Dangerous? Probably.

Bad? I mean, at some point, it becomes a risk assessment. Organizing at the risk of physical discovery might still be worth it, depending on your goals and what you're willing to sacrifice. The benefit of these networks is that you don't need tons of funds or construction ability to set them up. Whether you are an activist, a hobbyist, or a political dissident, you don't need a government or business to do it for you.

It's not really my place to determine what someone's best strategy is, as strategic factors are likely always changing.

There is always the option for gorilla node deployment. They need very little power, so solar etc is an option, and the hardware is relatively cheap.

A cheap drone could easily place nodes in hard to reach locations e.g. top of telephone poles. You now have an anonymous node that is trivial to connect to but harder to disable.

It's far from perfect, but a good option.

I also now have the image of a node built into a drone. Then it bolting, like a startled sparrow, when they try to remove it...
