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.
@Rob_T_Firefly I agree with the spirit of this, and it makes sense strategically.
(I've even tried to automate the process after the last protest I went to, with mixed results: https://fortyseven.github.io/blurryface/).
In fact, you reminded me of that with this before I left this morning; I actually picked up a 360 cam that I was going to bring to document the event, but I ended up leaving it home and just took some select pics.
But there's just SO many ordinary people there taking photos and video... Even at the one we had here in Middletown, CT, it was just wall to wall cameras and video. I don't think it's very effective to abstain from it . It's just inevitable.
But yeah, I know, we can at least try not to contribute.
