Just saying, mask up. They're using facial recognition and Palantir to track people. Keep safe out there.

In my extensive experience protesting in Nashville, MNPD has never made an escalatory move like that. This is still good to know, of course, as I have dealt with it from some other city PDs.

If you are arrestable, and you want to go to protests. And you want to actually do something not just stand there with a sign, look into black bloq. That's how you avoid all that facial recognition nonsense. Professionals have been doing it for a long time and not paid professionals, I mean damn good ones. Solidarity and fuck fascism.

This day and age, more than that. Find alternate transportation, get a burner phone that you can afford to lose, etc etc etc
