hee hee hoo hoo you should definitely bring the self-surveillance device that is registered in your name, covered in cameras, and reports its location at all times to a legally dubious event

great plan

    The OPSEC idea behind this isnt worried about being tracked in real time by the police at the protest, the highest risk is it being used in court after the fact to prove you where there, and nearby illegal stuff happening; thats why you leave it at home, not just bring it turned off, they can still use that to say ‘you where here’

      bingo. they just can’t sift through data in real time outside of specific situations just yet. especially in a big protest or something.

      but they can pull up the records of who was there at the time from the isp and persecute them individually.

      think jan 6 riots, but they would be way less lenient to not-fascists.
