1. Ask if you are on the List, so that They put you on the List
for mild surveillance.
2. Send a dictionary to a few friends by e-mail. Seeing
all the keywords, They bump you up to intense surveillance.
3. Use a program to sign your e-mails with random sentences that
resemble code phrases. They conclude that you are a ringleader
sending coded orders to the cells under your command.
4. Install a security camera in your clothes closet.
5. Put several large files of random bytes on your computer.
6. When They sneak-search your house for code books, They will
also surreptitiously copy your hard drive. They will waste weeks
of supercomputer time trying to decrypt the random files.
7. On your web site, publish photos of Their agents in your closet,
and complain that the police are not protecting your home.
