Harassment

The following list is to be found on the webserver of the "Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights" (www.ohchr.org) and seems to be a collection of sting operations mixed with some anarchist cookbook methods that pertain to espionage. The document seems more like a draft, containing spelling mistakes and apparently not being connected to anything in particular, making it even uncertain why the document finds itself on the website of the OHCHR. However, we have had partial exposure and some experience in dealing with these matters, and of particular interest, we have developed counter-measures to some of the things being mentioned, such that the document will be cited here with pointers to some of the things documented or created.

  • Surveillance (being followed, electronic surveillance, computer and phone hacking, monitoring all online activities, and bugging 1) of home),
  • Profiles are built to identify any and all weaknesses and insecurities to be used later. Information often obtained through sexual partners or trusted people in their lives.
  • Conditioning where victims are sensitized to certain stimuli such as everywhere you go someone will cough as they walk past you. The goal is to make you self police and then think anyone who coughs is involved in the harassment. People report of conditioning to include hand gestures, an overt use of colour in peoples clothing (like everyone you see wearing red) or cars a certain colour or with headlights on (also known as brighting).
  • Anchoring where someone will provide false rationales for the harassment. Often many possible rationales are planted to keep the victim confused and the focus of the harassment cycles from one possible reason to another round and around so as to keep the victim guessing in a self perpetuating guessing game where every scenario you are to blame and causes self doubt, fear, intimidation, and ultimately a cycle of destructive thoughts.
  • Mobbing (or true gangstalking) where everywhere you go you will see an overt display of people following you and often use words you have been conditioned to or your name to draw your attention 2).
  • Street theatre where a group will "perform" an overt activity like a fake confrontation or scenarios designed to test your reactions. Often takes the form of a couple who position themselves near you and then have a conversation using many of your conditioned words or pertaining to your particular situation and sensitivities.
  • The use of directional speakers which have the ability to direct sound to a single individual in a crowded room. This particular item is ultimately the most used and is often referred to as V2K or Voice to Skull 3) and is used extensively in the psychological breakdown of the victim. The use initially is to cause the victim to doubt their sanity and drive them into the mental health system, and later to just torment and never give the victim a moment of privacy or peace. If they do enter the mental health system, then harassment escalates dramatically as the victim has now been "discredited" and can be labeled as someone with a mental problem if they do speak out about the harassment.
  • The use of electronics to effect your eyesight and balance which was originally developed for the military and police crowd control called "dazzling" and even the ability to make you vomit.
  • Sound campaigns which is a community harassment technique where abnormal levels of sound are directed at the victim and their home. This includes cars deliberately breaking or accelerating when they pass 4), people talking excessively loudly at all hours of the night, amplification of sound using directional speakers so that external sounds that previously couldn't be heard now can, garbage trucks and other heavy vehicles, and countless other deliberate tactics
  • Sleep deprivation - this is perhaps one of the most insidious tactics used where victims are woken multiple times a night and can be kept awake for days at a time. The effects are dramatic and completely debilitating effecting concentration, mood, irritability, appearance, and significantly impacts all areas of their life - job performance, relationships, and significantly aids in discrediting the victim as they appear unorganised, disheveled, and sleeping patterns alter so they may sleep during the day (where noise campaigns are more effective) and be awake at night (where they can be painted as the one making noise and being a disruptive member of the community).
  • Baiting or entrapment where victims are harassed to the point that they lash out and commit a crime such as assault, break and enter or vandalism, as they try and locate the source of the harassment. Harassers will actively try to provoke verbal and physical confrontations especially after a period of sleep deprivation. Or they are prompted into an activity which can then be used as leverage such as affairs, sexuality, drug use, or other criminal activity.
  • Gaslighting which is a form of psychological abuse where someone will actively try undermine victims and to make them doubt themselves so that they lose all self confidence and self esteem and are therefor easier to manipulate and push toward the mental health pathway. It can be as simple as being told something which they then deny, then telling them how silly they are for thinking they said it, and turn the lie around into an attack on the person. It can be incredibly effective coming from a trusted person and before the victim understands what is happening to them.
  • Blackbag jobs is a term when a harasser breaks into a victims property and places something or deliberately moves something. The purpose is to cause self doubt, and fear that their property is being accessed which harassers try to then sell as paranoia.
  • Propaganda and disinformation is also the other key element to suppress knowledge of this practice as its effectiveness initially requires the victim to be unaware of the existence of gangstalking, gaslighting 5), or the electronic technologies such as directional speakers so huge amounts of time are devoted online to creating disinformation sites which attempt to discredit victims by pushing the mental health agenda. They achieve this by posing as victims and actively trying to sound crazy so that all victims are are treated as such. Also by creating websites claiming to help victims and being a resource for victims to come together and then harassing them to the extent that they lose hope and no longer reach out for help causing further isolation.
  • Further to the above, gangstalkers rely on disbelief and discrediting and as such much of the harassment is designed (at least initially) to mimic mental health issues. They also rely on their abuse being so extreme, so pervasive, so fundamentally immoral, as to be disbelieved and victims subsequently resort to photographing, videotaping, and sound recording their everyday encounters to disprove the countless unfounded claims made against them - especially in relation to gaslighting, which gangstalkers try to turn around and paint the victims as paranoid or irrational. Victims are made to feel helpless as every attempt to defend themselves is used against them and when they seek help they are met with disbelief or open hostility.

Building an anti-Tempest Device

Tempest used to be a surveillance system back in the 80s where a laser would be shone onto the window of a house and the vibrations of the window measured by the return beam. By measuring the vibrations and with a clean line of sight, this method could be used to listen in on conversations at a distance. The same principle is used more-or less, give or take a laser beam, for long-range microphones that are capable of folding their vantage point in order to listen at long distances.

Countering a Tempest device or long range microphones is probably not an easy task, but one can for sure make the surveillance operation more difficult or annoying. One way to do that is to use a vibration speaker, a speaker that is advertised to turn any surface into a speaker through resonance, and to glue the speaker onto the window. Any voice taking place within the house will then invariably end up being mingled with the sounds played through the speaker, and if the laser is pointed at the window onto which the speaker is glued, then more than likely the vibrations will overcome any speech taking place within the house.

These speakers are easy to wire up, requiring only two leads, one for ground and the other for the signal, with the main features of the vibration speaker being the face plate opposed to a small aperture on the other side that will act together like a pump by pressing onto the surface that the speaker is placed upon.

For best results, some thin double-sided sticky tape can be used in order to temporarily attach the speaker to a window. The speaker should preferably be connected to an amplifier in order to counter any impedance mismatch between the device that will output the sound and the speaker. Ideally, all the windows should have one of these speakers.

Long-Range Microphone

Long-range microphones have appeared in movies since the 1960s and are now available over the counter to people with too much time on their hands going for about 50 bucks and are able to receive from about $100m$ in range.

We weren't sure whether to file this under "Chinese humor" or to place it in this section instead given that the microphone seems to be created for the purpose of listening to your chicken coop in your garden (or the chicks in your garden? assuming you have chicks in your garden, though). Little-Red Rooster, over! :)
