De-arrests are a thing, they do and have worked against ICE kidnap attempts. But you need a critical mass of people to do it, if you go alone they'll just arrest you too or worse, shoot you.

To be clear I'm parodying the people who think there are corporate safe havens where they can vote with their dollars.

I think you're picking up subtext in my comment that isn't actually there. If you don't have more info that's OK, I can do my own research.

Wait til they hear that Tor was developed and is largely run by the US military.

This is a decontextualized post from 2015 that theorizes a DDoS attack on Proton at the time was coercion to "help" them by offering to proxy their traffic through Bynet in Israel for the purpose of tampering. Is there any other info out there to support this theory? It's intriguing and believable but also complete hearsay absent any other corroboration, context, further info, etc.

This article talks at length about the cause of this rise being increasing economic stress / government cuts and the affordable housing system not having been adjusted to meet the rising demand. Literally it points to a Housing First program under-powered relative to economic needs as the reason for the rise. I don't know if I necessarily agree with the person you're replying to but this article strongly supports their argument.

Is the goal here to provide everyone with access to a home or to force everyone into a home?

Capital controls the government. Unless white house policy actually changes, this is a load of hopium.

The irony is that developers building housing that meets Oregon's mandated affordability requirements are still turning a profit, it's either just not as much profit as they make in other endeavors they're occupied with or they're foregoing bids in protest. If the city was willing to run it's own public development firm inside the Housing Bureau rather than merely issue grants and incentives to independent developers, the public could actually flip our own new construction at a profit to landlords if we're really that allergic to publicly owned housing.
