While this article is a nice sentiment, please do not represent Signal as meaningfully encrypted. That's dangerously false, especially in the wake of US v Lira-Prado which now holds that your phone contents are not subject to your Miranda rights.

So sad 🥺; 90 years ago the #SA ( #Sturmabteilung /Stormtroopers ) spread terror all over Germany - when I regard the news about #ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) , it reminds me of.

Indivisible National is calling for Action this weekend to protest the shooting of Nicole Good under Ice Out for Good... I hope something can get firmly established here in Albuquerque I'll be there

You should remove the paywall permanently. Far right propaganda sites are free to spread their lies to the ignorant. Yet, the Left, that claims to speak the truth, hides the truth behind a paywall. Thanks for helping Brietbart and the like spread their BS unhampered

Use a VPN and apps like Wickr Me and such that don't save messages to a server. Check where the apps are based, too (I haven't checked Wickr, it's just the suggestion that comes to mind. Time to return to IRC, too, for coordinating groups.

I have a WIRED subscription but I'm delighted to see the removal of the paywall here. For some can't-miss subjects, I think removing paywalls (or offering a paid à la carte or ads-heavy option) is an important public service.

Insightful article. But I feel uncomfortable with it. We should be worried about taking our phones to a demonstration. When we use our right to demonstrate. To freely express our opinion. About things we care about. Because privacy and coms integrity might be infridged. By LAW ENFORCEMENT. 🤔

I honestly don’t know if it is possible to peacefully protest in the USA any longer. It’s a high risk activity that could have lifelong consequences. Go prepared. I’ll leave that to the reader to interpret.

Much appreciated. I'm beside myself at tbe moment and need to reel in my rage before it does more harm than good. I'm in the process of signing up for the same training that our sweet soul in Minneapolis trained for before being murdered by ICE. Thanks for the anchor. ❤️

Thank you for caring about your readers first! I'm too well known in the left side of politics up to the state level to erase my footprint on the Internet and frankly I don't care. I will not so easily be disappeared by the Trump Gestapo.

“…to be even more certain that your phone won’t be tracked, keep it in a Faraday bag that blocks all of its radio communications. Open the bag only when necessary. Holmes herself uses and recommends the Mission Darkness Faraday.”

Sorry to be That Person but there's no point in dropping the paywall if you're not going to do something about the 227 adtech trackers on that page, including the collection of location data about your readers, which data brokers are selling to ICE www.404media.co/inside-ices-...

Hello everybody. You can purchase a *disposable* drone w camera controllable from 150 feet away as it flies for 15 minutes. Under $30 on EBAY. No ICE-to-person/car confrontation. Much safer for everyone.

Is one just supposed to be so afraid they cower in their homes and let their rights, way of life and country be taken away. Oh hell no! Life has risks. Walking out your front door is a risk. I refuse to be on my deathbed thinking how fortunate I was not to have fought for my country.
