 ollective Information Security in Large-Scale Urban Protests: the Case of 
 Hong Kong</a>\nby Rikke Bjerg Jensen (Royal Holloway University of London)
  as part of UK Security and Privacy Seminar Series\n\n\nAbstract\nThe Anti
 -Extradition Law Amendment Bill protests in Hong Kong present a rich conte
 xt for exploring information security practices among protesters due to th
 eir large-scale urban setting and highly digitalised nature. We conducted 
 in-depth\, semi-structured interviews with 11 participants of these protes
 ts. Research findings reveal how protesters favoured Telegram and relied o
 n its security for internal communication and organisation of on-the-groun
 d collective action\; were organised in small private groups and large pub
 lic groups to enable collective action\; adopted tactics and technologies 
 that enable pseudonymity\; and developed a variety of strategies to detect
  compromises and to achieve forms of forward secrecy and post-compromise s
 ecurity when group members were (presumed) arrested. We further show how g
 roup administrators had assumed the roles of leaders in these ‘leaderles
 s’ protests and were critical to collective protest efforts.\n
