This excerpt from Michael Bazzell's "Extreme Privacy: What It Takes to Disappear" details comprehensive strategies for achieving online and offline anonymity. The book focuses on techniques to protect personal information, ranging from securing electronic devices (using operating systems like GrapheneOS and employing tools like Brew and ClamAV) to establishing anonymous communication methods (VOIP services, Twilio, and Signal) and managing online identities (using alias email addresses and ProtonMail). A major theme revolves around purchasing assets, such as homes and vehicles, anonymously, using trusts, LLCs, and alternative payment methods. Finally, it addresses damage control and privacy maintenance, including credit freezes, data removal techniques, and methods to handle online harassment and extortion. The overall purpose is to equip readers with practical, detailed methods to enhance their personal privacy and security in the digital age.
