    We need a contraption where a cable is connecting your body cam to a friend following you, and the recording is synched through the cable to a storage device they hold. Then if SHTF, the friend can run with the footage they have and give it a reputable journalist or ACLU.

      I feel like if you found a way to do a mesh net (ive been really into Meshtastic as of late, but the data throughput of LoRA would not cut it), and have other members of the mesh sync the file (encrypted and compressed) that would work. Share the unlock code with a friend or a small group, that way you always have backups on other people’s devices.

        I would wonder if there’s a self hosted option out there for video streaming (there’s this?) that you could set up to mirror with a few friends, that way if your home every gets searched you’ve got a friend with copies that can get it to a journalist/lawyer

        I also, too, find lora Radio to be interesting. I think it has many applications to deal with tyranny. I could see them outlawing it at least for civilians.

          Lora is in the 915mhz ISM band in the USA. This part of the spectrum is full of high power transmissions, Lora runs on such low power that it’s signals are pretty much below the noise floor. The FCC doesn’t have the teeth to regulate what they already are supposed to regulate, they aren’t going to bother with Lora. As far as communicating doing anything illegal or soon to be illegal shit, Signal is more reliable.

        Yea but the comment I replied to was talking about jamming, they’d probably be able to detect what frequency you are trasmitting on and jam those too. Only a hard-wired cable is immune to jamming.

          All wireless technology would be a game of cat&mouse anyway, they cant jam everything, the product would just have to be developed to take advantage of multiple open or common parts of the spectrum, like the 2.4 or 5 ghz ranges used by wi-fi.

          All hypothetical, im not a product designer nor an engineer who would be able to design the specifics.
