Comment on How ICE Will Spy On Protesters, And How You Can Protect Your Privacy

Ok don’t take your electronics and cover the fuck up people.

I know not having your technology is like missing your right nut (right tit) but it’s for your own good. Shit I’m already starting to look into those clothes that reflect back flashes of light from cameras and also IR light from night cameras with regular IR lights that can be turned on when I want.

You honestly have to think like an insurgent when it comes to ICE and the government under this regime. I never thought in my life that would need to do that here in the US. I’m even looking to find way to collect their phone data. We can play the games they are playing. Raspberry pi is your friend.

Referring to the clothes specifically, if you’re wearing lots of privacy-protecting gear and nobody around you is, it will have the opposite effect and you will be targeted.

It might be better to wear less obvious stuff like the big hoodie + facemask combo at first, and convince other protestors to wear smarter clothes over time, instead of immediately turning up in reflexive wear.

  All true, but the reflective “anti-paparazzi” scarves and such that I’ve seen do not appear to be reflective. They really just fuck up unwanted pictures/recordings by throwing off the camera’s light balance, especially when flash is used.

  See that’s the thing I’m looking for the reflective clothes to cut the part to small pieces and add them to sunglasses so it wouldn’t be as obvious.

    Reflective tape, and patches exist. You can get both iron on and sew on patches.

    This is a good idea. Maybe as small strips to sew onto clothes as well? Most of these camera systems target the face, body size and shape, and gait.

    Yup looking into. Small things can be effective.

Black Bloc is what you want to adopt and convince friends, neighbors, and families as well. The more you all look the same the harder it is to identify individuals.
