In the US cops have been known to deploy ‘Stingray’ devices that spoof a cell tower and create a record of every phone in the area. In the context of a protests, these records could be used to determine who attend multiple events, who the likely organizers are, etc to create lists of undesirable people who may receive special attention from law enforcement.

More specifically, if shit goes down at a protest there is digital record of your attendance. It’s very easy to go from a peaceful protester to a criminal in the eyes of the government.

First time I’ve seen WG mentioned on Lemmy. Broadly anti government with a lot else mixed in is a great description lmao.

Too bad it caught a ban. The community generally did a great job at keeping the racist assholes out.

You can fire .223 in a firearm rated for 5.56mm pressure

.308 is the opposite. It has more pressure than 7.62mm

Most any new barrel is going to be rated for both pressures now a days, but always good to doublecheck!
