corrupt french politicians have just legalized spying on protestors - very common anti-protest tactic now - compromise phones: track location, activate mics and cameras, read messages

if you are protesting - anywhere in the world - leave your phone at home - if you need comms consider radios or buy a burner with cash

for secure messaging I recommend signal or simplex - disappearing messages enabled just in case someone gets arrested

governments can't keep up with encryption so expect them to counter via hostile tactics to compensate. it's all they've left.

Like Patriot Act as well?

This will end up like the French version of the Canadian Trucker Protest. If they don't stop protesting in France, they will quickly see their bank accounts frozen and assets siezed.

Your cheapest option for a usable radio is going to be baofeng or talkpod. You will need some level of coordination ahead of time to get frequencies and tones right among the people you want to talk to. Have a backup channels plan and be sure everyone knows how to switch channels quickly from memory...

Lots to be learned from the Hong Kong protest pre covid.

Companies need to build a phone that has manuel switches to turn hardware on and off. I'd pay more. Fuck, "1984 Timeline" https://nostr.build/i/c91f6b2942f1add1352768cd3a1bc0de161242622ab4124d99d3a2e5ad2fd117.jpg

Sad that CalyxOS only works in Google Pixel models (and a few others) 😓

I actually don’t recommend folks go without a phone. Phones are increasingly important parts of protests. Telling the story is important. But don’t take your primary phone, get a burner phone, use a new pre-paid number. Ideally leave it at a place which isn’t your home but if you do take it ...

just like what they casually do in China remember a coupla moons ago when XiJinPing visited the European CCP ally EMacron? But in China, it's expected that if one participated in a protest rally and suddenly disappeared, then that despacito will not be expected to come back home alive and it's be...

I'm thinking we need "event branded" nostr apps!

Are those apps any good though? Some countries in the EU didn't even want to bother with laws like this because they blatantly said they would have access to everything using Israeli spy software. Can't they just record your screen?

Heard you mention this on RHR. Definitely bad news but not quite as broad as this. Requires a court order. Location can be collected for suspected crimes subject to minimum 5 years in prison. Images and sound records only for terrorism and organised crime. Cannot collect any data from lawyers, magi...
