Book Release: Extreme Privacy

My latest book,  Extreme Privacy: What It Takes To Disappear In America is now available. Here is the brief description from the cover:

For the past five years, Michael Bazzell has been helping celebrities, billionaires, and everyday citizens disappear completely from public view. He is now known in Hollywood as the guy that “fixes” things. His previous books about privacy were mostly REACTIVE and he focused on ways to hide information, clean up an online presence, and sanitize public records to avoid unwanted exposure. This 370-page textbook is PROACTIVE. It is about starting over. It is the complete guide that he would give to any new client in an extreme situation. It leaves nothing out and provides explicit details of every step he takes to make someone completely disappear, including document templates and a chronological order of events. The information shared in this book is based on real experiences with his actual clients, and is unlike any content ever released in his other books. The stories are all true, with the exception of changed names, locations, and minor details in order to protect the privacy of those described.

More information and purchase options can be found at https://inteltechniques.com/book7.html.

Thank you all for the interest. This book is a bit "extreme" compared to my previous titles, but it has definitely been the most interesting for me to write. There is a full rundown of each chapter in the link above.
