"In this case, the Marseille Gendarmerie's Research Section was reinforced by the SDAT (Anti-Terrorist Subdivision) […] under the vague notion of “extreme violence”. The means at their disposal are considerable — telephony, wiretapping, physical surveillance, spyware, facial recognition, GPS tracking, etc."

"Law enforcement surveillance isn't always secret. These technologies can be discovered in news articles and government meeting agendas, in company press releases and social media posts. It just hasn't been aggregated before. Through a combination of crowdsourcing and data journalism, we are creating the largest-ever repository of information on which law enforcement agencies are using what surveillance technologies."

"A burner phone is a single-use phone, unattached to your identity, which can theoretically be used to communicate anonymously in situations where communications may be monitored. Whether or not using a burner phone is itself a “best practice” is up for debate, but if you've made the choice to use one, there are several things you should keep in mind."

(el) Οι καλύτερες πρακτικές για την χρήση καρτοκινητών
"Ένα καρτοκινητό είναι ένα κινητό μίας χρήσης όπου θεωρητικά χρησιμοποιείται ανώνυμα σε περιπτώσεις που οι επικοινωνίες μπορεί να παρακολουθούνται. Παρόλο που υπάρχουν αρκετές αμφιβολίες για το εάν η χρήση τους είναι σωστή ή όχι, εάν πήρες την απόφαση να χρησιμοποιήσεις ένα υπάρχουν κάποια πράγματα τα οποία ίσως χρειαστεί να σκεφτείς."
(fr) Les bonnes pratiques pour utiliser un téléphone jetable"Un téléphone jetable (en anglais burner phone) est un téléphone à usage unique qui n'est pas relié à ton identité et peut théoriquement être utilisé pour communiquer de manière anonyme dans les situations où tes communications sont susceptibles d'être surveillées et interceptées. Leur utilisation même fait débat et n'est pas nécessairement une "bonne pratique", mais si tu fais le choix d'en utiliser un, il faut prêter attention à quelques points précis."

"Parece que se ha olvidado que hace 10 años no teníamos móviles y que si no nos gustan podemos vivir sin ellos. Si no quieres dejarte asustar por el miedo, quieres seguir movilizándote contra la injusticia, si quieres desarrollar un pensamiento crítico, te invitamos a leer lo que viene a continuación. Bueno, la verdad es que nos encantaría que quemes tu móvil y te vamos a dar buenas razones por hacerlo o por lo menos para pensártelo…"

(eu) Erre zure mugikorra!
"Badirudi ahaztu dugula orain hamar urte mugikorrik ez geneukala, eta gustoko ez baditugu eurak gabe bizi gaitezkeela. Bai, bai. Egi-egia esan: Ikaragarri gustatuko litzaiguke zure mugikorra erreko bazenu, eta oso arrazoi onak emango dizkizugu hala egin dezazun edo, behintzat, zalantza egin dezazun."
(it) Brucia il telefono"L'idea di studiare le tematiche di questo opuscolo è nata in un momento femminista tra donne, lesbiche, froci e trans+ di scambio e condivisione sulla lotta contro le frontiere ed i dispositivi repressivi costruiti attorno ed a partire da esse. Nel cercare approfondimenti su cellulari e telefonia ci siamo imbattutx in questo lavoro che per i suoi anni era fatto molto bene. Qualche tempo dopo abbiamo deciso di tradurlo ed aggiornarlo, già che ci stavamo lavorando sopra abbiamo tolto le parti che non ci convincevano del testo. Quindi quanto leggerete non è la traduzione del testo, ma quello che ci sembrava interessante estrapolare con varie parti ampliate o eliminate."

"EFF's “Street-Level Surveillance” project shines light on the advanced surveillance technologies that law enforcement agencies routinely deploy in our communities. These resources are designed for members of the public, advocacy organizations, journalists, defense attorneys, and policymakers who often are not getting the straight story from police representatives or the vendors marketing this equipment."
