WORD OF CAUTION:
Your biggest danger is *not* that they'll try to incite
violence, but that they'll send in a private investigator to go
hang out with you guys afterwards, pretend to be one of you and
wait for you to take your masks off. I noticed no one's talking
about this on the boards. Can you please pass this info around? OSA
doesn't want you arrested yet. They want to know who you are.
Won't be hard for him/her to take pictures of you all, either,
since everyone's bringing a camera.
Protection from this: Only leave the protests with long-time
friends. If you have to leave the protest with an Anon you have
just met, don't take your masks off in front of each other.
If necessary, bring other clothing.
* Wear nothing that has big names or pictures on it. You are easier to follow.
* Be wary of strangers asking too many personal questions.
* If you suspect you are followed, don't be afraid to into large stores and quickly get lost in there exiting through a different exit. Change your coat - take off your hat/put one on - put on a light rain coat that you have brought with you, etc.
* Don't be afraid to go to the nearest cop station and say your were in a peaceful protest earlier and that you suspect your are being followed.
* Use windows reflection to see across the street and behind you, to spot if you are being followed.
* NEVER head directly to your destination afterwards, use twisting routes and never the same route twice. Again, stop every once in a while to check for followers! At times move fast, turn, move fast again, turn and repeat as you feel necessary.
