PROPARANOID?What
does it mean?
1) paranoid ~ a medical term applied to someone who mistakenly fears being persecuted by others... followed, spied upon, stalked, threatened, etc. 2) opposite of paranoid ~ sorry, there is no medical term in the English language for someone properly reacting to ACTUAL persecution. Some say 'cautious' is the word, but ONLY the victim seems to use that word, usually in self defense against suggestions of being paranoid. Why? Our civilization, certainly as exemplified by professionals within law enforcement, the courts, and medical institutions, simply does not want to believe in conspiracy or bogeymen. If you ask for help, you are simply dismissed as being paranoid, even if you have proof to the contrary -- they don't want to hear it, and the victim is victimized a second time in a whole new way. 3)
proparanoid~ someone who
wishes to aid and support those accused of being paranoid, especially
when help has been denied elsewhere; a concatenation of 'professional
paranoid' -- see next. 4) Professional Paranoid ~ title of a how-to book on personal safety and privacy by H. Michael Sweeney ~ The Professional Paranoid: How to Fight Back When Investigated, Stalked, Harassed, or Targeted by Any Agency, Organization, or Individual. A Feral House Book. 5)

PRIVACY POLICY
1) VISITS ~ For security reasons, a log of all visitors to this Web site is maintained just t is with at all Web sites of any importance. It tracks all page visits and downloads. Normally, such records cannot be used to identify a specific visitor, but there can be exceptions, even where the visitor has taken steps to thwart identification. In point of fact, no fewer than fourteen federal 'terminals' located within high-security facilities have been identified despite an undoubtedly high confidence by the user in their stealthiness. This collected information can normally be accessed only by H. Michael Sweeney (hereinafter referred to as "the Author') and the ISP hosting professionals at Macconnections as part of their normal efforts to deter/detect/defeat hacking attempts and to calculate site traffic statistics.
CAUTION ~ Advanced government and hacker methods are known to be able to bypass normal PC-based ISP security and thus able to snoop such files. This is not considered possible at this site because it is a Mac-based ISP selected for that very reason - the same reason that even CIA uses Macintosh. However, anyone concerned over this possibility should also understand that the same sources that have that capability would also have the capability to simply monitor your every Web transaction directly. For information on a means for possible detection/deterrence to such abuse of your right to privacy, read about VISUAL ROUTE Software for PC users here: <http://home.earthlink.net/~leslemke/kgb1.htm>, or contact me for similar Macintosh software.
2) EMAIL~ The Author is the only person to access email under any general prefix @ proparanoid.com. The same general hacking/snooping concerns expressed in (1) above apply - especially with the advent of FBI's Carnivore snooping software. The Author urges you to NEVER send sensitive information to him via email, and make no attempt to do so by mail or other means without prior discussion on methodology and your specific need and reason. As a general rule , it should be unnecessary in the first place! For information on how to improve your email security, please read the Getting Help section of this page.
3) CONFIDENTIALITY~ All communications and information relayed to the Author by any means is held in the strictest of confidence. As an author and investigative writer, the Author will not and cannot be forced, even under the law, to reveal any information relayed in confidence. Not even a court order will result in betrayal of any such confidence. Even casual contact falls under the umbrella of 'research' for the purpose, so nothing about your situation or existence will be mentioned to any other person, group, or agency, except as possible generic reference to the nature of a given generic problem experienced by a generic person and any possible generic solution as recommended -- without any mention of you by name or by circumstance which might betray your identity. Where referral or forwarding of information to other parties may be appropriate, referrals will be only by permission of the other party, or by permission to pass your contact information along to the other party. Outbound email to multiple parties will NEVER include cc or other readable coaddressee information, deferring instead to blind cc methods, unless those persons are part of an agreed upon discussion group (such as Flight 800) which normally freely communicates with each other openly.
~ The Author reserves the right to privately or publicly reveal to select or entirety of the the public or to any person(s) or authority any information which might prevent or report a crime or a breach of National Security. The Author maintains back-channel and front-door contact with various law enforcement, FBI, Secret Service, NSA, CIA, and Military Intelligence for the purpose. The Author also reserves the right to reveal in any way deemed appropriate any information or source of information (or disinformation) which represents an attack on his person, reputation, credibility, or the credibility of any topic or material he might choose to offer in public, or which may similarly defend any person, group, or cause for whom the Author has elected to provide help or aid.
4) MARKETING INFORMATION ~ Marketing information directly or indirectly imparted by contact through The Professional Paranoid Web site is seldom used. If used at all, it will be used ONLY by the Author in promoting his books, services, or the books and services of Feral House (publisher of The Professional Paranoid) or other publishers or business partners of the Author. However, any such joint use will not be done in a way which allows these partners to have access to your name, contact information, or specifics about you except where prior permission is obtained. All such promotion will otherwise be generated and managed directly by the Author, only, who prefers to reserve application for core interesteds, only. As of this date only two such mailings have been elected in two years, so it is not exactly a nuisance issue to most recipients. See Your Rights , below.
5) STORAGE~ Files regarding email and other contact with The Professional Paranoid Web site and the Author are maintained on his computer for weeks or months at a time. These are frequently backed up to CD and placed in a safe deposit box for long term reference, and the original files are purged from the computer once their age would dictate them less useful. There is a special set of back up hard drives and CDs distributed around the world in a very secure manner which can be counted upon in case of severe harm to myself, my family, my computer, Web site etc. A mechanism for decoding and distributing files contained on these broadly to appropriate international parties and agencies is in place. This protects all concerned in the event of foul play.
6) YOUR RIGHTS
~ You at anytime may feel free to place restrictions on how information about
you is kept and/or used by the Author. Every attempt will be made to obey your
wishes and to follow the law with respect to such rights. Requests may be by
email or in writing (PO 1941, Clackamas, OR 97015). Written confirmation may
be required and requested in certain cases where the possibility exists for
fraudulent representation in an attempt to sabotage an existing relationship
or to prevent helps from being offered to a victim.
