@cferdinandi I can only dearly suggest getting on #Freenet #Hyphanet *now*.
If Trumpists already go after schoolchildren whose political opinion annoys them, you need a place to organize confidentially, and you need it as soon as possible — ideally last week.
I’ve been warning of that for years and now that time has come.
Also invite your friends:

Freenet / Hyphanet is Free Software, developed by a community of volunteers.

This is some seriously dystopian shit!

@cferdinandi Not quite: signal provides you a way to send encrypted messages moderated by a server (that knows who talks to whom and when, but not the content; though Signal devs try to limit what they can know).
Hyphanet is a fully decentralized network that also hides this metadata by hiding messages among small encrypted pieces it uses for general communication and uploads to computers of other participants of the network.
So outside observers cannot see whether you write at all.

@ArneBab Is this like Signal?

@cferdinandi Hyphanet is also still much less user friendly: it was started in 1999 and its interface has not yet been brought up to modern standards.
It has been in continuous use the past 25 years and is under active (though slow) development.

@cferdinandi Signal would already have helped the kid stay safe in this situation. But remember that one of the supporters of Trump is Peter Thiel who owns Palantir.
The core product of Palantir uses metadata to find targets. You’ll want to get ready before that’s getting trained on people who annoy Trump.
