When it's related to groceries it's actually called a steak-out.

Paper is the new privacy measure
Always has been.
Protip: for anyone seeking to use typewriters to further circumvent surveillance, please know that the ribbon is a complete log of every keystroke. Also, the pressure your pen makes on paper can be recovered from soft-ish surfaces and sheets underneath it. Act accordingly.
We have messaging apps that are secure and can timed autodelete by text “for everyone”.
And yet people keep on using Facebook Messenger.
And your printer puts microscopic marks that can be traced back to the specific one.
I can't wait for glued on words from magazines to come back
Careful. If truly determined people are hunting, microscopic particles trapped in the glue could be traced back to you. The specific magazines might also be identified from the letters and traced back to you.
That's why I use magazines from the dentists office.
Your dentist? Bad move.
Or the DNA all over them, right guys?
Partially related: Grocery store apps "tailoring" the price of groceries to the individual? Oh fuck you motherfuckers, cash for me from now on.
This comment of the lady taking the picture really reminds me of the early Nazi era regime where people were hunting for undocumented Jews. This makes me incredibly sad to see history is repeating itself yet again.
There are still WWII veterans alive that fought the Nazis in Germany just to watch it repeat itself in their own fucking country.
I've actually started keeping screenshots of people I know who are supportive of ICE, in part so I have my own little database of people who I know can't be trusted, and so that I can hopefully publish them later when these same people try to pretend they didn't support this.
Gestapo/Stasi vibes all over.
During Gestapo and Stasi times most informants did their best to remain anonymous because no one likes snitches. Openly following someone and bragging about it is sociopathic even by nazi and Stalinist standards.
Little tip, put the duress pin as your birth date. Because that's the first thing that a law enforcement officer might try. Then the phone deletes itself and they can't claim that you did it because they were the ones to enter it, unprompted.
How do i configure a duress pin on android? Is it a native feature or do i need an app? Using lineage os btw
Ideally it should silently delete just some pre-selected things. If we are coerced into giving the pin away, then the phone resetting itself would invite some retaliation. If it just silently deletes the data of a notes app, it would probably go unnoticed.

Duress PIN is a native feature of GrapheneOS. It is one of many privacy friendly features in GrapheneOS.
When I think about how Google could relatively inexpensively back-port those features into Android, and how they have not done so... it makes me feel uncomfortable with how long I trusted Google with most of my digital identity.
Edit: I'm not aware of another good way to set a duress pin. When I search for "Android duress pin" all I find, at the moment, are links to GrapheneOS.
Time to bring back the proud American tradition of shooting Nazis.
I would prefer the bat method. They should feel it.

Glad you included a picture. Based on text, I thought you were suggesting we get Batman.
This is very true. Minneapolis suburb here. They are following even old ladies back to their homes 30 min away.
So important to document all these tactics and counter-tactics. It will also come to parts of Europe soon. Sweden has under the current government implemented prisons for children and forced government employees to report suspected undocumented children and families. And the far-right has not even officially been included in the government yet. We probably have to prepare here too.
In France we have people on far-right billionaire-funded yet widely popular TV channel openly advocating for the adoption of ICE tactics.
We’ve also already got special administrative prisons with inhumane conditions for undocumented migrants for a while. Likewise, on paper, the far-right has never participated in any government since 1945.
Let’s not forget that the EU has delegated arbitrary arrest and violent policing of migrants to other states for quite a while now.
Dark times ahead, we need to fight now, but, indeed, also prepare for a worsening of the situation.
How are we supposed to live side by side with these people?
Unless those on the attacking side (MAGA) decide they don't want to murder more of us, I'm not sure we can. The first civil war was incredibly bloody and tensions between the sides never settled down fully. We are in this situation partly because there is no way to have a compromise with people that believe some of our society's members aren't human. The white supremacist view of slave owners and supporters of slavery never went away, it needs to be cut out from the root.
We need more community defense classes now more than ever. Seriously!
I fucking loathe conservatives. They are proud Nazis but scoff at the use of the term. But it's the only term that really describes them. Fucking Nazis.
But it’s the only term that really describes them.
Fascists.
Germany 1930s. We all know the playbook.
This is so sad. But the upside is there are apparently enough people that don't want others kidnapped they are delivering groceries and are willing to eat paper if (illegally) stopped by ICE. Y'all should be celebrated forever...
