Becoming a sovereign entity is another issue, but AFV is often connected to it.
That article was clearly written by someone who hadn't done their research on the subject. What the Brinkles did was officially emancipate themselves
from their strawman....
Yeah, that's something that an increasing number of people have been doing. There's some basic info & links about this over in
this thread about how the law structure is really written up & enforced, but the
"emancipation" concept you mention can be taken even another step further...
Obtaining all copyrights on that Strawman so that anytime someone
else tries to make money from the Strawman-name, they have to deal with
you, acting as the Strawman's "agent," for royalties and/or
obtaining limited license to do so. In that same linked thread, I wrote a post
here that contains a few helpful links for more solid info & actual legal
aid to pull it off
right & legally. This may even require proper use of Affidavits, duly recorded & filed. Right
here is a good example of such an affidavit, but be mindful that
proper affidavits
may vary slightly in other States.
Here is a website where you can find
some examples of "common" affidavits that get a lot of use for various purposes, but there's a lot of other places you can find from any decent
search engine.

Now here's a linksoveriegn entities to some people who declared themselves separate from
the US
This is commonly referred to as becoming an "expatriate" from a national government...Another good website where people link together as expatriates
is
Sovereign Life. Here they discuss good options to help keep your financing safer from government so that
they don't "confiscate" everything you've built up. Also includes info & advice on financing, investments & general, overall, good info on how you
can best remain as a free person by continually moving around various countries...Sort of like becoming a "permanent tourist." It works like this
because, to become a "taxable citizen" in any country, you have to be "in residence" for a certain consecutive number of months before they can
tax you (generally, it's a 6 month period), so if you keep moving between 2 or 3 different countries every so often, you can't be classified as a
"resident citizen" subject to many of the tax laws. To get set up for this is very likely to require at least two passports & dual
citizenship...This has recently become a very sticky issue with the public, concerning how many of the US government officers have already obtained
multiple citizenships. If you don't intend to mix a political career in with your own "self-protection," you shouldn't run into any problems
though...
The rest of your post (from which I pulled your quote) is right though...There's more information & links on what you describe at the thread I linked
in my first paragraph in this post (Ooops! I just noticed that it's the same thread-link as the last one in your post
). On every official
document that has your name in all capital letters is in truth referring to your Strawman. This is not only used on official government documents, but
on all other contracts as well (such as loan applications, or any other contracts with a corporation). This is why it's so important that you do make
the legal distinction between yourself & that Strawman...In a nutshell, it's mostly a "mental discipline" to remember who you
really are &
backing it up with legal documentation.

Oooops! An official "legal" marriage is just another contract! In essence, it's a financial & legal "partnership/merger" between two "strawman
corporations!" You can avoid a lot of the legal hassles with that by going with a Common Law Marriage instead.
