[liberationtech] A Field Guide to Physical Surveillance for Journalists and Activists

[Security First]

Hi JM,

I think the article is an interesting starting point for people
thinking about the issue of physical anti/counter-surveillance for
HRDs and journalists, but there are a number of areas and techniques
which are missing from it - which are important to be able to do it
effectively. For example, team operations, trigger locations, cross
contamination, covert vs overt methods, effective surveillance
detection routes, foot vs vehicles, public transport etc etc.

We will be including a very detailed module on this in Umbrella App
but until that's out, drop me a mail and let's talk through some
aspects that might give readers some more background to the subject
for the article. Especially for activists thinking about doing this
sort of thing for the first time.

It's great to see other people bringing the physical security side
into things! :)

All the best,
Rory
