> If anyone else knows of similar interventions, I would love to learn of them. It makes me think about how individuals can force multiply their impact, and whether there's methods for personal empowerment to be learned from these examples.

One that comes to mind is Keith Gill [1] of GameStop fame [2].

There was an article about that a month or two ago: The Death of Daydreaming - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43894305

The problem with this line of thinking is that the government is, of course, composed of... individual citizens.

> Firejail can't handle : in some paths (at all, no escaping provided) which made me dump it.

This doesn't match my experience. For example, the following works just fine in a profile file:

  blacklist /sys/devices/pci0000:00/*

Can you give an example of what you had problems with?

Perhaps (likely?) he himself should be counted too, so 7777 in total.

In bash, you can do something like this out-of-the-box by setting the `PS1` variable to your liking. For example, I use the following in `/etc/bash.bashrc`:

  PROMPT_COMMAND='_prev_status="$?"'
  PS1='\n$(printf "%0${COLUMNS}d\n" 0 | tr 0 -)\n[\D{%y%m%d-%H%M%S}] \u@\H (${_prev_status})\n${PWD}\n\$ '

The first line saves the status of the previous command and the second line sets the prompt string. The result is something like this:

  ---------------------------------------- <these dashes span the terminal width>
  [date-time] user@host (status)
  /current/working/directory
  $ <next command>
