I am sure you all did this, but just in case - if you go to a protest; turn off your location services. Better to not bring your phone at all and use a cheap disposable or something...

At this point, the idiots at the capitol are mainly getting arrested because they had their location services on lmao.

Edit. I’m being told that my boomer tier understanding of phones is problematic. Read below plz.

    Btw your plan should include writing your birthday and a contact phone number in big clear letters in permanent ink on your arm directly to your skin.

    This way no matter what happens you can be found and you can contact someone or someone can contact someone for you. In jail with a concussion? You have the 2 pieces of info on your arm that you'll need to contact someone to help get you out.

    Also it's okay to be the person who is the contact and it's okay to not go to a protest to be that person. As often as I attend actions I also stay home or nearby with my car to evacuate, provide supplies, etc for comrades who need it. Support and logistics are praxis too. If everyone is arrested nobody is there to help bail folks out. It's okay to be that guy too
