Digital Mobilization Field Guide

A technical field guide to digital products, and services that support the operations of organizations aligned with the pro-labor, pro-human rights, pro-free speech and anti-imperialist agenda of Doikayt Mobilization Labs.

Target Audience

Profile

You are in the right place if you are a technologist working as IT staff or as a volunteer at a movement-aligned organizations, where you are tasked with:

  • identification,
  • evaluation,
  • configuration,
  • customization and
  • ongoing maintenance and support of software and hardware that supports your group’s mission.

Proficiency Assumptions

You should be at least at ‘power user’ level, comfortable with:

  • config files
  • command line directives
  • IT operations basics
    • Web, Internet, and cloud concepts
    • basic security

Unique Challenges

You likely need to deal with constraints that technologists in corporate, government and military settings don’t worry much about:

  • shoe-string budgets,
  • deplatforming risks, and
  • ethical considerations

See New Submissions for further discussion of how these criteria factor into our structured protocol for recommending new products and services.

Site Organization

Content is organized as a shallow hierarchy, moving from broad generalized domains of organizational concern to operational areas within a domain (and potentially, an intervening sub-area) – all the way down to the level of individual tools (one per page).

  • Domain →
    • Operational Area →
      • Operational Sub-area →
        • Task →
          • Candidate Tool

See Site Organization for more details.
