Preparing for house raids involves minimizing the presence of materials that would be harmful in the event of a house raid or covert house search.
All phones and computers should have Full Disk Encryption and be turned off overnight or when you are away for the encryption to be effective. Materials used in actions that can appear to have a "legitimate" purpose should be stored where they belong and not together (gloves with cleaning supplies, etc.). Action materials that do not have a "legitimate" purpose should be kept in a stash spot or safe house, or at worst should only pass through the house for a very limited amount of time. In most contexts, we do not think it makes sense to avoid keeping anarchist literature at home, but specific guides to sketchy things should be avoided.
