This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
This first thing you should do when going protesting, is to leave your phone at home.
And cover up your face and any visible tattoos or any other identifying features
Put a rock in your shoe too. Gait identification can be shockingly accurate.
and cover your face if you are in a shithole country like USA, Turkey, Russia etc
USA ... the world's richest third world country.
Having a small faraday bag around is useful too, that's what I do.
I wouldn't trust a foil bag to do anything 100%.
the only 100% way to not be caught is not bring it.
it also provides an alibi. "see, my phone was here all day long."
I'm talking about an actual faraday bag, not a foil bag. That, combined with a powered off device keeps you fairly protected. They aren't going to get into your phone if it's powered off.
it also provides an alibi. "see, my phone was here all day long."
There's going to be a deviation in usage regardless, it's not providing an alibi. A gap of time when you're not using your device that you normally would be is a marker they look for. They key is keeping them locked out (again, power them off).
I mean, a proper Faraday cage will block anything unless the US government has figured out how to break the laws of physics...
If you think you need a phone, it should be a burner.
Radios or mesh devices only
Pigs are bottom feeding class traitors
Shouting from a helicopter "Please disperse because we'll come to your house and murder your families if you don't" sounds like an actionable threat. And helicopters are difficult to fly on a good day. Would be a shame if someone up there had an accident.
I don’t know about you but if I’m on the ground (protesting or not) the last thing I want is a helicopter coming down anywhere near me.
sounds like a good reason to target any helicopters flying overhead with green lasers.
And now the DEA's got a chopper in the air,
I wake up screamin' like I'm back over there,
I learned a thing or two from Charlie, don't you know?
You better stay away from Copperhead Road.
Someone I know is a military pilot. The green lasers were especially rough, because the light would get spread through the entire cockpit getting split up by the windshield, and even worse when he was flying with nightvision.
..... do with this information what you will.
Talking a whole lot of shit for someone riding around in a machine that will find literally any excuse to break down. Helicopters are sketchy as fuck, and even if you manage to autorotate perfectly to try and recover from a stall, you're still liable to suffer severe or fatal injuries. It's super easy to crash due to human error or some kind of mechanical failure.
A well kept helicopter is a reliable machine as any other, but it's true that it's probably a civil heli with extra cop stuff, ergo easy to down with some fuckery.
Follow Hong Kong tactics and use umbrellas to shield from above.
America land of the free /s
Then fucking come over assholes
Can you imagine 6 dudes with AR-15s, nothing fancy, responding that that threat? One wonders what might happen.
What's wrong is that officers of the law are allowed to lie like that, yet still want to be respected.
Yeah, it's frustrating. We need to end Qualified Immunity pronto.
Green lasers. Everybody should have one.
Checking out women sunbathing in backyards or other places.
