There are worse ideas than explicitly using old or obscure technologies for the purposes of gatekeeping.
I've been considering getting an amateur radio license for a similar reason, though anonymous, private, or obscene speech on that platform is illegal.
You're also supposed to keep it apolitical.
That said, might not be a bad idea to know what to do with a radio if everything goes to heck. Just advanced warning, it's kinda hard to find anyone to talk to unless you're part of some kind of group.
So all manner of talk is outlawed because "obscene" can ve defined however the controlling party wishes.
