Hold Your Own

Free, plain-language tools for keeping your footing as power shapes modern life — the scams aimed at you, the AI you use and delegate to, the algorithms and institutions that decide about you, and the authority you hold over others.

Power today is bigger, faster, and harder to see than it used to be — a scam that clones a voice, an AI sold as magic, an algorithm quietly deciding what you see or what you pay, or the everyday authority you suddenly hold over someone else. You don't need to be an expert to hold your own against any of it. You need a few clear ideas and a few concrete moves, before you're under pressure. That's all this is: free, private, and built to work offline. Start with the situation you're in.

🖨️ Printable one-page guide — the core essentials, free to photocopy for people without smartphones.

How to use it

  • Pick the situation, not the whole thing. Each kit stands on its own — open the one that fits what you're facing right now.
  • Do it with the people who need it. Set up the scam defenses with a parent; read the algorithm guides with a teenager. Ten minutes together is the point.
  • Share it freely. Send the link, print a page, put it on a library or senior center's site. It's public domain and built to be copied.

Everything here is free and public domain (CC0). It runs entirely in your browser — no accounts, no tracking, nothing uploaded, no internet required once loaded. Copy it, translate it, re-host it, hand it to anyone. Help against power spreads best when no one has to ask permission.
