@jonah
just wanted to thank you for trying to help, but I gotta bail. All this is Greek to me - may as well be on Mars. Changeling;s Guide is inaccessible to me, apparently. s/he appears to have gone out of business. I couldn't even figure out how to post on Riot ;)
It was a bold move for me, but sans a road map, a civilian just goes in endless circles searching in vain for a way forward.
Namaste, mi amigo NjW

@Wetrix thanks - fact is, I want it all - please read my latest to Jonah - if you know anyone that fits the description, have them email me - namaste

I figure everyone on this site - besides myself - knows way more about privatizing their web presence than me.
My goal here is to find a virtual partner who will remotely use their skills to render me invisible to these SOBs.
I am not looking for a freebie. I plan to pay any reasonable fee, as long as the desired result occurs. NjW

@jonah do you folks have a classified section - members looking for gigs, etc.?
having trouble figuring out if banging around on SPT boards is going to get me where I want to go
The one thing I'm trying to avoid is being a PITA (pain-in-the-ass) to your serious-minded members

The other day, I got disoriented at an intersection I cross on a daily basis because of some new meds. Similar to the author of this post, two people made sure I got across the street and back on familiar ground, which was all I needed, so it went just fine. On a different occasion, […]

@BurungHantu I have none - that's why I'm here - to learn a bit, but mostly to locate a privacy savvy techie who wants to make a few bucks and convert me to anonymity

took a stroll over to Riot - you are right - much easier on the old brain - things stay where I left 'em - always a good thing
I like your spare url name too chao

@jonah changeling seems to be missing in action - the other one is stuck on "too may requests," along with obligatory revolving ring - will try later

Mais oui, certainment, Madame - does this mean we must part? I was kinda gettin' used to you ;)

think it's because she was in a forum - looked for the arrow - no-go - I'll throw changeling into your search - that page is gone

I'm guessing your starring my 'status' is a good thing ;)
quick question - why is favorite spelled the British way?

thanks for your help jonah - in the immortal words of the governator, I'll be bach ;)

don't feel too badly on my account - was sort of prepared for this - yours is a different world and one I'm not too fond of - but this site can help me to my goal of going dark on the Web - privacy matters to me and I just learned a short while ago of the despicable moves by the us gov't , Patent Office, Google and FB to steal our privacy in 2000 - kind of lit a fire under me to get this done

sorry, Luv - may need to try this again with a 10-year old at hand - there is a Home button, but it doesn't respond to my click - shows a hand, but that's it - the text is too tiny in your screenshot (?)

so you know, my goal here is to find a techie who is privacy savvy to set me up so I can access the web sans the whole world knowing what I'm doing - while I'm sure you're all lovely folks, this is just a means to an end for me
