Bill Clinton visiting NGO Village Focus Phnom Penh

"PROTECT" - as developed by Thierry Darnaudet is nothing more than a now state sanctioned "GANGSTALKING".

Involving NGO's (Friends,Mlop Tapang), foreign Governments (USA,SPAIN,Netherlands,UK,Australia and many more), Tourists, Police, local people, neighbours,friends and the everpresent Motodop Taxidriver etc., with many similarities to the Nazi denounciation programs against jews and other minorities during WW II.

There are some websites like www.gangstalkingworld.com that offer a list of countermeasures. Most of these measures would work in the legal framework of the western world, but in Cambodia ??

Most people are not familiar with this subject and therefore cannot comprehend the consequences for an individual that has to indure this. see:Gangstalking by APLE and Volunteers

Before you enter the details of the Protect Program here is an overview of what can get you into jail in Cambodia. It's a must see: untac-law.jpg (before legal age was upped from 15 to 18 years) Yes, caressing a Child can get you in Jail, too !!

In 2008 some changes where made to this law, see:Cambodia's Law - Age of consent and the legal age was changed from 15 to 18 years.

The Start of "PROTECT"
==============
This Document was downloaded from APLE Support and fundraiser Organisation in the US, VFI (Village Focus International) PS: This is not a small no nonsense NGO. Even Bill Clinton paid them a visit in their Phnom Penh Branch office, while Dr.Beat Richner, the Swiss who runs 5 Children Hospitals free of charge purely on donations as a non US Citizen got the shrug, instead !

In reality the techniques used by APLE are being perceived as increasingly unethical, unsound and in any first world country would be deemed illegal on the grounds of an illegitimate invasion of privacy. "Protect" is all of that and more !

2.6 Specific statement of purpose
To support a partnership between VFI, Action Pour Les Enfants (APLE), M'Lop Tapang children's center, and Under the Tree, local authorities and local NGOs to track and investigate pedophile activity in Sihanoukville, Cambodia; to arrest, prosecute, and deter pedophiles; to protect vulnerable children and provide counseling and support to victims of pedophilia.

2.7 Project mission statement To reduce child sexual abuse in Sihanoukville province;

To denounce any violation of children’s rights by monitoring pedophile activity and behavior in order to increase the number of arrests and prosecutions of child sex abusers;

To ensure legal protection, counseling and support to victims of child abuse;

To improve the law enforcement and judicial systems by working closely with the Cambodian police and court officials;

To raise awareness of child sex abuse issues amongst the local official bodies, Cambodian society, and the international community.

2.8 Background

Ongoing field observations made by APLE, a child protection NGO in the capital city of Phnom Penh, have led to the conclusion that pedophile-related behaviors have decreased there, thanks to increased law enforcement and public campaigns launched by police and local NGOs to deter pedophile activity. Pedophiles have now begun to act in more remote areas of Cambodia where law enforcement remains weak. Sihanoukville is now one of the most common destinations for pedophiles in Cambodia. Sihanoukville is the biggest city on the south coast of the country and attracts different kinds of tourists, among them sex-oriented tourists and pedophiles. With its many beaches and vulnerable street children swimming naked, this town easily attracts pedophiles.
Worsening the lack of accountability in Sihanoukville is the fact that young victims in remote areas lack counseling, education, and support. Education is poor and children have little protected recreational space or structure. In a pilot project, APLE has determined that there is a great need to open a permanent office in Sihanoukville.

2.9 Project significance
In the past, Sihanoukville has seen few cases brought to justice with little or no action from the local judicial system, mainly due to endemic corruption. These factors indicate the urgent need to set up a long-term action plan in order to fight for the protection and dignity of Sihanoukville children. This requires a strong network between VFI, APLE, M'Lop Tapang (a drop-in center where many vulnerable and victimized street children take shelter), local authorities, and NGOs. This network and its activities form the PROTECT project.

2.10 Benefit to target communities Investigation and monitoring
It is expected that the activities of the PROTECT will result in: an increased number of denouncements of any violation of child right regarding child sexual abuse; an increased number of pedophiles arrested and prosecuted; increased public awareness regarding the dangers of pedophilia; increased monitoring of public areas where sex offenders are active; increased availability of information on the activities of foreign pedophiles in Sihanoukville. This will be accomplished by communicating with M'Lop Tapang children about suspicious adults in the area, and providing ongoing education to the community on pedophile activity.

