I suspect this wasn’t the secret service. They’re a bit busy these days, what with the war and all.

Want anonymity? Make a persona not a mystery.

The technique described here are called “apparent cover.” The idea of apparent cover is that the observer fills in the cover story based on the clues provided. For example someone dressed as a fisherman — vest with pockets, floppy canvas hat, fishing pole, tackle box — hanging out at the docks at dawn, an observer is unlikely to even notice them but if they did they’d assume they’re a fisherman. Not a spy.
