In a worst case scenario: US Invasion. What device could the US government simply force to stop working in Canada that would cause the most chaos (e.g: brick all iPhones)? in c/MapleResistance@lemmy.ca

Picked up a new android (sat in someones drawer for a couple years), never been activated, no sim card - am installing things like Tor, Briar, Session, Element, Meshenger - in addition to Meshtastic - no Canadian solutions that I know of.

May be too late anyways, with the rumours about the upcoming EO that classifies fentanyl as a "weapon of mass destruction", allowing the use of military force to stop it within the "alleged" sources...

Internet, GPS, Electricity. Consider getting FRS, or go full-route and get your HAM license and a handheld. Consider LoRa-based Meshtastic devices (Lilygo T-Deck) - good for text communications, am unsure if they are dependent on GPS for their mesh capabilities though.
