How Immigrants and Protesters Are Being Caught in ICE’s AI Dragnet
Federal agents are using AI, facial recognition, and drones to monitor protests and immigrants. But is its increasing use warranted?Jason Nelson (Decrypt)
Much discussion about “opsec” (a term I don’t love when talking about people exercising their rights, but whatever) at protests today, including about phones and Faraday containers.
A Faraday container is probably less useful here than you think it is, but if you do rely on one, make sure it actually works. Here’s a post I did a while back on the ins and outs of containing RF: mattblaze.org/blog/faraday/

I don’t know a ton about faraday bags. But if I’m in a situation where I want my phone to be inert and useless, is it enough to power it off?
I can’t imagine situations where a faraday bag is required, and I think I might pull it out of the bag for something. Seems to me I would just keep it in the bag the whole time, so I might as well turn it off.
Are there threats to powered off phones that are not in faraday bags? I am asking because I don’t know, not because I’m doubting or challenging.
Seems like a good reason to make consumer protection laws that define “powered off” and require it to be possible.
Thanks for the tip.
