Cell phones are the most important component in the surveillance state. I advocate for co-opting the entirety of it from top to bottom. It's not just the most logical but really the only solution.
That’s not a solution, it’s a slogan. You can’t “co-opt” a system you don’t own, don’t control, and can’t audit. You don’t run the cell towers, the OS, the app stores, the baseband firmware, the cloud infrastructure, the data brokers, the subpoenas, or the enforcement arm. The state and corporations do.
Saying “we’ll take it over later” is the same fantasy as “we’ll use it on them”. Power doesn’t reverse just because people want it to. Once surveillance is normalized, it only ever flows one way.
That’s the whole point people keep missing. Tools built for control don’t magically become tools of liberty because the intentions feel righteous in the moment.
Also, why have you ignored this?: (TWICE NOW)
But let's test how much you actually believe what you're trying to sell here. Let's pretend that everything in the video above was exactly the same....except ....substitute "Illegals" for "Christians" and "FBI" for "ICE", and set it a year ago, when Biden was in the White House. Would you have so readily been all for it? Defended it so thoroughly? Be honest. Actually answer this one question, if you do ANYTHING. Yes or No? Would you still have the same opinion of it as you've detailed above?
I will answer this question just as soon as you answer this one, that you've dodged FOUR TIMES now.

Seriously, why are you here if you just assume the endless pendulum will keep swinging back and forth and down on us?

I doubt you'll admit to being yet another nuthin ever happens type, despite all the evidence to the contrary.
