Here is a good take for those that #protest and want to keep the people in your network safe from dragnets.
When you are not making good personal #security choices, you can implicate others.
Am especially on board with the mindset that it's not about provability in court. It's about keeping you and loved ones from incarceration and deportation.

Unfortunately we were only passing through the country, and didn't spend much time in Bosnia-Herzegovina either, but this region is so lush and wild and beautiful, I wish we could go again and explore more!

A German Thru-Hiker Has Been #Detained, #Deported, and #Banned From the US Without a Hearing

Ananias says she was separated from her American boyfriend, shouted at and mocked by US border officials, and detained overnight in a cold, shared holding cell without access to medication. After 22 hours of incarceration, the hammer fell: despite having broken no laws and holding the same valid B2 visa under which she previously hiked the #PCT and #CDT, she was deported back to Germany and handed a five-year ban on re-entering the United States.

Much like its neighbor, Jasper is home to pristine blue lakes and an unimaginable number of hiking trails, which has turned it into an iconic destination for all sorts of outdoor enthusiasts. It also happens to be the second largest Dark Sky Preserve in the entire world, granting otherworldly views of the night sky that you can't find in many other places.”
