Some of you protesting are far too into publicly posting identifiable pics and videos of folks in protest crowds without good reason.

If you brought a camera to the protest point it at the authorities, not your compatriots. Document and publicize incidents of abuse, but don't facilitate your fellow protestors being identified and punished for showing up. Assume every face you post will be recognized and catalogued. They're not there to be your photo op.

@Vonskinnback @Rob_T_Firefly I wouldn't equate Jan 6 with the No Kings protest. What they did was an attack on democracy, not a protest. I plan to protest today, and I don't mind if my face will be recorded.

@Klaxun @Rob_T_Firefly you might not, but don't take away someone else's right to anonymity. Plus I'm definitely not equating the two, the January 6 arseholes were celebrating the end of democracy and their part in it, they paid for that hubris, I would expect the anti-fascist movement to have a little bit more sense & understanding, don't make it easy for the stupid people who will look to punish those who fight back against their tyranny. Be smart & see this through to victory...

@Klaxun
That's not what Baron said.

They identified and caught the J6 people through photos they posted on social media.

Don't think for a second that the government or its agents might not use the photos posted to social media to identify and target people.

THAT'S what Baron was talking about.

@xinit @Klaxun @Rob_T_Firefly they already have meta & twitter in their pocket, not to mention apple & Google, topped off by Microsoft & Amazon AWS, they have the government data through Doge & Peter Theil is working on that as we speak, hiding what we do is going to take proper gorilla IT structures with people covertly operating & reporting what is happening from within those IT organisations, because once they find you, it won't matter if you have committed a crime or not...