Legal protection & Advocacy

APLE’s activities will result in better legal protection for the vulnerable children of Sihanoukville, including: increased rate of conviction of pedophiles; increased support for victims of pedophilia; a decreased number of vulnerable children; increased protection for victims of abuses; increased public awareness of irregularities in the judicial system. As PROTECT establishes itself in Sihanoukville and the public gains awareness of its activities, pedophile activity will be deterred, resulting in: reduction of the sexual abuse and exploitation of children; a decreased number of pedophiles active in Sihanoukville; increased public awareness of the weaknesses of law enforcement and its level of corruption; increased networking capacity between NGOs working in Cambodia’s provinces; an increased level of responsibility from local authorities; strengthened relations with local law enforcement bodies; the establishment of a system to inform the public about all arrests and convictions of pedophiles with the help of the media.

Protection & Rehabilitation
This project targets both pedophiles and their victims. M'Lop Tapang regularly provides shelter, education and recreational activities for 300 Sihanoukville street children and its staff knows all children personally. M'Lop Tapang educates children on the dangers of pedophilia and how to avoid it, but does not have a counselor on staff to help victims. PROTECT seeks to employ a full-time Cambodian social worker. (in 2011 there are over 50 fulltime "social worker" alias "snitches".)

ACTIVITIES In order to protect the children and achieve its objectives, APLE coordinated with all partner organizations to set up an action plan Sihanoukville. The activities are grouped into three main categories:

Investigation and monitoring

Led by a coordinator, a team of investigators gathers evidence and intelligence on potential suspects of sex abuses in Sihanoukville. This team’s activities include the following: Educate and raise awareness on pedophile issues in at-risk communities

Talk with vulnerable children and victims in to find information on potential suspects

Follow individuals exhibiting suspicious behavior

Gather evidence on the suspects

Denounce the suspects to the local police

Coordinate and collaborate with the police

Provide information about suspects to the relevant authorities in their home countries

Work and coordinate with local and international NGOs and institutions in Sihanoukville and outside, including M’Lop Tapang, Starfish Project, US Customs (ICE), LICADHO, etc. Legal protection & Advocacy

Once a case is referred to the police, APLE ensures the protection of the victims by:

Informing victims and their families of their legal rights

Providing a lawyer to represent the victims

Evaluating how to best take action, on a case-by-case basis

Monitoring the legality of legal procedures

Educate and raise awareness among local police

Identify the legal loopholes and needs of law enforcement agencies

Communicate with the appropriate law enforcement agencies

Identify the irregularities in the judicial system and denounce the failures of Cambodian law enforcement agencies to follow legal procedures, by filing complaints and informing the appropriate authorities in Cambodia and abroad

Participate in coordination meetings, workshops and seminars related to the issue

Inform civil society and media about all arrests and convictions of pedophilesCounseling & Rehabilitation

Hire one full-time Cambodian licensed social worker (55 spies in 2010)

Encourage children to disclose abuses they have suffered in a safe and nurturing setting (like World Vision, where they brought Srey Neang 2 Month after David Makhout was arrested)

Provide victims with medical examination and psychological counseling as needed

Refer victims to NGOs providing shelter, food and education (M’Lop Tapang, etc.)

Provide counseling to families of victims and information on preventing future abuses

CAPACITY 4.1 Organizational capacity

APLE has been working in Phnom Penh since 2003. 23 suspects have been arrested by the Cambodian police based on APLE investigations. Due in part to its activities, pedophilia has begun to decrease in Phnom Penh. In November 2005, APLE opened a new branch in Sihanoukville thanks to a grant received from
Microsoft. M'Lop Tapang is the only drop-in center in Sihanoukville and has become an important community institution since it opened in 2003. As a registered Cambodian NGO, M'Lop Tapang promotes formal education, youth empowerment, child protection and awareness of social problems such as drugs, violence, and abuse to over 300 children and their families.

VFI is an international non-governmental organization with extensive experience at the village and national levels in the Lao PDR and Cambodia. VFI has worked in Cambodia since 2000 and
co-founded M'Lop Tapang in 2003. It now provides fundraising and technical support from its U.S. and Phnom Penh offices. VFI, APLE, and M'Lop Tapang already have a long-standing professional relationship based on their common goal to protect children in Sihanoukville.

