    Leave your cellphones at home, mask up, wear gloves, cover your tattoos / apply temporary fake tattoos, park WAY off site / don’t take any route to or from that exposes your license plate to cameras (like turnpike’s, etc).

        I wonder if it would be possible to create endless false positives for these

          AFAIK they have car mounted ones now that pop up on the laptop in the police car. I would imagine that anything you could do would also be flagged by the cop driving behind you.

            I was thinking like an LED display that just shows random sequences of plates on the side of the road. Basically to poison the data. Ex: “It says your car went to california and new jersey in the same day”

                Well at this point they’re going to arrest people for complaining about tariffs. Might as well do something to deserve it.

      Leave your smartwatch at home, use short range radio/lora, change your clothes half way there, consider using disposable shoes, bring cash for things like food and water, mirror sunglasses…

      Anyone else?

        I typically just use my cybernetic surrogate for protests. It’s customizable like Mr. Potato Head, so I currently have it configured to look like the adult love child of Bruce Willis, John Travolta, Nick Cage, and Kristi Noem.

        Pull the fuse to the telematics/SOS/cellular radio on your car. Don’t bring any health trackers or airtags. No Bluetooth anything. If you have a toll transponder, remove it from your car. Probably should disable the Bluetooth in the car as well, wifi as well if it has it. Anything that can broadcast a beacon can be tracked.

    Violent incidents like

    An asshole driving in to a crowd of protesters

    Masked men claiming to be police snatching people up off the street

    Helping Netanyahu commit genocide

    Pulling Ukraine’s pants down by denying them support while Russia bends them over

    This is excellent, however I do wonder if there are similar protests for Trump considering he’s the one who’s given Melon Husk the green light to do all this. For those on the country, could you enlighten me?
