It is recommended people switch to the report a traffic snarl function on maps to tell where the gestapo troops are ambushing people illegally.

@pluralistic at least for me, the "long form link" is failing (in Firefox) with "This page isn't redirecting properly" (2025-10-06 11:10 am). Same thing happens if I go to pluralistic.net and click on the link. Luckily, I can read it in pieces on Mastodon.
