How Do I Prepare My Phone for a Protest?
Here are the basic recommendations:
- Subdue Your Signals (and Download Signal)
- Lockdown Location Tracking
- Harden Your Hardware
- Use a Passcode, Not a Fingerprint
- Neutralize Notifications
- Think Before You Share
- Physicalize Your Phonebook

ReplyDeleteOh, sorry to see Alaska is acting 'libertarian' about the virus. We have many set to break with distancing here, too, with government guidelines, yet given the certainty of financial ruin (in strict isolation) vs. age-related mortality, it's an easy choice for many.
DeleteAs for my little family in London, we isolate as much as possible, yet if I were in my 20s, I'd feel differently about it.
So I leave the mass-protests to young folk and feel a bit older & wiser.
