How to hide data on the Web

The Head Lemur has posted a great rant explaining why hiding your data and posting it to the Web are mutually incompatible notions:

1. Take it down from the publicly available internet location.
2. Turn off the computer with the original files.
3. Remove the harddrive.
4. Destroy the harddrive by using a 18 LB sledge hammer.
5. Bury the remains in a land fill.
6. Have hypnosis to remove any traces of memory of the above…

The web is the last place in the world to attempt to hide anything. The code is against you. The browser is against you. The computer and its connection is against you. The structure and protocols used in the Internet are against you. I am against you, but I did offer you a solution that I know works.
