			<description><![CDATA[I believe my question has been answered.Your cell [censored]one does give away your location. Correct? Is it legal to trace cell [censored]ones and is it done with special equipment or through the cell [censored]one provider?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[They did the exact same thing to me. When I visited my family last October, we had PIs stationed at my dad's house and PIs following my car as well as individual family members. Mat and I went to Lake Chilan in Eastern Washington to visit my aunt/uncle. They lost us. To try to get me to use my cell [censored]one, they left a "silent" message from my Florida office [censored]one number. That got me pissed, using my [censored]one to get a cop to check out my office. So, they found us and sent PIs all the way to Eastern Washington. I similarly received numerous text messages about calling because of my "bill". Finally got texting option taken off my [censored]one, knowing it was a scam. Irritating little bastards, aren't they?]]></description>

			<title>More than just pre-texting.</title>

			<description><![CDATA[1) Never volunteer information to anyone. Loose lips sink ships. Even if you tell your family member or friend, they may not be security savvy. Just be prepared and assume that what you have uttered somewhere, unless you really know how this game works, is going to be known by your enemy. 2) Observe all attempts by those "reaching toward" you especially if it's someone you don't know, or know little. For example, if you get called once, does the same number try to reach you again in an hour, a day, a week, in 30 seconds? Such data put together tells you the urgency of the originator. 3) Next is why? If there is urgency, why? 4) Never commit to having done or said or been somewhere to anyone you don't know and even to some of those people you do know. "No answers" are great. 5) Read and understand the two chapters on "The Art of Cover, Part I & II" from Chris Felix's book. Understand what a plausible cover story can do and why a good no answer is sometimes better than a lie. 6) Security is not letting unwanted particles on or off the ship right? (loosely para[censored]rased from the Admin Diction) That includes information from you via ANY source. Common sources: your mouth, your written word, a message you left, a facebook update that communicates where you are or what you are doing or who you are with, answering surveys, online, at the front door, in the mail. Tweeting, blogging, etc. 7) Buy and read JJ Luna's How to be Invisibile book and/or visit his blog. He's smart on security and being invisible. 8) If you need to make confidential calls, I suggest finding a few different pay [censored]ones around town that can receive calls. Label them [censored]one A, B, C (in your mind) etc. and set up what this means with who you want to talk with. Then let them know A-8PM or some such in a txt message or some other means. 9) Don't make them on your home-landline. And consider instead of using your regular cell [censored]one to get a pre-paid with a random number, then go to a location completely random to [censored]one or turn on some music to interfere with any audio listening devices or bugs. 10) Consider locking up your hard-drive when you leave the house, hidden is the best way and wrapped in foil. Put in a dummy drive. There is a chapter dedicated to where to hide things in JJ's book. Encrypt your drive. This is just 10 simple things and there is a vast amount of information available on countering PI's, nosy people, neighbors, whatever and staying ahead of the curve. It makes sense to hat yourself some in this area as the PI's and OSA-bots are apparently hatted in this area as well. No need to walk blind.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[If I understand this right,even if responding to a pretext,you would still have to voluntarily give your location to the person. Is that correct? Could you not simply respond with something along the line of "Sorry I'm on my way to visit my old friend Tom cruise"or"I'm on my way to an Interpol conference"? Or does this somehow automatically give them a location when you answer?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Steve, Thanks for informing the world of the continuing DM's desperate antics which consume tons of Parishioners (suckers) contributions. It sure seems to be just a lot of Dev-T to put up with!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[LOL. You would think that DM and "his people" who are reading these blogs would realize that they are dealing with some of the most intelligent and alert people on the planet. So, these tactics are not going to work. Well, no worries. Eventually they will be driven into apathy.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Steve ~~ It is as illegal as hell to hack into a website. Please let me know if this happens again. While Miscavige and his minions were jubilant on the sentence given to the Anonymous guy Dmitriy Guzner, it is beyond hypocritical that they hack in themselves. One more thing. You cannot be tracked by cell [censored]one when you remove the battery. If you want to be invisible for a few hours, just remove the battery. This is the best instant hat on how to know if your cell [censored]one is bugged and how you can tell. Please do click and listen ~ [censored]://www.youtube.com/watch? v=ujosfSkHFrQ For best security, I recommend pre-paid throw away [censored]ones. They can be purchased for cash with no ID and no ability of anyone to know inbound and outbound calls. Great Essay ! Thanks love War and Peace]]></description>
