The Local Kids – Issue 9 – Summer 2023

All has changed yet everything remains the same. Several shocks have reverberated through society over the last years and changed our reality profoundly. At the same time, the monotony of daily life continues to impose itself relentlessly. Whether this observation is frightening or comforting speaks volumes about one’s perspective or mood.

Rather than confront the existential anxiety that this destructive society engenders, we might be tempted to carry on, as much as we can, as if nothing is happening. As the virulence of the Covid-19 virus and the states’ measures have tempered down, many seem keen to move on. Not everyone though. Some might consider it pesky but the question of proximity during those periods of lockdowns and curfews is still pertinent. Fear and repression made it impossible to meet each other, paralysing not only social struggles but social life itself. During the pandemic, the state made abundant use of (scientific) experts and the media to lay claim to rationality. Everything that diverged from the dominant discourse was labelled as irrational and quashed. Following suit with these binaries is to enter a game which is not ours to play and in which we have nothing to gain.

Hamburg, Germany DE/EN: Tracking technology discovered on motor scooter



[Hamburg-Germany] Tracking-Technik an Motorroller entdeckt

Im Sitz eines Motorrollers wurde in den vergangenen Tagen ein
sogenanntes „AirTag“ der Firma Apple gefunden. Der Roller wird genutzt von einer Hamburger Anarchistin, die in der Vergangenheit bereits von Überwachungs- und Ermittlungsmaßnahmen betroffen war.

Das kleine, flache Gerät von einem ungefähren Durchmesser von 3
Zentimetern und einer Höhe von weniger als 1 Zentimeter wurde durch einen augenscheinlich mit einem Cuttermesser oder ähnlichem angebrachten
Schlitz ins das Sitzpolster des Motorrollers gesteckt.
Die Vermutung, dass eine Ermittlungsbehörde oder der Verfassungsschutz für die Platzierung verantwortlich ist liegt nahe.

Apple vertreibt die AirTags ursprünglich zu dem Zweck, Gegenstände wie
Schlüsselbund, Brieftasche oder ähnliches in der unmittelbaren Umgebung des eigenen Smartphones zu orten. Es funktioniert über Bluetooth und hat zunächst eine unmittelbare, maximale Reichweite von ungefähr 100 Metern im Freien.

Is Linux hard disk encryption hacked?

Ivan, an anarchist who has been in pre-trial detention in France for some time, reported in a letter that French police were able to gain access to the contents of his laptop.1 The laptop in question had an encrypted Ubuntu Linux installed. Another device with Windows installed and encrypted with Bitlocker could not be accessed. Ivan explained in his letter that he had used a 20-digit password consisting of letters, numbers and special characters for the system.

TL;DR

No, the Linux disk encryption has neither been cracked nor is it “insecure”. The performance of the technology as well as the algorithms have evolved, so the encryption settings should be checked and updated if necessary.

Since then, there have been discussions on the web and in our environment about how this was possible, whether an outdated crypto algorithm in Ivan’s Ubuntu installation was to blame, and what this means for the security of other Linux systems. We even received claims that the encryption of the Tails operating system – which is also a Linux system – was not secure due to outdated algorithms. The topic of device encryption is not easily accessible to many, so we’d like to frame the discussion a bit with this post.

Minimizing DNA Traces During Riotous Moments.

In our experience, most of us in North America aren’t in the habit of thinking very much about DNA traces. Information about how DNA traces are created or prevented is limited to several myths that are passed around. That said, you can be pretty certain that whenever arson is involved, a DNA forensics team will be involved too. For example, an arrest was made recently for a Jane’s Revenge arson after DNA was recovered at the crime scene. We want to briefly summarize some practical considerations. By arming ourselves with some preparation and an accurate understanding of how DNA is transferred, it is possible to drastically limit the amount of DNA we leave behind.

Although DNA is something we should always keep in mind when planning our participation in a riotous moment, we don’t want people to feel overwhelmed by this information. Actionable knowledge empowers us to avoid the dual traps of recklessness (acting as if DNA doesn’t exist) and immobilization (as if leaving traces and their analysis in a laboratory is inevitable).

CIVILIZATIONS HOSTAGE SITUATION collected writings 2023

CivilizationsHostageSituation-print

“For us it will always be preferable to act with possible doubts rather than let the latter feed a sense of impotence .Because out of our impotence our death will come, and what we want more than anything is to live. To  live by returning the blows we receive. To live without the human and technological mediation that
is imposing itself between us and the rest of the world. And when we become aware of being  conditioned, when we think of all the horror the world generates, our doubts matter little.”

“A knowing nod to those who are attacking the march of progress, to those who have fallen for it
and to those who are thinking of taking the plunge .”

“We know the winkul, we are not alien and we will never be alien to the wild an free life that  lives there. We identify with the insects, the earth, the plants, the animals, the birds. We set
out to fly like them and direct our sights to the target. We attack without hesitation, claiming  with dignity the destruction and sabotage against the power, its authorities and the gear of
domination that spreads thanks to the murderous civilizing progress.”

“Certain human cultures have been waging war against the Earth for millennia.I chose to fight on  the side of bears, mountain lions, skunks, bats saguaros, cliff roses and all things wild.”
Bill Rodgers(Avalon), ELF member

Thank you to everyone who fights for anarchy and against domestication, speciesm, domination,  capitalism, hierarchy, civilization, and their attempts to cage us.

Germany: Annual Chaotic – Anarchist Meeting from the 13th to the 16th of April 2023 in Bielefeld.

We want anarchy. We want freedom and autonomy for all without domination and borders. We want the subversion of the existing. We want social revolution.

So that our will and our ideas won‘t stay phrases without content, we have to confront ourselves with the surrounding reality—that is, with those conditions and this world in which we‘re forced to live here and now.

That‘s why we create a public space, to come together, meet each other and start to talk to one another.
We want to discuss. In bigger and smaller sessions, with new faces and known ones.

Where are we? How ought we struggle? Where to intervene, without compromise, organisations and without getting trapped in politics? And with whom? What does it mean to talk about revolt, insurrection and social revolution in a world striving for the abyss on the one hand and turning a digital prison on the other?

The meeting will take place from the 13th to the 16th of April 2023 in Bielefeld.

All anarchists, wild hearts, free spirits, subversives, and rebels recognizing themselves in this invitation are welcome.
There will be sleeping spaces and food. The number of sleeping spaces isn’t infinite. The earlier you let us know you are coming, the better. Additionally, there are parking spaces close by for those who bring their vans to sleep.

You will find a detailed program and more information in March on this blog: https://acat.noblogs.org/
Email: acat[ät]supernormal.net

So far, we have been considering the following topics:
• anarchist perspectives on war • recuperation of struggles by political parties, organisations, and other authoritarian sects • anarchist perspectives and interventions in social struggles (i.e. youth revolts) • social revolution in the face of dystopian conditions • anti-patriarchal struggles • dealing with repression, prison, and persecution • struggles against the digital enclosure of the world

In the meantime, there will be a lot of space to hang out an get to know each other. Bring your distros!
