Whenever their protest shows signs of being effective, they'll have communication channels closed to them. They can try to call the financial institution responsible, appeal to #Falsebook, one's #ISP… they won't restore anything.

Its the weekend!
Don't forget that banks are not open on the weekend. So if you don't have cash or bitcoin and need to pay someone, remember to have your chequebook.

Don't expose your #socialGraph to #cloudFlare'd websites. They *will* undermine you if you are effective, and they don't like your #politics.
Failing that, use a #chequebook.
