The Dissident's Survival Guide provides the most direct connection produced by the AntiRepression Committee of the Occupy Wall Street Activist Legal Working Group while Riseup's manual records the development of digital security practices as organizing increasingly depended on email search engines and networked communication. The reprinting of Malatesta Chomsky Landstreicher and Ber Mark beside manuals on informants police questioning and electronic surveillance shows the range of texts circulating as movement education.

A compact record of anarchist print distribution linking political theory and histories of resistance with policing infiltration surveillance and digital communication. unknown