4.2 Project staff capacity

Zelda Hunter
Zelda Hunter was born in Zimbabwe and has lived most of her life in developing countries. She is author of a booklet on human trafficking focused on the exploitation of women and children and the lack of appropriate legislation in developing countries to combat this problem. She has extensive experience working on child protection with international NGOs and has worked as project officer for Sihanoukville's APLE office since 2005. ps: she later resigned together with Katherine Kaene because she could no longer tolerate the way Thierry Darnaudet wanted to have Reports issued, alledgedly because they where doctored to fit the Media's horror image of Cambodia and to raise ever more funds. (witness: owner of Sihanoukville's Oasis Hotel where Darnaudet,Kaene and Zelda stayed and had their meetings.)

VFI
Francesco Caruso and Lindsay McLean, the prior and current Cambodia directors, will provide technical, administrative, and evaluative support to PROTECT. Both have extensive experience managing and advising NGOs working on children's rights and protection and have worked in Sihanoukville with M’lop Tapang and APLE for over 3 years. Kun Roth, VFI Child Protection Coordinator, will assist on PROTECT as part of her ongoing duties managing the child arts center in Sihanoukville (BHOR) and VFI’s SMILE project.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION TOTAL: $67,000 for 2006-2007 FUNDS STILL NEEDED FOR 2006: $6,000

By 2011 APLE has established a sizeable operation with more than 55 undercover cambodian spies,assisted by some westerners, stalking, taking pictures and monitoring every westerner they find suspicious (everybody). On top of that he runs his Office in Phnom Penh at #19, st.318 with another 20 or so staff. His monthly budget is estimated to be more than 300.000++ $/Month, which is confirmed in the TV documentary of www.wat.tv. Documentaries & Movies on Cambodia
He lined up with another french ex-Backpacker, Sebastien Marot of "Friends" NGO in Phnom Penh which has hundreds of Motodop Taxi and Tuktuk Drivers in his Childsafe Program, and Mlop Tapang in Sihanoukville (160 Cambodian "social Workers spy on Westerners here).

The Sex Offender Business is a profitable one, indeed !

The Problem is, that most of the People stalked and monitored, photographed and pested have nothing to do with child abuse or pedophelia. They are a target because they are male and white, and since they don't expect any foul play or beeing set-up, are an easy catch for the exploitation that usually follows by the Cambodian Authorities.

Sometimes unsuspecting Tourists get tricked into consensual sex with an underaged (under 18) juvenile prostitute, which according to Cambodian Defense Lawyer Dun Vibol is an Entrapment Campaign by APLE.Scams Entrapments Corruption Extortion Check out the Movies Section Usefull and interesting Movies on the subject to see how APLE's Agent posing as a Moto Dup Taxi Driver is offering very young girls to an english speaking Tourist. On his Sept. 2011 Website APLE claims they never entrap Foreigners. What a lie. His own Reality TV Movies he distributed to all major TV Channels in Europe and around the World show clear evidence of the opposite.

Darnaudet's close Friend David Makhout which was arrestet in 2008 by APLE Agents claims that the little 8 year old girl he adopted was used 3 times as a bait at Sihanoukville's Caltex Station, resulting in as many arrests !The email Files
This is not the first time that such a claim was made !

"PROTECT" going Global:
While Andre's Torres of www.globalhumanitaria.org takes care of logistics, his friend Thierry Darnaudet of APLE acts as "technical advisor", cashing in on foreign operations.

Gangstalking by APLE and Volunteers

What are the goals of Gang Stalking?

The official goal is listed as a notification for the community, to alert them of individuals who have been flagged, or have had a warning marker placed on their file. It’s officially used as a means of investigating or monitoring individuals who have displayed inappropriate, or violent behaviours. The real goal in some cases however seems to be to isolate the target from all forms of support, so that the target can be set up in the future for arrest, institutionalization, or forced suicide. Other goals of this harassment is to destroy the targets reputation and credibility. Make the target look crazy or unstable.

Other goals involve sensitizing the target to everyday stimuli’s as a form of control, which is used to control targets when they get out of line. Once the target is sensitized, the Citizen Informants have an easier time identifying the Targeted Individual in public. The targets sensitivity is most likely added to their file as a warning marker and sign to watch for future reactions to.

The structure of this type of notification makes the targets vulnerable. Once a community goes into monitoring mode, they unofficially work towards driving the target from the community. This can be done by making the target destitute. Secondary goals include making the target homeless, jobless, giving them a breakdown, and the primary goals seems to be to drive the target to forced suicide. This is the same thing that was done to targets of the Stasi and Cointelpro investigations. It’s a useful way of eliminating perceived enemies of the state.

