Everybody needs to take steps to protect their privacy online. How you do this is up to you. It's like packing your own parachute.
Now we need a spot to organize and we already have that here on Voat. We should agree on a backup site in case Voat gets taken down.
From this point on I'm going to lay out the basic conceptual framework of a decentralized public intelligence agency.This is a really simplified breakdown. I'm not going into all the intricate details and explaining how every action should be performed. This isn't a manual, it's just a basic breakdown. I'll soon write a very detailed step by step codebook which will explain how to literally do everything down to the most minute detail.
Now how do we get boots on the ground?
Like I said before, we need to crowd source private investigators which essentially makes them "agents". This would give us the ability to be anywhere at anytime. There are private investigators all around the world that can be hired anonymously over the Internet at anytime. They're basically hired goons that will go where we tell them go and talk to who we tell them to talk to, and they'll even wear hidden cameras to document everything too. Another thing we'd have to do is hire agents to investigate each other so we'd be able to keep an eye on them. Have the watchers watch themselves too.
We need to start seeing submissions that read "Need 1200$ to investigate XYZ" with a link to a Go-Fund-Me page. You shouldn't get into the details too much because all the information will be publicly accessible and so you don't want to give the people you're investigating a heads up.
Now we obviously don't want to throw money at strangers and simply hope they don't rip us off right? , correct, so how do we ensure that we're giving money to trustworthy people? First of all they'd have to provide the name of the private investigator so that way we'd be able to contact him and confirm that he was indeed being procured to do a job for us. This way we could hire another private investigator to investigate him should we choose to.
People would naturally learn which people's Go-Fund-Me campaigns were yielding the better results and eventually everybody would know who the reputable people were and they'd donate to them.
Another problem would be people feeding us misinformation. That'd be the number one threat, which is why our " agents" would be best used a drones. Instead of letting them roam free autonomously doing their own thing it'd be best to have them follow a specific series of instructions such as " go park X and film everybody that walks into Y" or " go talk to X and ask him Y" , things like that. Use them as eyes and ears. Tell them what to do and have it all documented with a hidden camera. Use them as field agents to gather Intel and that's it. Our job is to collectively analyze the information, not theirs.
Another problem is that all the information obtained by the PIs would be publicly available and so the people investigating us would know what we'd know. Well at that point it would be too late and any changes in their behaviour will be indicative of guilt. We'll be putting the heat down and watching to see who squirms. Whoever squirms from the pressure becomes a focal point of the investigation. Obviously making information publicly available will impede our effectiveness as an intelligence agency, however that's one of the disadvantages to operating publicly like this.
Now the beauty about all this is that it's also a very powerful psychological weapon and just the thought of having a decentralized public intelligence agency with an army of agents up their ass will make them sweat.
There's a lot more to this and I'm prepared to write a step by step guide, basically a codebook explaining how to do everything, and I mean absolutely everything. You won't even need to know how to think for yourself if you don't want to. You don't have to follow the code either, but If we all did we'd all be working as one despite remaining decentralized and compartmentalized.
We don't want to give our organization any focal point for them to attack. We don't want to give it a head for them to cut off. We don't want any centralized leadership at all.
You can't destroy a structure if there isn't one to destroy.

Great idea, though it has already been done before. William Milton Cooper, who ran a radio show "Hour of the Time" from 1992 till the day he was murdered in 2001, had created two very successful civilian intelligence agencies that worked for him and his program (keep in mind, this was before the Internet really took off). One was called CAJI (The Citizens' Agency for Joint Intelligence), which provided general research and investigation on a wide variety of NWO-related topics, while the other one was called IS (Intelligence Service) and focused specifically on providing relevant intel to militia groups. In order to become a volunteer agent, one had to pay a fee (about $100 dollars - that alone will separate a lot of chaff), take a notarized oath to protect and defend the Constitution, and finally be willing to undergo a thorough background check. Once accepted into one of the agencies, a researcher would be assigned to an experienced local "station chief", who decided what the agents in his particular area of the country should concentrate their research on; he would also collect all incoming reports, analyze them, fact-check and then submit final reports to Bill Cooper who would then read the results of these thorough investigations on air to millions of listeners world-wide. That was his model, but there are many ways that we can improve it. Your suggestion of monetary incentives is a great one - it should be very easy to reward dedicated researchers with crowd funds in this day and age. Thanks for making the post.

I can't believe I don't know about any of that. That's fucking incredible. The problem with Bill Copper's model was Bill Copper though, and I mean that in the sense that he was the head of the organization. We need to structure it like a religion in the sense that we will be operating independently, yet as one. There's probably no perfect system, but what I can do is design a system and then try to break it. I'll deliberately try to exploit it and then reinforce the weak points I find. Hard to explain, but basically what I'll do is try to find holes in my own design and then patch up any weaknesses.
Trust me, I can create something lasting. It's just a matter of getting it going, because once it gets going the system will continue to propel itself.

Oh, I totally agree that it needs to be decentralized. They offed Cooper and his intelligence agencies died with him, which is unfortunate. That being said, we still need some structure and assignment of duties based on talents and skills, as well as a way of secure communication, so as not to reveal your plans to the enemies before a move is even made. The last problem is the hardest one to solve.

Unfortunately, we're it right now. And we're here. And it's prob compromised already. Just like the last place.
And the wild west frontier we need exists and is full of awful anons and pedos and run by questionable people.
The 92 model is great to know about. We need better. And sadly, even as a Trump fanboy, we need it good enough to sink him if he does wrong too.
Drifting towards and normalizing the deep dark corners of the internet is natural, but this election has shown that to be questionable and possibly insufficient.
