You may have heard of the "Countering Violent Extremism" program under DHS.

They've deployed the tactics used to fight terrorists against domestic citizens. For example, incels. When I posted on the web forum incels dot is, I didn't know it was Department of Homeland Security operation against men who say they are romantically deprived. I didn't know I was interacting with larping feds who encourage extremist rhetoric. Consequently I was put on a watchlist and am subject to intrusive monitoring.

I share a lot of my experience here.

My question is, my computer is hacked by them and they are privy to my computer activity -- as in, right now, they're seeing me type this post. How can I get these rats out of my computer? I just run Windows 11.

Everything else aside, you do see what you're asking, right? This is basically "hey guys, I know I'm being actively tracked by security agencies (but I'm not a threat, trust me). How do I get rid of these trackers? Does anybody have any tips and tricks I can follow to get security agencies off my back?". Again, without getting into any of the context, what do you expect to get here? What kind of person would reply with "sure I gotchu, here's a list of tools I regularly use to keep cops distracted from whatever it is I do on the internet"?
