You can not defeat a beast by using as a weapon the same energy that sustains it.

People power exercised the old fashioned way is just an invitation to tyranny and beatings.

Why bring 1 million people into the heart of a city, directing all of that energy into a funnel of condensed space so that it can be pounded with a different, stronger energy?

Instead, divide that 1 million into 10,000 groups of 100, disperse them through the ten thousand intersections of a major city, and bring it completely to a standstill. 10,000 surge mobs of 100.

Everything about the internet is about connectivity over distances, about coordination at a remove, so why protest the old 16th century way?

Massive crowds are great photo ops, but that is exactly what Power is expecting.

Assemble, disassemble, dissipate, evaporate, form again when necessary. We hear of the Fog of War and what it causes. The Fog is always present, and, in a sense, always wins.

Forget crowds; embrace the Fog.

Actually, I was. Just a tyke. Are you suggesting that a) massive protests are going to be allowed? b)protests of this sort aren't ripe for all manner of crowd dispersal efforts using the latest gee whiz gizmos? These tools are called 'area denial' tools because they can be used to keep big crowds away. They get much more bang for the buck that way. How are they going to use these high-tech, high $$$ weapons on hundreds of different small groups of roaming protestors?
