One of the aspects of COINTELPRO, workplace mobbing, community mobbing, gangstalking, etc. is the concept of "conspicuous observation". That is, placing the target individual under constant surveillance that is overt, or plainly visible. A detailed discussion of this topic can be found in a report released by the Department of Criminology, Kwantlen University, and the Department of Sociology, University of British Columbia. The report is titled "Observing the Observers: Researching Surveillance and Counter-Surveillance on 'Skid Row'." A short extract from the report is as follows; "For example, the private security study was initiated at the request of a local community group who wished to examine the use of security agents as a mechanism for pushing the area's poor out of the neighborhood. Community residents advised that overt conspicuous forms of surveillance were being employed by guards as a means of harassing panhandlers and other disadvantaged residents (including homeless, unemployed, physically disabled and mentally ill people), and thus to induce them to abandon their use of public space."
In practice, conspicuous observation consists of informants placed at or near the target individual's location. Typically, these informants will not be engaged in typical behavior, e.g. purchasing an item, meeting someone, etc. As such, their lack of productive activity (standing or sitting around doing nothing for example) makes them easy for the targeted individual to identify, but not identifiable to the general public. An apt term for this concept might be "hidden in plain sight". For a target that is not familiar with basic counter-surveillance tactics, being subjected to such harassment can induce feelings of unease, anger, and frustration. Conversely, a target with proper counter-surveillance training and equipment may, over time, be able to record and document a clear, demonstrable pattern of surveillance.
Vehicle harassment is also a concept to be aware of. Aggressive drivers are a factor as they tend to operate in a manner that would normally be considered reckless. An informant may attempt cutting your vehicle off in traffic, unsafe passing, weaving, approaching your vehicle at an unusually high rate of speed, disregarding traffic signs, etc. The subject of vehicle harassment is discussed at some length in a July 5th, 2008 report by National Public Radio entitled "FBI Surveillance Team Reveals Tricks Of The Trade". The audio portion of the NPR report has FBI surveillance members openly discussing overt, aggressive vehicle harassment against targets as a ubiquitous "trick of the trade".
