Ghost Protocol v4.0 — See What They Know. Shrink It in a Weekend.

Data brokers sell your home address. Specialty companies keep files on your insurance claims, bank accounts and store returns. Some stores test different prices on different shoppers. Ghost Protocol shows you what's out there, then walks you through shrinking it in one weekend, with letters that cite your state's law.

What you get

• The Ghost Protocol app. One file that opens in any browser and runs offline. Nothing you type leaves your device. It holds your exposure score (and tracks it going down), the weekend plan, the letter writer and your broker tracker.
• 7 letters that write themselves: delete my data; do you use my data to set my prices?; send me my secret file (FCRA); carmaker: stop sharing my driving data; police: who searched my license plate?; police drones: policy and flight logs; and an email to your city council. Your details and your state's privacy law are filled in. Copy, email or print.
• Volume 1: Disappear in a Weekend (new, 17 pages). 12 secret files you can request for free, credit and specialty freezes, 24 data-broker opt-outs, the Saturday + Sunday plan, and your rights in all 19 states with privacy laws.
• Volume 2: The Field Guide (17 pages). Plate cameras, facial recognition, cell-site simulators, sourced misuse cases and know-your-rights guidance.
• Volume 3: The Toolkit (16 pages). Records-request letters for 12 states, iPhone and Android checklists, and the city council action kit.
• 13 letters and scripts as plain text, a broker tracker spreadsheet with 90-day re-check reminders, a printable wallet card and a 30-day plan.

New in v4

• The price is different for you. What the FTC found about "surveillance pricing" tools, what's been caught, the new state laws, signs a price may be personalized, and the letter that asks a store point-blank.
• The point system already exists. The private scores that decide whether a store takes your return, a bank opens your account or a landlord rents to you, and how to see yours.
• Drones overhead. Police and delivery drone programs, what they can see, what the law says, and the local steps that have actually worked.
• 12 life-moment checklists: new phone, your car, home and smart TV, family and scams, leaving a bad relationship, moving, protest day, travel and the border, and more.

Who it's for

Everyone. You don't need to be technical or paranoid. If you've ever wondered why a stranger knows your address, why your insurance went up, or what that camera on the pole is logging, this is the practical answer. Every claim is sourced, and every step is legal.
