Comment on YSK how to protect yourself at a protest
ameancow@lemmy.world 1 week agoJust bring a burner phone with a camera. It needs to be filmed and streamed so they can’t take evidence.
Honestly, at this point in the fight, if they track you that’s the least of our concerns. We need to shoot this whole thing down so they don’t have the power DO anything with your tracking data.

Be careful how you acquire the phone. Every phone has unique identifiers (IMEI). Even if it isn’t activated with service it is still talking to cell towers and can be tracked. If you used a card/bank account/most crypto to buy the phone, you’re already compromised. And, again, this is still true even if you never activated a service plan.
