Recommended reading on the “On being mobbed” blog

In August of 2015, I created On being mobbed and started blogging about the crime that took me as its victim in the rarified enclave of South Cedar Park, Seattle and later on, Albany, California. Along the way, as I’ve come to better  understand how this crime works and learned about the technologies that are involved and how they are likely applied, I’ve written blog entries that document the crime of real estate mobbing and forced eviction as it is expressed on the west coast. Because mobbing is a predatory crime with the underpinnings of right-wing politics and of hate, On being mobbed is written with the hope of getting the attention of investigative authorities, network and domestic security specialists, criminologists and forensic specialists who should be interested in how this crime unfolds, how the crime enlists and appears to spread across networks of block coordinators and captains from organizations like the National Neighborhood Watch (now partnering with Nextdoor, which has an active real estate component) as well as emergency services and disaster planning groups. Depending on my level of stress, my energy, and the moment, some of the blog entries are better written than others, and some may be far more useful than others in revealing how the crime works and pointing investigators as well as other victims in the right direction.

The following is a shortlist of recommended reading on this blog site, On being mobbed. Read the posts from 2021 to 2022 to get some understanding of how property mobbing is grid warfare and to gain some understanding of the sheer vulnerability of residential infrastructure. Note that this page is only periodically maintained and may not list some of the most recent and useful content.

The Old List of Recommended Readings

The following old list remains only as backup while I try to create a more useful updated list.

[Note 11/03/22: Of the original shortlist of blogs, I might recommend “Mobbing close to the bone,” “My neighborhood has a problem with bullying” for background information, “The use of anti-harassment orders,” to understand one of the ways in which mobbers abuse civil process, “On being mobbed” for the origin story of this blog, and maybe the Martha Mitchell ones.]
