We as the tech community have the power to prevent something like this by developing open software and hardware, and an anonymous P2P encrypted communication platform (that doesn't require anything like a phone number for creating an account). Even if they were able to ban people running unauthorized phones/computers, if we reached the point that open devices were cheap/easy enough to self-assemble there'd be nothing they could do to stop it (short of doing deep packet inspection on every single connection to disconnect any encrypted connection, which even China doesn't do as it's extremely impractical).