What are other Names for Gang Stalking?

There are many names for this form of systemic control and harassment. Under the Gang Stalking label you will also find such terms as Community Mobbing, Community Stalking, Stalking by Proxy, Organized Stalking, Cause Stalking, Multi-Stalking, but it’s all part of the same community notification harassment protocol. What many people do not realize is that Gang Stalking is just one appendage of this systemic form of control. There are other forms of control used to repress, and keep individuals in line. Other forms or appendages include, but are not limited to: Mobbing, Cointelpro, The Buzzsaw, Covert War, Electronic Harassment, etc. These are the just some of the names being given to a very old game, that is once again being played by governments on their unsuspecting citizens.

How are targets chosen?

Officially targets can be flagged and investigated for suspected, or reported behaviours. Unofficially the Targets can be chosen because of many other reasons. They can be chosen for political views. They can be chosen for whistle-blowing. They can be chosen because they belong to a dissident movement. They can be chosen because they asserted their rights at work, or filed a complaint. They can be chosen because they made the wrong enemy. Were considered to be too outspoken, unwittingly investigated something that the state did not want investigated, signed a petition, wrote a letter. They were deemed as suspicious by a civilian spy/snitch and their names were handed over.

It’s becoming apparent that targets might be chosen for this systemic form of control, if they are not already in some way a part of this controlled system. Eg. Many Targeted Individuals seem to be unaware of this community notification, flagging and monitoring system. Some targets also seem to be unaware that large chunks of our society are now being used as Citizen Informants.

Who gets targeted?

Targeting can happen to anyone in society. In the past primary targets of programs such as Cointelpro have been minorities. Targeting however can happen to anyone. Individuals are often targeted for being outspoken, whistle blowers, dissidents, people who go up against wealthy corporations, woman’s groups, (single) women, minorities, extremists, conspiracy theorists, anti-war proponents, individuals identified or targeted as problems at these community meetings, and other innocent individuals. The majority of the targets are often not aware that they are being targeted in this way. When a target moves, changes jobs, the harassment still continues, because they are still flagged, and a notification is still going out to everyone they come in contact with. Every time the target moves, the same information, lies, and slander will be spread out into the new community and the systemic monitoring and harassment will continue. Traits of those targeted

http://gangstalkingworld.com/Forum/YaBB.pl?num=1205738832/0

Who takes part?

People from all walks of life are a part of this system, because once a target is flagged, their information is distributed to a wide range of people, organizations, and communities. People from all races, ages, genders. Every sector of society that you can think of is a part of this. Civilian Spies/Snitches include, but are not limited to: General laborers, the wealthy, bikers, drug dealers, drug users, street people, punks, hip hop culture, KKK, black activists, church groups, youth groups, Fire Fighters, police officers, lawyers, health care workers, store keepers, maids, janitors, cable installers, phone repair persons, mail carriers, locksmiths, electricians, etc. There really is no minimum or maximum age range. An article came out recently in the UK, saying they were recruiting children as young as eight years old to be Covert Human Intelligence Sources.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/2689996/Children-aged-eight-enlisted-as-c%20ouncil-snoopers.html

Public individuals that the Targeted Individual comes in contact with are given this warning. These community notifications started with good intentions. Workers and the community at large do have a right to be notified if they are going to encounter persons who have violent, inappropriate histories. Citizens want to be able to protect themselves and their communities, however what is happening is that this program is also being used to falsely target innocent people.

Many do not understand or care that the end consequence of this flagging, this harassment protocol is to destroy a person. Many people in today’s society are scared, they are willing to give up personal freedoms, for a false sense of security, and if that means taking away the rights of another individual to accomplish this, they have no problem doing this.

Why people participate in Gang Stalking?

There are many reasons that someone takes part in this.

1. Some do it for the sense of power that it gives them. They feel in control. Many wholeheartedly believe that this let’s them know who is bad and who they need to protect themselves and their communities from.

2. Others do this as a way to make friends and keep friends. It’s something social and fun for them to do. They love that special feeling of monitoring and protecting their community. Many in society use the one handed sign language to communicate and it’s very effective in breaking down race, gender, age, social barriers. Many believe that it also let’s them know who is on their side, vs who could be the potential target.

3. Others are forced or blackmailed by the State or the police into taking part. I have seen a few people pressured into taking part.

