 - While starting an LLC is generally not particularly difficult, we had some requirements that made this process kinda painful. The biggest difficultly was doing this in a way that doesn't open us up to easy doxxing. In most US states, owners of LLCs and other legal entities are placed on a public registry which showcases their full legal names. Luckily, there are four states which allow you to set up an "anonymous LLC", concealing personal information from the public. We went with Delaware (we do not live in Delaware), and that led us down a rabbit hole of registered agents, virtual mailing addresses, and many other random legal mechanisms needed to do business in a state you have no business in. The IRS still knows who we are, but at least we're a bit safer from prying eyes. Sometime in the future, we'll publish the full process we used once we've worked out more of the legal kinks, as I'd imagine that info will be useful for other organizations that are at risk of fascist targeting.

 - MIR is an initiative we've helped to get off the ground over the last year-ish. MIR was born out of a project we took on with some comrades here in Atlanta to build an anonymous and open-source jail support phone system built from existing FOSS PBX components. This is a project that has largely been successful and has been deployed for Atlanta Solidarity Fund as a trial system while we work out various kinks and issues. This is a project that we'll release a full article on in the future (probably when we release a packaged version of this system). With this project in the works we were able to get a grant and formalize the group, now Movement Infrastructure Research, and absorb the jail support PBX project.
 
 - MIR exists as a container to conduct research and development work on radical open source projects and infrastructure for use by activists and social movements. Today, MycoSystems is now a formalized contractor of MIR, we are continuing to work on the jail support PBX project, and we have also started working with [Autonomic](https://autonomic.zone/) to contribute to Coop Cloud, a radical open-source infrastructure deployment application. Without getting too into the technical weeds, I think Coop Cloud has the potential to radically change how social movements engage with private cloud technologies and evade the modern surveillance state.

 - Sandbox is a new anarchist hackerspace we've opened up with some comrades in Little 5 Points, Atlanta. It's taken about a year to negotiate a lease due to various issues, but we're finally open as of January! Sandbox was created to bring technology skills and resources to the local community and to social movements. We've been sourcing equipment through donations and dumpster diving, and we already have 3D printers, a server rack with multiple servers, CNC routers, an electronics prototyping station, video synthesizer equipment, and much more!
