SMH @ activists using techno-fascist platforms for communications during an operation subject to state-actor level interference. I thought we recognised and acknowledged this problem 15-20 years ago already.

      Maybe the aim of the flotilla was to just make people aware that there are activists who are worried about gaza. Just to create media buzz.

      Keep in mind the tweet refers to the group chat as used by the flotilla to communicate with their European supporters, not necessarily for their internal communications.

      They literally broadcast their location publicly on their website.

      This public tracking is the only reason they didn’t all get murdered on the last boat
