Could AI be used to create a bunch of useless chatter in the airways that they would have to sift through and waste their time? Maybe use AI for actual good.

So basically, one could go to ICE protest and troll with fake conversations about attack points and watch them scatter to control nonexistent issues.
Yes, but they would probably arrest you instead.
IMSI catchers. It's known at least for 10 years now, that they get used on protests in US.
if you've ever used a radar detector you know, people drive like they are always being watched. not often in my experience. doubt these dolts are real sophisticated. fear is their main weapon.
Ummm, no shit!?
yeah pretty much never trust a public wifi without vpn. bring your own router. cell data is pwned. technics aren't in their curriculums.
Would a burner phone be susceptible to this kind of attack?
Yes, but then you get rid of it immediately. Also, don't activate it or have it on at home or any other place that can be associated with you. Only do so after paying with cash and at the location where you're going to use it then dispose of it.
You will be recorded while paying for the phone. This won't bring you any anonymity.
You will have been recorded at the protest too. So the store recording gives away nothing new.
wear a mask, nondescript clothing, pay with cash, and don't bring your phone to the store
once again.
do not take your phone to a protest
And cover your damn face.
And if you must, leave it off, ideally in a faraday cage/bag.
: takes off face and puts it in faraday cage:
Even though most of the comments here point out the obvious that phones are a risk, this kind of journalism is still important for spreading awareness and documentation of illegal surveillance for the record
