Maybe move to a country where politicians don't want to return to the medieval age and where the president is not seeking revenge?

By not posting about it online or over the phone. Use a Tor browser to search it out if you can
Tor Browser comes as a mobile app too.
Mobile is not safe in any kind (instead maybe Linux phones, without mobile network)
You haven't convinced anyone to get Tails yet. Try telling the Facebook user in these comments.
I am not a US-citizen nor am I a woman (if I was, I would probably be a little too old to need that kind of help) but, very naively I'll admit it, this is really not the kind of guide I would have imagined would become so urgently needed.
It seems a very well made guide, with a lot of very useful suggestions.
Which makes me feel even more sad to realize this is indeed useful and very much needed.
There’s really not much you can do. There’s just too many cameras in the public spaces. If any government official wants to see who’s visited an abortion clinic, they can just have the local traffic camera company tell them.
We need to ban the government getting around the 4th amendment by partnering with private companies.
Depends on how advanced the surveillance systems are. Yeah, I would consider driving to be impossible to do anonymously - but when it comes to walking or using public transport, depends. I am not sure just how well they can track a person with a covered face on those.
they can, and China already publicly has been for a few years using gait analysis, i.e. looking at how you walk. in his book, Edward Snowden mentions putting a rock in his shoe to change up his gait while walking in Russia
Yes, I am aware of such technology - they announced similar capabilities in our existing surveillance system. I know that it is most likely not as advanced as China's, because that's how it usually is here. However, it is not clear just how good it is in practice - at least in some cases, they've been overselling it (at least in regards to recognizing obstructed faces). So I am not sure just how dangerously accurate said gait recognition is, especially since they have much better facial recognition to depend on.
You don't have to drive all the way to the actual place
Yeah, but I don't see the point of driving here at all.
USA has become so third world country. They should make decisions based on scientific information not based on some conservative beliefs.
third world means neither usa, nor east (Russia-China) sympathizer. This phrase is also commonly used to refer to countries with developing, weaker economies. Now USA is neither. Americans can deny, ease, erase, paint the history built on racism and conservativism, it will always rise up to the top. This is exactly what happened again. Shame on everyone who voted valid. No matter for who. Invalid voters and non-voters did right. Democracy has always enabled the most vile to rank up to the top. We heard about Peistratos and Hitler, who were enabled to commit heinous crimes against humanity, while being democratically elected. This is why anarchism, despite its vulrenabilities, is still the best system, that actually works very well in smaller communities.
I think David Graeber and David Wengrove make a case that it has worked in bigger communities too.
Pm me I know of options depending on your location, age, and how far along you are. Don't feel too bad. Sure its not a good thing but its smarter if it's a bad time in your life to care for another person. Financially or Mentally and physically. I know of multiple online and discreet services. Its better to raise someone with great care and sound mind for both sides than to be financially incapable and bringing someone in with no means of care for raising a good human than to wing it.
Lemmy DMs are NOT private/secure, use SimpleX.
OK. Will do thanks. They haven't responded anyhow. If these messages aren't secure how do you share the username or info to a contact? To start the chat
You can use Lemmy DMs for that. So long as the actual communication is E2E encrypted.
Tap the bottom left profile button, Your SimpleX address and Share address.
Optional: Tap the same profile button, Your chat profiles, Add profile and use that, so we don't see your main profile.
Cool thanks! It's new to me. I just downloaded it from Fdroid though.

Doing anything on Facebook is the opposite of private.
