I have a big no soliciting sign on my door, when sales people knock anyway I make it a point to waste as much of their time as I can and not buy anything.

    Only do this with no electronic devices on your person, or with them packed away in a faraday bag. Everywhere you go with a bluetooth or wifi antenna is being logged by a dozen data brokers, and the gov has access to all of it.

    You might get away with it once, but your radio fingerprint in range 2+ times of an incident is a pattern that’s easy to spot.

    This goes for ALL resistance activity, including simple protesting. The nazis are building lists, and they can use those lists to destroy your life in many more ways than assault and imprisonment (e.g. covertly limit your employment opportunities, housing options, or credit/loans).

      If they’re good at collecting and analyzing the data, you stopping there for long enough to do this might be enough. Also, assume there are cameras, on the vehicle and the area nearby.

        Security is not binary. Obviously you should be wearing something that covers your face, but you can’t ultimately protect yourself from drones.

        The goal is to be smarter than average and defend yourself from the things in your control. The fact they’re so heavily dependent on surveillance capitalism means they’re less likely to use alt methods.
