Privacy Lover

Hello, my name is Frank

I live in a country where the state is filming me when I go shopping, take my dog for a walk and greet my neighbours.

I live in a country where the state is tracking my location at all times through my mobile phone GPS positioning system.

I live in a country where all internet websites, emails and phone calls made are logged and kept for storage.

I live in a country where a DNA sample will be taken from me for storage if arrested on suspicion of something and then released without charge.

I live in a country where it is punished with a prison sentence not revealing the password to private encrypted files when requested by the authorities.

I live in a country where laws passed to fight terrorism are used against peaceful protesters.

I live in country where the Head of the State is unelected, this dictatorship is also known as Monarchy.

I am not from Iran, I am not from Iraq and I am not from China, I live in the United Kingdom, year 2009 AD, XXI century.

If this situation sounds familiar to you, then you are part of the Matrix, and it is time to fight back!

CCTV in toilets, now legal in the UK

I now wear a cap to avoid facial recognision CCTV software to follow me on the street, I only use virtual credit cards under fake name, my mobile phone is always switched off unless in use, I use a secure VPN for internet surfing and my front door is made of stainless steel to make it difficult for an early raid morning to bring it down.

I don’t know how long it will be before the British secret services realise I am a privacy activist, it is important to be ready for eventualities,a private life is not something you are encouraged to have in the UK.

Privacylover Updates to slow down (20th May 2010)

I am now deleting my contact email, I am not taking any more emails.

In the last two years I only had a single person emailing me regularly to say something worthwhile, thank you Nomad.

I had some stupid wanker using a remailer to send me death threats and other bullshit to my email address, and lately I also have had people asking my personal advice for this or that problem.

Sorry guys I have no time for privacy consultancy, you can ask at alt.privacy or any other wothwhile privacy group instead.

I feel it is better disabling comments that not replying to them, this way I do not have to deal with spam, which I was also getting.

I got the impression that some people had a problem with me making $10 year with the Adsense advertising displayed on this blog, you need not to worry anymore as Google Adsense and Adbrite both have suspended my account saying Privacylover content does not adjust to their terms and conditions.

I am now with Bidvertiser, I emailed them first and they kinda of said the blog was OK with their terms, with luck I will reach the $2 mark soon as Bidvertiser has peanuts advertising rates.

Right now I am going to invest all of my time in my real life business, which unlike this blog, actually fills my bank account.

I am really hard pressed on time and can not use it up with non productive activities, such as hobbies. I am running a home business for real,  and this means investing 100% of my time on it or go bust.

Thank you loyal readers, bear in mind that blog updates will be kept to a minimum, that is assuming I update at all.

I salute you privacy activists from around the World!
