[liberationtech] urgent help needed - tools for organising distributed mass protests

[Yishay Mor]

yeah, thanks. as I said - I'm looking for advice that doesn't include lines

working with doesn't have access to server space, nor the capacity to
deploy and maintain services on one. But I'll make a note of this in case
something comes up.
