How can we fight back during an alien invasion? (part 1)

Information is key. We are more connected to information sources today than ever before, so our smartphones, tablets, and laptops are great mobile methods of sharing crucial information, assuming the aliens haven't yet figured out how to shut down the internet. Of course, if our government decides to do that during whatever they deem a “crisis,” we could be sitting ducks without any information about enemy movements and capabilities. If we intend to rise up against interstellar, alien oppressors, we need to be able to communicate and coordinate. Otherwise, we could end up as ground-up, terra-forming fertilizer for alien plant life (War of the Worlds, 2005 version)
