Lao Tzu says that in preparing a defense you welcome an enemy. If we create from our thought and intent, why would we take steps? This thinking instantly puts most people into fear mode, but when you live it and nothing happens fear totally loses any gravity, these discussions are tiresome. People ramdomly go crazy and target people on the internet probably less often than home invasions on houses with unlocked doors. But again quantitative analysis brings us back into the fearful analysis mode and out of abundant loving mode. Hard idea to explain, and my analytical brain comprehends the woowoo, but woowoo is critically important in that thought.

It's also about government, government officials and large (ethically challenged) corporations and "organized crime" that one needs to be on guard against. Even if you host with a provider in another jurisdiction who will resist revealing your information, the WHOIS data is a sitting duck. I don't think this piece of advice from Lao Tzu applies to our post-Snowden world. Definitely not for people who are against the powers that be (and on whom healthy democracies depend on).
