Security Culture for Activists that want to Fight Back
"In the wake of a mass doxxing campaign that lead to the firing of thousands of Americans, instigated by rightwing propagandists, and the Executives of the Federal government, the need for anyone who even casually participates in activism to begin building a Security Culture has never been more clear.
Here I'll discuss what Security Culture is, why it matters, walk through the most common threats activists face such as doxxing, harassment, state monitoring, and propaganda, then step through building a plan that includes digital, physical, communication, and emotional safety.
After we all understand the basics, I'll explain why I ignore lots of common security practices in order to go beyond a purely defensive posture by using security culture to connect with everyday people, build resilience, and strengthen community.
The goal is to transform paranoia into preparedness, so that you, and those around you, can keep showing up together. "
