Yeah. It's bad, and also why people in far left movements have been telling journalists and photographers to not take photos for years, but were always shouted down by the 'but journalistic integrity and documentation and free speech blah blah.'

I did appreciate that im the local protests here, organizers were adamant about warning everybody not to take pics, and compliance was near unanimous, but I never thought about Journalists taking pics and exposing everybody

Phones at home.Bring a change of clothes.No photos. Cover yr face.Have a buddy and discuss boundaries.Bring water and a snack.
Basic protesting 101 stuff, but so many people are engaging in street struggles for the first time, it's hard to get this sort of basic precautionary stuff out
― blue light or electric light (the table is the table), Saturday, 25 July 2020 15:30 (three years ago) link
I think a lot of organizers did a great job of communicating it, at least here. cell phones/pics were a problem early on here, and organizers quickly put an end to it very quickly through mere communication on social media/videos etc.

How does 'phones at home' and 'no photos' protesting 101 work in capturing evidence of ongoing police brutality?
― オニモ (onimo), Saturday, 25 July 2020 20:44 (three years ago) link
not sure how useful that is in the actual cases (where they just lie and hairsplit anyway), and it's not like we need more documentation to find out what's wrong.

After years of police body cams and bystander cellphone video, it’s clear that evidentiary images on their own don’t bring about change. What’s missing is power.
― sleeve, Saturday, 25 July 2020 21:20 (three years ago) link
on their own, no. but the images are still important.
― the quar on drugs (Simon H.), Saturday, 25 July 2020 21:21 (three years ago) link
really not so sure about that given the nature of the modern media landscape
― sleeve, Saturday, 25 July 2020 21:24 (three years ago) link
the people who would be swayed by the images don't see them

Yeah so much of public response has been shaped by video— like the old man being shoved over, the veteran getting clubbed, etc.

nypd police union sued to prevent the release of 20 years of discipline records but forgot mention pro publica lol
Propublica's release comes as other entities with access to the data- the @NYCLU, the CCRB and the city - have been barred from publishing the same data after a temporary restraining order following a suit by the police union (they forgot to name Propublica in the suit!).4/— Cory Doctorow #BLM (@doctorow) July 27, 2020

for anyone following the LA county DA race, here's a long thread covering a george gascon Q&A. gascon is running to the incumbent's left. gascon is not perfect (see thread, literally was a cop, not in a rhetorical "top cop" sense, but literally an LAPD patrol officer) but the incumbent is truly awful.
there's an LMU hosted convo with Gascon right now, not going to live tweet it, but definitely will give some impressions— Getty House Autonomous Zone (@bushidosquirrel) July 29, 2020

good news is no innocent people were hurt despite apparent intentions. bad news is recovery is expected & it sounds like they fucking shot a dog, again (hard to tell with the passive to the point of abstraction voice in these things)
didn’t that racist sex pest- the one trying to unseat the other one- just now demand more funding for the cops? that might help them kill their intended targets more efficiently
