It's why the populists and nationalists, patriots in general, should be running our private intelligence networks.

Why

1. it's not illegal

2. economies of scale

3. provides some shielding and cover from lawfare

4. acts as a nucleation hub for many other organizations.

5. the payoff is compounding



Number one is good, because it effectively makes it much harder for the regime to use the (comparatively) unlimited physical force it has access to without creating liabilities, which you can capitalize on to fund your very organization.

Number two is great, because suddenly buying used phones, sim cards, burners, setting up safehouses for whistleblowers, legal firms for springing dissidents through the courts, all of that is cheaper when you have a reputation and an organized, disciplined crew that has logistics flows properly prepared.

Number three, this one is obvious. Mission statements, letters-of-intent for events, in-house lawyers, a recognizable name that people can become familiar with, all of that goes a long way to protecting your people.

Number four is just the natural follow through of all the others. Want to start a whistleblower organization? Lot harder for the regime's spies to use network analysis if all your people who get in on the ground-floor have intelligence training and burners from day one instead of the bumbling-in-the-dark-leaving-a-digital-trail that so many people do when they are first becoming acquinted and experienced in intel before getting involved in the broader community.
This is just one example.

Number five is basically a follow-on from number four, but each organization basically covers the other, like armor plating, helping to insulate, diffuse, anonymize, train, and boostrap each subsidiary. A cycle of virtue that is so beneficial, the idea of a private intelligence network would be worth it purely on this basis alone.

If you want freedom, organize.
