Moscow Rules

Based on material from A Guidebook For Beginning Sweepers, this explanation of operational rules in hostile environments is dated and in need of a good editor, but nonetheless contains much goodness.

The wiki on the Moscow Rules is also useful.

Those who understand that we live in a national surveillance state will conduct themselves differently and more successfully than those who don't.

Pretty simple.

But not easy.

Be thoughtful, comrades.

    I've considered myself an enemy of the state ever since I ditched MANDATORY pep rallies in high school. (The jocks were jerks, biggest bullies in the whole school, and I hoped they'd always lose. They almost always did.) I'm used to being a citizen of our Nation of Suspects(TM).
    I have no one to communicate operational matters to, being a militia of one. I know I'm not alone in being alone, if you take my meaning.

    perhaps we can add:

    Admit nothing.
    Deny everything.
    Make counter-accusations.

    not sure where those came from but they could apply in some situations.

    Defender:

    I can relate.

    Please remember "three can keep a secret if two are dead."
    ....and no, it was not from the H.A.'s
    Ben Franklin said it first.

    WTF is KPN3% ? And, I use my rule of, If you find em, mind em. When I know I'm being watched, I find a way to "get" to them. Ahem.
