How to Organize Safely in the Age of Surveillance From threat modeling to encrypted collaboration apps, we’ve collected experts’ tips and tools for safely and effectively building a group—even while being targeted and tracked by the powerful.

News you can use, from the @wired.com security team (who are the best in the biz).

They asked technologists, activists, aid groups, and cybersecurity experts for guidance on how to organize and collaborate in an age of surveillance. Here’s the result:

The American president is more insulated from accountability than a British royal.

Our political system provides the elite with immunity. It has to change.

She never lived to see this moment, but it’s worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre.

She had the courage to speak out against power and privilege when it was just her word against Andrew’s.

Thanks to her, justice & accountability may finally have its day.

Black & white picture of a woman on a telephone. Text reads : Yeah, he said "it's NO BIG DEAL.. just bring your marriage license in to vote!" ..mhmm.. then I helped him find the ketchup in the refrigerator door.

I understand what you’re saying but I think you’re making my point that women’s ideas should be listened to and not balanced against the patriarchal structure that’s been in place. The playing field is not equal; the boxes to check are made up by and for men. Vote your conscience.

Whatever path the woman who is willing to be in leadership. We should listen to women like AOC who seem to be possible candidates and we don’t just decree that they must check certain boxes. We listen to their plan, and we set aside our preconceived notions of what makes someone “ready”.

That might not be the best or even an available path to get a woman into a position of executive leadership. I’m saying women shouldn’t need to follow the same steps men take. If we are able to open our collective minds a little more and follow the woman’s lead, maybe they have a better plan.

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."

Normalize women in charge. Support women getting there. Challenge patriarchal thinking at every level and inside every one of us. It’s there and it isn’t working.

That’s a great start. I’m just saying what has worked in the past for men may not be how women need to do it.

How is a woman supposed to get the executive experience? Women have not had the luxury men have in being gently led into leadership positions with patience and assistance until they’re “ready”. Women have had to gain the experience as they go because they aren’t and won’t be given that luxury.

Same reason we aren’t calling and messaging politicians constantly or doing a general strike:

Social media became the outlet for expressing our discontent- and it naturally inhibits further action.

Calling a politician’s office either listens to you- or they piss you off and you call until they do

You can change your tax status and defer payment for a year, then also request an extension to filing in the next year. Put the money you would have otherwise paid in into a bank account so you can pay it when the time comes, but this gives you a year and a half of not supporting concentration camps

We are in a state of collective denialism. And we have been there for a very long time. People truly lack imagination.

JFC, cut that shit in half and you’ve eradicated hunger, provided healthcare for all and made education free for all Americans. What the fuck are we doing?

A personal indicator that I have been stressed since the local ICE operations started:

My average resting heart rate has been 5-8 bpm higher than the previous equivalent time period.

ICE is domestic terrorism. ICE must be abolish. This is the reasonable, centrist position.

#MAGAMike thinks that ppl dying bc they can’t get Healthcare, murders of peacefully protesting US CITIZENS, sexual abuse by Billionaires of kids are ‘Democrat theatrics’.

I was based a Bragg for awhile, if the Commander-in-Chief showed up and gave a political speech, as an officer I would been extremely concerned about it. A military facility is not the place for political speeches. If he told me who I had to vote for, I would have been pissed.

What a timeline! For those that don’t know, China has been slowly enveloping Russia’s land over in northern Siberia and Putin cannot do much about it because his military is so spread out.
