An internal email obtained by ProPublica said the agency made the change to be “consistent” with a Trump executive order.

      And find a way to have it automatically sync to the cloud, with automatic release if certain reporting in parameters aren’t met

            Yeah. The current best option is probably a regular video + cloud sync like Google Photos.

        Hopefully they don’t start carrying something that jams signals to disable the ability for something to sync to a cloud.

        If that ends up being the case, “evidence” of crimes isn’t going to help anyone being victimized much. 😓

          They’ve already had devices to capture cellular connections for a while now, I’d imagine jamming bands would be even easier.

            Signal jammers are available for purchase online and depending on purpose are affordable and compact.

            That said; often they are illegal for civilians.

            I feel like if you found a way to do a mesh net (ive been really into Meshtastic as of late, but the data throughput of LoRA would not cut it), and have other members of the mesh sync the file (encrypted and compressed) that would work. Share the unlock code with a friend or a small group, that way you always have backups on other people’s devices.

              I also, too, find lora Radio to be interesting. I think it has many applications to deal with tyranny. I could see them outlawing it at least for civilians.

                All wireless technology would be a game of cat&mouse anyway, they cant jam everything, the product would just have to be developed to take advantage of multiple open or common parts of the spectrum, like the 2.4 or 5 ghz ranges used by wi-fi.

                All hypothetical, im not a product designer nor an engineer who would be able to design the specifics.
