Reposted by Books Against BordersPuff the Magic Hater @mskellymhayes.bsky.social · 27/01/2026This makes more sense, but it still isn't a good idea. It's important that a thoughtful, conscientious person on the ground decides when to film and when not to. Sometimes, protesters break the law. If everyone's continuously filming everything, there's a lot to subpoena. 518538
