The path to lock down your life and take back control

You are here because something feels off. Everything you touch feeds a corporate bottomline. Everything you search gets profiled. Everything you carry records everything you do. You do not want your life being packaged and sold. You are tired of being a product. You want your agency back.

Everything on this site fits together into one system. This is how you enter it. Follow the steps in order or jump in wherever you need. Forward is the only rule.

Understand the System Watching You

You cannot defend against what you do not understand. You need to see the world the way the system sees you.

Threat Modeling and OPSEC

Start here. This guide shows you the mechanics behind how you get profiled, traced, and shaped. You learn what matters and how your life looks when viewed through logs, signals, and identifiers.

Resistance Mindset

Technical guides and fancy tools mean nothing without the right mindset. This is where you get your bearings. How you’re tracked. How you’re shaped. This guide gives you the mindset that keeps you grounded and in control.

If you only read and apply these two, you are already ahead of 99% of the people out there.

Lock Down Your Life

This is where you stop leaking. This is where you cut the obvious and stop making yourself easy to spy on. If you are ready for the full system, start with the master guide. If you are not, jump straight into any hub below. Each one gives you practical steps you can use right now to shrink your surface area and harden the systems that betray you the most.

Guide to Locking Down Your Digital Life

Your full system. From accounts to devices to cloud services, this guide shows you how to shut the door on surveillance and rebuild a life the system cannot casually read.

Digital Lockdown

The backbone of your privacy system. This hub covers the accounts, devices, and controls that matter the most. You build a real foundation here.

Digital Footprint

This shows you the footprints you forgot you left. Old accounts. Data brokers. Search logs. Residual identifiers. You wipe the stale trail that follows you everywhere.

Phone Privacy

Your phone tracks and records everything you do. Clean it up and make it run quiet. Metadata. Logs. Cloud trails. Residual identifiers. Own it instead of letting it own you.

Network Privacy

ISP profiling, DNS leaks, captive portals, hotel routers, browser footprints. This is where you learn to move through networks without handing over a copy of your life every time you connect.

ZeroSentinel

Your own privacy node. A Raspberry Pi or mini computer running your own WireGuard server, DNS resolver, and health checks so you never trust a VPN again. This hub shows you how to build your own infrastructure instead of renting someone else’s.

Crisis Mode

When something breaks and you need to act fast, this hub gives you the exact moves that keep you alive in the noise. Evac triggers. Burn chains. Device lockdowns. Clean exits. It’s the set of protocols you follow when the threat goes from theoretical to real and hesitation costs you.

Rebuild Clean

You killed the old. Most people get exposed again during the rebuild. Not because they are sloppy, but because they reuse something familiar. Learn how to rebuild clean.

Crisis Mode Protocols (dropping in December)

Burn events. Account rebuilds. Clean comms. Travel posture. Dealing with hacks. These are the steps that matter when things go sideways and you do not have time to guess.

Critical Guides for Real Scenarios

These show you how to move through the world and respond when SHTF.

Tools I Actually Use and Recommend

I don’t care about brands. I care about what works, what stays quiet, and what does not betray you. These do.

  • GrapheneOS
  • Proton and Tuta
  • NextDNS, AdGuard
  • SLNT gear
  • Local Services running on old hardware or Pi devices
  • Keepass and Bitwarden Password managers
  • VeraCrypt and Picocrypt encryption software

If you need the deeper breakdowns, the real playbooks sit in the Secure Channel.

FAQ

Is this for beginners
Yes. You do not need technical skills. You need willingness and consistency.

Do I need to change phones
Not yet. Some people do. You will know once you run the system honestly.

Will this get me in trouble
No. Everything here is legal. You are controlling your data, not hiding crimes.

How long does this take
As long as you want. Move at your pace. Every step pays off.

What if I feel overwhelmed
Start small. Start anywhere. Forward is enough.

Final note

This is the path. Not perfect. Just better. You do not need to disappear overnight or even at all. You just need to move with intention. Start anywhere. Then keep going. That is how people claw back control of their lives and stop letting systems make decisions for them. You get to decide about your information and your agency.
