Hi,

Attached is document from a friend of mine. Please help spread it.

14 foreign medias (channels) are blocked Thailand. Some of my activist
friends have been arrested and may have to go to military court. Some
people who summoned haven't released home yet.

There are about 1,200 people in name list that military will arrest or
search their houses.

I'm now helping other activist by training them about security issues.

Could anyone here recommend us the platform or online application that
volunteer can update the missing people after they got arrested?  We have
situation like this in the south of Thailand when military arrested
someone, after awhile military told the family that those guys were
released but in fact those guys never return home.  We need the online
tools to update info for those missing people must be secure and able to be
collaborated.

Pray for us.
