When you publish a website that posts the names and photos of scholars who have written or said things you disagree with and encourage people to surveil and harass them, you are not, in fact, a “free speech” organization.
It is quite simply dishonest to describe TPUSA as a “free speech” organization and not even mention the “Professor Watchlist,” as NPR just did. Reporting on a crime does not entail adopting the victim’s views.

Yeah, if the CIA or the NSA or the FBI wants to surveil you, they're going to surveil you. But all that wizardry is expensive and time-consuming and very few people are ever enough of a priority to do it.
Everyone, absolutely everyone can make it *very inconvenient* to surveil them.

I don't know what's worse, the smarmy "AOC is a complicit zionist fascist fed also lol the govt can and routinely does hack all our phones all the time you dummies" QTs or the replies talking about laser microphones
What are some accessible Infosec & Opsec resources that activists, journalists, and organizers can turn to in preparation for the Trump admin?
Preparing for a fascist regime can feel scary and paralyzing. This seems like an area where people can take control w/ concrete steps.

Given that cops have been admitting to using Flock cameras to surveil, stalk, and harass women they know--- and in some cases, were in relationships with--- I have more questions.
Cops put this woman in solitary for three days on the strength of Flock "evidence" that she had killed people in a hit and run. Her car, meanwhile, had zero visible damage. But cops told her the "damage" was consistent with the accident. They believed Flock over their own eyes.
Lindsey Isaacs was wrongly held in solitary confinement for 3 days after Flock cameras falsely flagged her car.

Senator Wyden can’t say it plainly without losing his security clearance, but this raises the alarm that Kash & crew have decided they can illegally surveil Americans without a warrant.
I sent a classified letter to House and Senate colleagues about a secret interpretation of surveillance law that every American should be concerned about.
Representative Massie is right. The Constitution requires EVERY member to vote against a clean reauthorization.

Medical institutions treat trans people as a population to surveil, manage, and dissect, rather than as people to assist or treat with basic dignity.
Oslo University Hospital caught using trans patients' journals for research purposes:
- Without the patients' consent to participate in research
- Affecting minors
- 1700 of them
- Taking highly sensitive information from said journals
This is a HUGE breach.
