If you need, you can buy a burner phone and prepaid sim just for the protest.

But can you buy it without a credit card or debit card tied to your name? A lot of places around me have made it so you must have a traceable type of payment to be able to buy a pre-paid phone. They won't let you pay for it in cash.

Could you use a $100 prepaid card like a Visa/Vanilla Wallet card?

Not sure, I haven't tried that route. That seems like a simple workaround, however, so I suspect they probably don't allow it with pre-paid cards but I could be wrong.
