Surveillance doesn’t need a camera when your own phone is screaming “here I am.” Once you recognize the pings, you’re no longer passive cargo in a tracking system. You’re the one deciding when and how you broadcast. untraceabledigitaldissident.com/the-silent-p...

Obvious cameras are deterrents. Hidden ones are weapons. A visible dome says “Don’t steal.” A covert lens doesn't say anything at all. untraceabledigitaldissident.com/cameras-in-d...

Pay attention. This week I’m going to show you a hidden world. This week I’ll teach you how to spot what was always there. Once you see it, you won’t unsee it.
Locking down your phone, being mindful of what you're wearing, and coming up with plans to communicate with others are all key steps to take before attending a protest. ssd.eff.org/module/atte...

Sustainable #privacy isn’t about winning every battle. It’s about building habits that last. #Habits that make you less predictable, less traceable, less exploitable without burning you out. untraceabledigitaldissident.com/the-week-you...

You’re not crazy for wanting privacy. You’re not a criminal. You’re someone who understands that what you do, say, and think should be yours. untraceabledigitaldissident.com/opsec-for-th...

You think you’re safe because you’re inside? You’re not. You’re just easier to watch. untraceabledigitaldissident.com/shut-the-dig...
When cities plant trees along the roads, why are they never fruit or food bearing? Scared the homeless will get something to eat?

The first 6 hours feel twitchy. Like your hands forgot what to do. You keep mindlessly reaching for your pocket. Then comes the noise in your head. All the open loops trying to pull you back. And then, nothing. untraceabledigitaldissident.com/information-...
The question isn’t whether privacy matters. It’s whether you’ll let someone else draw the line of what’s “acceptable.” You decide what's acceptable, not them. That’s what sovereignty looks like. Not invisible. Not off grid. Just untamed.

If your threat model is “I don’t care, I’ve got nothing to hide,” you’ve already lost. This exercise forces you to confront reality, then design the real defenses you need. We all have information and assets we need to protect. untraceabledigitaldissident.com/dont-know-wh...

They want you loud. Predictable. Constantly feeding the machine. We’re going to starve it instead. untraceabledigitaldissident.com/quiet-the-no...
The core message is consciously control your inputs. Keep what is feeding you and trim what doesn't. That includes my feed. Only you can make that choice for yourself. Actively choosing is freedom. Accepting the default is not.

I’ve got nothing to hide, is just "I’ve got nothing worth stealing" with worse self esteem.

You don’t get freedom of #assembly if every meeting pings your device. You don’t get #freedom of movement if your face unlocks the transit system. You don’t get #privacy if the city knows your pace, posture, and patterns. untraceabledigitaldissident.com/how-to-move-...

You didn’t lose your freedom. You sold it for convenience. Your phone is the leash. Your data is the collar and you wear it proudly. Stop pretending you’re free.

Tomorrow we move from mental privacy to physical. Your phone pings. Your face gets indexed. Your house tattles. Week 2 shows how you’re tracked in the real world and how to claw it back before the case against you is already built.
People assume their data is locked up tight unless there's a warrant. The truth is messier. A lot of the time, law enforcement doesn’t need to ask you for anything, they just ask Google instead. untraceabledigitaldissident.com/who-needs-a-...
