Yeah, it’s pretty dated, and some of it just doesn’t work. If there’s a newer version, it’s probably classified. Though, the stuff in the back about office work and everyday type stuff still applies.
Really, I think it should be used as a starting point to start thinking about resistance. For example, although not specifically mentioned, an IT tech can “accidentally” misconfigure a service to make it unavailable. Similarly, if you’re a straight white male, you can raise a pride flag or the flag of a Central American country. It’s not illegal, and it can force a small amount of resources to be diverted to investigating you rather than a minority.
There are a million ways to creatively resist that also don’t cause collateral damage. The goal is to sap their resources and morale.
Is there a modern version of this? I did a quick read through and, given our large surveillance network, some of these things aren’t practical.
Also, unless you specifically target alt-right targets, the likelihood of collateral damage is pretty high.

Did you mean to say if you are a straight white male?
Yep. Edited. Thanks for catching that!
Literally false flag operations. Nice one.
