Invisible Privacy | Online Privacy

JJ Luna's personal privacy blog. In 1959 he moved to Spain's Canary Islands to begin a then-illegal educational work that included secret meetings in remote mountain forests. Although pursued by General Franco's Secret Police, he maintained his privacy via a false identity and was never caught. When the Spanish dictator moderated Spain’s harsh laws in 1970, Luna was free to come in from the cold. However, he remains in the shadows to this day. He is currently an international privacy consultant.

How to Avoid Danger from a Stranger at the Door (Part II)

Be aware of the tricks some rapists and crooks use to get you to open your door.

1. You hear a noise from the water lines, and realize someone has opened the outdoor faucet. Do not go out to turn it off!

2. Loud knocking, followed by "There's been an accident--I need to use your phone!" Call 911.

3. You hear a baby crying, either at the front door or below your bedroom window. This is a recording, designed to get you to come outside. Don't do it! Call the police.

And by the way, if you do not already have a door jammer, pick one up at any major hardware store. Brace the front door whenever you are not using it.
