In October of 2018, celebrities and civilians gathered around Capitol Hill to protest Donald Trump's Supreme Court Nominee, Brett Kavanaugh. Recent sexual assault allegations for Kavanaugh led society to errupt in anger as he would become a supreme court justice. Therefore, organizers of the #CancelKavanaugh movement gathered around Capitol Hill to represent their dismay of the nominee. They wanted their voices to be heard, and they wanted this movement/protest to gain significant traction. Thus, they held a livestream of the protest, where viewers across the globe could watch the protest through their technolgoical devices. This impactful tactic helped spread the importance of the protest.

On Earth Day in 2017, over 600 “March for Science” events happened across the world. Building on the success of the Women’s March on Washington after President Trump’s inauguration, organizers of the March for Science created an event to promote the importance of including science in public policy, such as within public health and environmental decisions. In order to make the event as accessible as possible, organizers live streamed the event in Washington D.C. This allowed even those who could not make it to D.C. or a local march to participate in the movement, creating a digital footprint as well as the physical march.
