It's Called A Stingray. The Way These Work Is They Simulate A Cell Tower. Your Phone Is Programmed To

It's called a stingray. The way these work is they simulate a cell tower. Your phone is programmed to connect to the strongest cell phone tower. The device is small enough that it can be carried in a car. As such, law enforcement or other groups with access to one can simply drive around a protest and collect your data. If you absolutely need a phone, cryptophones have IMSI capture countermeasures or alerts. Please research cryptophones before buying one as not all are made equal and some wont have these features. The only way to be truly safe is to leave your phone at home.

State law enforcement tends to be extremely secretive about the use of Stringray. Some states require law enforcement to have warrents to use these, but it has been seen that law enforcement will use these in nearly all investigations regardless of having a warrant. States confirmed by the ACLU to have these devices are, Washington, Nevada, Arizona, Alaska, Missouri, New Mexico, Georgia, Massachusetts, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Pennsylvania, Delaware, California, Texas, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Tennessee, North Carolina, Virginia, Florida, Maryland, and New York. If your state is not on this list, it does not mean that they are not using this device. It just means police haven't disclosed usage.

I'm sorry but it's way too sketchy to have to "sign up" for a protest. There's no reason you should have to give anyone your full name, email, phone number, and/or address in order to march in the streets. People are getting arrested left and right because cops have access to information that connects people to the protests they were at. If an organization is having people "sign up to join the fight," all the cops need to do is access that list.

Just go. Don't leave a fucking paper trail.
