Exactly. I'm not being targeted by a state level actor, I don't have any warrants or anything, and I'm pretty boring overall.

There are two main strategies to staying hidden:

  • don't be seen
  • blend in

I do the first for the big threats (social media and other big tech), and the second for everything else. If the government wanted to find me, they could, my goal isn't to hide, but to give them no reason to look for me.
