I understand the sentiment. What I was alluding to was a communications network with the capacity to sign up and activate tens of millions of Americans without them being targeted before the CD happened.
Put it this way, the American men and women who supported and fought in the American Revolution needed to have a clandestine means of communication for organizing. They were at risk not only of British soldiers but loyalist Americans as well.
In order to organize in numbers, the members must be cloaked. Then the battles must be chosen to achieve the maximum impact. I can’t suggest here what those battles could be, but you get the idea.
