Overkill? Maybe. Foolproof? Nope. But hey, where my phone is, I am. I couldn't have been there - my phone was here, and dude, this is 2025. No-one goes anywhere without their phone. Get a grip.

After the protest, return home. Get on your phone, and message all your friends that you were so bummed to have missed the event - did anyone end up going?

Your friends all reply that they couldn't make it either. What a shame. You'll get the next one.

Wear nondescript clothes: something you'd be fine getting rid of. Cover your hair and face. Cover any tattoos. Bring a change of shoes. Wear layers- after the protest, strip the outer layer and either dispose of it or toss it. Go to a cafe. Or the bookstore. Or the park. PAY CASH.

3. If you are going with friends, determine a central meet point. Remind your friends to leave their tracking devices at home. While at the library (see step 2), print directions to and from the protest and that central location. Go protest.

2. Get to the library. Drive, bike, walk - however you can. At the library, check out a book. Any book. Preferably one you want to read. Go to one of the public computers and search the protest details. Location. Time. Nearby amenities: cafes, bookstores, parks. PRINT IT OUT.

1. Leave the tracking device at home. Leave it. If you already know how to get to your local library, great. If not, look it up: anyone can go to the library. This is innocuous. When you go to the library, leave the tracking device at home. Print directions if needed.

"But how will I get there if I don't have my map/mysic/communication/etc?"

Like this.

If your anonymity is important to you, leave the handheld tracking device at home.