4. They are told that they are part of homeland or national security. They are told that they are being used to help keep and eye on dangerous or emotionally disturbed individuals. They see themselves as heroic spies for the state.

5. Others are just local thugs or Informants who are already being used for other activities, and their energies are just diverted over into these community health and safety programs. Eg. Some may be given the choice of monitoring a Targeted Individual for the community or the police vs going to jail.

6. Others are told outright lies and slander about the target to get them to go along with ruining the targets life. Eg. Many caring families are told that the individuals has displayed mental health issues, or other socially unacceptable behaviours and might be a danger to themselves or the community at large, and that the notification is necessary for keeping the community safe. They are asked not to disclose this.

7. Many are however just average citizens who in the course of going about their day to day jobs, are being used to keep an eye out, and if a flagged target does come into their vicinity, they are asked to watch, monitor and observe the target. It’s the way the society is.

What are some techniques used against targets?

A few of the most common techniques are listed below.

a) Classical conditioning.

Getting a Targeted Individual sensitized to an everyday stimuli. The targeted individual over a period of months, or even years is negatively sensitized to an everyday stimuli, which is then used to harass them. It’s used out in public to let them know they are constantly being harassed and monitored. Some examples of everyday stimulus that might be used include: sounds, colors, patterns, actions. Eg. Red, white, yellow, strips, pens clicking, key jangling, loud coughing, loud whistling, loud smacking of clapping of hands together, cell phones, laptops, etc.

b) 24/7 Surveillance This will involve flagging and following the target everywhere they go. Learning about the target. Where they shop, work, play, who their friends and family are. Getting close to the target, moving into the community or apartment where they live, across the street. Monitoring the targets phone, house, and computer activity. Surveillance Policy.

http://www.newport.gov.uk/stellent/groups/public/documents/policies_and_procedures/n_039963.pdf

c) Isolation of said target.

This is done via reports. The flagging is meant to warn the community, but they act as little more than slander campaigns. They present a one sided assessment of the targets behavior and activity. The target is never allowed to tell their side of the story or to clear their name. This one sided assessment can include false reports, lies, and legitimate incidents where the target was set up. Eg. People in the targets community are told that the target is crazy, dangerous, a thief, into drugs, a prostitute, pedophile, in trouble for something, needs to be watched. This very flagging in and of itself is capable of creating paranoia, and false interpretation of everyday incidents.

Files will even be produced on the target.

It’s been shown that community notifications of any kind can and do create a sense of paranoia within a community.

Community Notification

http://www.johnhoward.ab.ca/pub/pdf/C20.pdf

Some people might argue that they would feel more secure if they were aware of the identities of dangerous offenders in their neighborhoods, but widespread community notification actually serves to heighten fear of victimization. In a large metropolitan area, hundreds of thousands of people are notified of a dangerous offender’s release, while only hundreds will come into contact with him in the community. This blanket notification propagates the belief that there are more “predators” in the community than ever before, and fearful attitudes among members of the public are reinforced. A vicious cycle results: widespread notification leads to an increase in the community’s fear of crime which, in turn, leads to more calls for notification. We would also argue that the use of inflammatory language such as “predator” by politicians and officials also works to heighten fear and increase calls for more punitive action.

d) Noise and mimicking campaigns.

Disrupting the targets life, sleep with loud power tools, construction, stereos, doors slamming, etc. Talking in public about private things in the targets life. Mimicking actions of the target. Basically letting the target know that they are in the targets life. Daily interferences, nothing that would be too overt to the untrained eye, but psychologically degrading and damaging to the target over time.

e) Everyday life breaks and street theatre.

Flat tires, sleep deprivation, drugging food, putting dirt on targets property. Mass strangers doing things in public to annoy targets. These strangers might get text messaged to be at a specific time and place, and perform a specific action.

f) Electronic Harassment.

Electronic means can be used to create the illusion that the target is having a mental breakdown, when in fact they are being targeted and harassed by a community that is trying to get them to move, because they believe that the person is a danger, or an undesirable. This flagging system allows the community to treat the target as less than, someone they are allowed to harass, and victimize. It gives them a license to do unspeakable things to innocent targets, and their families.

