a friend of a friend was taken by ICE today. we are trying to figure out how to help them. here are current problems:
- we don’t know where they are or how to track them
- we aren’t sure who to contact. so far all the ideas we’ve had are to get in touch with the ACLU and SPLC but i don’t want to sit here and do nothing while we wait to hear back from who we’ve already contacted
attached is a picture of some mushrooms since text only posts aren’t allowed here (and i’ll immediately take this post down if there’s a more relevant comm somewhere, i’m not trying to break the rules)
Check out meshtastic devices. It’s possible to get GPS info on encrypted channels, completely outside of normal networks. There are a few caveats. I’m not sure how well a GPS receiver would work under a car, and you have to be close or be on the same network as a physically close node.
Yeah, I’m thinking something longer range. Not a bad idea though.
