    Bringing your phone at all is stupid IMO, if you live in a country with a massive surveillance State like the US, they can know who you are only with your GPS location and can therefore know if you’ve been there.

      No, You can use a phone, when it gets provided by the protest organisers to communicate over briar (offline with bluetoth and wifi chip, gps, camera, micriphone removed with a privacy os and removable batterie.) At the end of the protest, the phones will be given to the organisers to use it in the next protest, or and the users destroy the phones afterwards.

        Well yeah, but that’s pretty far from bring your phone with faceapp deactivated, knowing how to desolder all that shit, install another os and stuff is hard and most people wouldnt know how to do it

          Then teach the uneducated. I know it is difficult, but it is worth while. When a organisation is good organised and dedicated, then it is possible.

            Yeah, I agree, I only disagree with the flyer being over simplistic on what it’s necessary to bring a phone to a protest, it’s not simply deactivate face app shit.
