MissConstrue<p>Ok folks, alert time with an action plan. It is apparently legal now for ICE to enter k-12 schools. Most American schools have a lockdown system that doesn't allow the public into the front door without someone buzzing you in, and they frown on activism in their halls by outside agitators. (Rightly so.) </p><p>However, what you can do, during a time of calm, is make an appointment to visit people in the administration, give them your number and tell them that you can be at the school in Y, (Y=time from house, etc.), so that you can document ICE and the kids. </p><p>Police cannot stop you from filming, although they may try, so the more of you in the phone chain, the better. </p><p>We may/may not be able to stop them from kidnapping babies to sell into slavery, but we can sure as fuck document them doing it, and show the faces of the victims so their family and lawyers can identify them. <br><a href="https://mefi.social/tags/DoNotObey" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DoNotObey</span></a> <a href="https://mefi.social/tags/Resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Resist</span></a> <a href="https://mefi.social/tags/Document" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Document</span></a>.

unicorndeburgh<p>Elon Musk's employees are breaching government computer systems to seize data about us. A January 6th rioter who entered the capitol through a broken window was just put in charge of USAID.</p><p>The peaceful opposition to this is being organized on platforms like Mobilize, Discord, Facebook and Bluesky. Spreadsheets are being stored in the cloud. Messages are exchanged in email, text, Whatsapp and Signal.</p><p>If your job involves maintaining, logging and backing up systems like this, you get subpoenas for data. It seems highly likely that you'll get more of those, and also illegal, requests for data from your management or from government groups -- or nongovernment groups like DOGE.</p><p>Prepare now for how you'll respond to these requests. Obfuscate, delay, refuse, sabotage, quit?</p><p>Is there data that you're storing that isn't necessary to your business' purpose, that doesn't really need to be logged?
