I am currently under investigation by the City Police of Zurich. But I am not a criminal. And I have evidence, that my Internet is under surveillance by the Police. And they make me notice it. And I decided not to ask the Police for help regarding this topic yet.
VPN and TOR where recommended by the Privacy Guy Rob Braxman from the United States to hide your location:
But Mullvad VPN and the TOR network did not help me to hide my location. When I used Mullvad VPN and I have chosen Austria as my location, they have put cars from Australia near to my house.
And I live in Switzerland. And when I was using Whonix as my operating System which is based on TOR from which I thought it would be one of the most secure OS in the world:
I found cars from the Netherlands near my house.
I used Whonix and Mullvad VPN alternatively. But I have to investigate further if these cars from the Netherlands where really triggered by using the TOR network through Whonix. Or if these cars where triggered by my previous sessions where I was using Mullvad VPN and have chosen Brussels as my location in the Mullvad App. And also my neigbhour next to me knocks on the wall if I am using the Internet. When I was using Mullvad VPN, or Whonix, this did not stop this neigbour from doing this. To use the Whonix OS which is based on TOR did not help me to hide my location. People make me notice that I am unter internet surveillance with messages such as: “your request is being verified”, by timers which make my internet traffic slow, with CAPTCHA s and all kind of stuff, which are for me personally clear signs that someone is monitoring my internet traffic.
And if I use Whonix which is based on TOR, a neigbour puts a bowl of onions in front of his flat.
Is this not a clear evidence that the TOR network has been hacked by the City Police of Zurich?
So what to do now? Hoping that there will be an update for the TOR network?
So that it is save again for people like me who are in investigation by the Police, are no criminals, but did not yet complain about this internet surveillance by the Police?
When I was looking for duved made from downs in the web, another neighbor left a box for a duvet of downs outside of her door of her flat. Does she control my internet, too, and does she work for the Police, too? What happened to my privacy rights? Can I only get it back by filing a complaint at the Police? Aren’t there any other solutions?
Are the investigators in Zurich the kind of investigators shown in the following comedy by Mullvad VPN?
I have clear evidence that this Comedy by Mullvad VPN is based on this case here:
Will the TOR network update this issue sooner or later? I do not have too much hope in it. Since I am interested in the TOR network since a long time. But it was not convincing for me personally up to the present day. Too slow, but also to little secure. In my case, it did not help much. But my case might be rare. But I will keep an eye on it.
And eventually will run a TOR relays too, to support the TOR community:
The best information I can find about it is from David Bombal, but also from the TOR forum:
https://forum.torproject.org/latest
and the Whonix forum
https://forums.whonix.org/latest
But the only people I know for instance who use Quebes OS which is based on TOR are the people from Mullvad in Sweden.
This information can be found from David Bombal in his Queubes OS installation video on YouTube. And I eventually will accept this internet surveillance forever. Since I found on regular basis YouTube videos on my PC from which I suspect that they are:
from my dental office I visit on a reagular basis which I love very much
And some of my friends seem to work for the Police. And I will eventually offer the Police to continue to monitor my Internet. And my friends can do it too, if they want to.
For instance I invite those to put a a nice video to my YouTube queue on my PC. Or I invite those to give me me a ring if they are monitoring my internet traffic.
And then I will eventually wear the same T-Shirt as Mental Outlaw with the slogan “Come and find it”
And I will try to fix this problem, until even the Police can t find my anymore.
I was trying to hide my location by using Mullvad VPN and the TOR network, but failed.
But I was found all the same. Cars from Australia an from all over the world where I have chosen my location with Mullvad to hide my location where parked in front of my house. So I failed with all of this tools to hide my location.
So I make it publicly. My location is:
Berneggweg 8, 8055 Zurich, Switzerland:
Here a picture of the Rebhügel housing development in the city of Zurich where I live.
I will try to solve the problem to hide my location with the tools which are available in the situation of an ongoing investigation by the Swiss Police. I am not a criminal.
The criminals are the others, some of my neighbours who live there. And I did not yet ask the Police for help regarding this topic, for the reasons I have indicated on my Blog site. This is an investigation by the Police which is happening altough I am not a criminal. And I eventually will not alsk the Police to stop it. One motivation for this is to help the developement of tools to hide our location, and to make this problem public and to solve it if possible.
And if it is not possible to to find a tool to hide my location in my case, I will go public about it, too. Since is this not an issue, which should be resolved?
And if the problem cannot be solved during an ongoing investigation by the Police, I will publish it, too. Since I am not a criminal, and I have nothing to hide regarding this topic. Is this not an issue, that there seem to be currently no tools available for private users to solve this problem, who are in an investigation by the Police, but are no criminals, and have not yet decided to ask the Police for help regarding this topic? How about developing the TOR network further? Would some scandalous events like those I experience currently in Zurich help so that many more people become interested in TOR, so that TOR network becomes better? Would TOR not be a good candidate to solve the problems I describe here? People who find it scandalous that it is so easy to get under the surveillance by the Police, and there seem to be currently no tools to protect oneself in such a case as described here? But would it not be necessary to reach this goal that a lot more people support TOR to make it much better and much more usable?
So would this be not a contribution the make the web more secure, when I will try to find solutions to fight against all of this unwanted internet surveillance? But the biggest issue about it is that I did not find yet tools to fight against this. And why should I stop it it now? It runs now since mid 2025 which about 15 month now. And I can live with this without too much problems.
And there are people much more advanced than me as experts in the field of internet privacy. If Mullvad VPN and TOR does not work in my case, I don t know what will happen now. I will most probably keep an eye on this topic on a regular basis. Since it is striking that in my case it seems not possible to have a solution which is not very expensive. But will this not change sooner or later? Especially the YouTube channel of David Bombal has a lot of information about this topic.
And I will keep an eye on the latest developments in internet security tools.
