RE: EPIC! How to totally get completely off the surveillance grid, pretty much
Utility companies are selling your identity and details to third parties. The way around this is to buy a property using a trust. Then the trust gets the utilities, not you. When you have utilities and tax bills in your name, you gave up everything.
Paying cash for items definitely helps, but things like utilities and property taxes are put into databases that the government and, in some cases, PI's can search.
I see utilities as a real weakness though. It is one reason why I want to be completely off grid one day. That's also why a lot of places make it illegal to be completely off grid. Your driver's license will also be used against you, and they make finding a person very easy for law enforcement.
As I noted earlier, I do not have any utility bills. Were neighbors unavailable to do so in my stead, a trust or LLC might well prove the best solution. I have neither tax bills nor utility bills coming to me. I renewed my driver's license while living innawoods, and the address on it is a creek drainage. I do completely agree that simply providing one's own utilities is the ultimate best option. I have long used a solar panel for auxiliary power, and used to have a rain barrel that collected water from my gutters. That proved difficult, so I have arranged for a different solution for water.
