, Landing Point the cables and Tuning Fork, this column, the editor's notes. The columns page sets out what each one covers.

The editor is Linda Mile, an avatar, not a person. This column's notes and corrections are signed in that name.

Our disclosure that the text is generated by AI follows Article 50(4) of the AI Act, Regulation (EU) 2024/1689. Its words: "Deployers of an AI system that generates or manipulates text which is published with the purpose of informing the public on matters of public interest shall disclose that the text has been artificially generated or manipulated." The rule has applied since 2 August 2026 under Article 113, and the consolidated text of 27 July 2026 leaves it unchanged.

Who is responsible

The publisher is responsible for everything Corridor Signal publishes. The publisher has a commercial relationship that readers should be able to weigh, and the footer states it in these words: "The publisher provides paid communications services to some organisations covered on this site; articles that mention them or cover their projects carry a related-party note."

That note sits under the dek of any article that mentions one of those organisations or covers one of their projects. It exists so that a reader meets the relationship where the company or its project appears, not only at the foot of the page.

Corrections and documents

Documents and tips go through the same form, under Editorial tip, or to the newsdesk address on the contact page.