Hightech Harassment

http://www.amazon.com/High-Tech-Harassment-Scott-French/dp/0873646169

This is not just another revenge book. This is the ultimate revenge book-high tech recipes for madness concocted by the author in collaboration with the experts. Scott French interviewed engineers, bank tellers, phone operators, computer technicians, radio and TV managers, and asked them point black, “How would you get even with somebody?” What he came up with is a collection of electronics, chemicals, and common sense designed to push anybody over the edge. Discover how to induce insanity with lasers, shockers, breakers, and blowers; clear beaches with “silent sound”; zap computer disks from a distance, bypas computer passwords, blast boomboxes and bother banks. In short learn to harass the forces of science and technology and excercise your God-given right to get even with anybody, anytime.

These actions might seem harmless to these Citizen Informants, but in reality the actions could be causing great psychological trauma for the target. Eg. Blocking targets path, getting ahead of them in line, cutting or boxing them in on the road, saying or doing things to elicit a response from targets. Etc. It’s like the death of a thousand paper cuts. One or two minor incidents will not cause any harm to the target, but over time the target is slowly worn down.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/4612951/Man-jailed-for-whistling-Addams-Family-theme-tune-at-neighbours.html

Where does the support or funding for this come from?

Though the systemic harassment that Targeted Individuals refer to as Gang Stalking is immoral and unethical in nature, programs such as this in democratic countries, and none democratic countries have always been funded by the Government. They are the only ones with enough money, coordination, and power to keep such a system in place. These Co-ordinated efforts then join hands with others for this systemic form of control and harassment.

Ruling the community

http://www.albionmonitor.com/9711b/policing.html

“Ruling the community with an iron fist. “Savvy law enforcement types realized that under the community policing rubric, cops, community groups, local companies, private foundations, citizen informants and federal agencies could form alliances without causing public outcry.” Covert Action Quarterly, summer 1997.”

ACLU Blog

http://www.gangstalkingworld.com/blog.aclu.org/2009/04/30/mass-con-fusion/#more-5320

“You mean to tell me that it is legal for corporations from the private sector to team up with local law enforcement officials in efforts to spy on innocent members of our society? You also mean to tell me that the synthesis of law enforcement authority and the drive of for-profit companies operate under little to no guidelines or restrictions and it is unclear to whom they are responsible to?”

What can you do to help?

1. If you know someone who is being targeted in this way please don’t go along with it. Don’t assume that the person is guilty or a bad person. Many innocent people are currently being targeted, and people are being told lies. This form of harassment is systemic and it’s about state control and conformity. The express goal of this harassment is to destroy the individual over time.

2. If you are aware of someone being harassed in this way, subtly direct them to websites that deal with Gang Stalking, or sites for Targeted Individuals. Knowledge is power.

3. You can subtly suggest that your local newspapers or community papers print articles about Targeted Individuals or even an write an objective piece about Gang Stalking.

4. If you are a law maker, you can petition for changing the laws. Ensure targets who are flagged in this way have proper notification letting them know that they are flagged. Convicted criminals have this right, why not targets? Many of whom are innocent members of the public.
Petition for better oversight of these programs. As it stands Communities are getting away with serious human rights abuses, and complaints are not being heard. Authority figures such as the police in many cases are not taking the reports seriously due to the type of warning markers attached to a targets file.

5. If you are a lawyer our community needs lawyers who are skilled in helping targets access Freedom Of Information files. Lawyers who can help targets get their files reviewed, or corrected. Lawyers who can work with the existing privacy laws to limit who and where the targets information is disseminated to. We need human rights lawyers who can address the complaints of abuses that are happening to people listed or flagged in this manner. Illegal surveillance, illegal access of mail and electronic communications, and torture via electronic monitoring.

6. Mental health professionals can recognize that there is illegal harassment happening to individuals who are flagged, listed or have warning markers placed against their names. Community notifications can and do create paranoia within communities. This notification makes targets prime for harassment, and community mobbing.
They can objectively investigate the complaints, and become familiar with the Electronic means of monitoring and harassment that are being used. Laws are just starting to catch up to the technology. Eg. Europe is considering a ban on the mosquito device, because it infringes on the human rights of children.

7. You can subtly offer your support to someone who is being unfairly treated, in very small little ways.

8. You can bring up the subject of Gang Stalking or Targeted Individuals.

How do participants communicate?

Communication happens in a number of ways. When on the street or in cars patrolling, they use a one handed sign language. Citizen Informants also seem to get ques via cellphone and some via earphones.

Their one handed sign language include things like tapping the side of the nose, corner of the eye, brushing back the hair 3 times, the infamous double blink, etc.
