They do suck at cyber security, and any effort to fix it is the individual effort of chapters. They'll put your info into a big excel that every chapter in the country can access. I know because I was accidentally added to a chapter from Delaware signal months after I joined a chapter in Missouri.

It definitely doesn't work like that now. The party has made a lot of improvements but there's still room to grow

Fucking hell.

seems to me that given this it's only a matter of time before ICE or some other federal agency has a full list of names and addresses of PSL members

can't think of a better reason not to join tbh. the fourth reich gestapo will show communists less mercy than their third reich counterparts did

Not sure why you think they don't have that already, or couldn't generate it with data already on hand

Cops can get this in a single geofence to wherever the meetings are held. But Palantir or Google probably already serve this info up on a silver platter for feds.
