Someone who "locks down" to a machine, vehicle, door, pipe, window etc., usually for political reasons. A barnacle attaches itself and is difficult to remove. This term is especially used by groups of professional activists.
"Who are the barnacles for this operation?"
"Let's go with John and Jane. They're eager, and have no priors."
"Great, I'll start prepping the lock boxes."
