You would have to not have an address, phone, or use the internet, nor travel along a roadway that has billboards (even the Amish are not immune!), so yeah, wherever you are they will track you down, basically.:-( Which is on them, while what we choose to do about it is on us:-).
Hrm… come to think of it, there are some people who would want to have a list of off-grid mountain men (hunters of potential immortal vampires? or perhaps to ensure that such people have their… ahem “votes” properly counted?), so even then there surely is a list, or rather a few thousand lists, of such people? Perhaps all people who have not bought anything for the last 5 years but for where an obituary has not yet recorded their deaths?
(Unfortunately) where there is a will, there is a way!
Bold thought: occasionally visit a website with privacy trackers off? Confuse the fuck out of them too with conflicting input. :-P Don’t just protect yourself, protect others by corrupting their databases:-D. Don’t just resist culture, counter it! Tbh I don’t really care enough to do any of this, but it is fun to think about:-). They can try to characterize me all they want, but meanwhile… uh actually I want & struggle to try to do that too, so I can say good luck with that task MFers! ;-)

Yeah you’d have to be an off-grid mountain man, basically. That’s why so few do it, but some do!

Ugh, you’re right. They may not be able to find you to sell you shit, but they can still piece together the you-shaped hole you left behind.
