Thanks for the great post! This topic is about what most people call the "gray man" strategy.

I've posted about it before, but one thing to do is get a UPS Store address. Then use that address for your driver's license.

I haven't done it yet, but you should also buy land or a house with a trust. Then the trust's name shows up everywhere in databases, not yours. It helps a lot to shield your identity.

GPS on phones is just one way people are tracked. Phones can also be tracked by cellular tower triangulation. You'd be surprised how valuable that data is. For example, they can tell you were in the same car with the guy who robbed the bank last week. Any data that matches up closely to others reveals relationships and proximity. It's very powerful, and the government uses it.

Use throw away phones you've bought far away from where you live as a solution.

PI's are expensive. Most of the database searches are accessible to regular people too. The stuff that is not like DMV records will still give your location away. They would still be able to find me by my UPS Store address. Still, it helps. I recommend people never have their home address on their license. This is especially true for women who are being carded on a regular basis.

Utility companies are the main culprits of selling private data. They will sell your details to third parties. That data is also available to government agents. You need to make sure no utility is ever in your name.

If you have no utilities in your name, don't have a driver's license, and use burner phones and cash, you can "disappear" from the grid. It wouldn't be easy to do though, and you wouldn't live a very comfortable life doing it.

If people are that concerned about their personal security, they are better off leaving the soon to be largest open prison in the world, the USA, now before it is too late.
