Now that sounds like books Al Qaeda cells might want to purchase.
Really, how illegal is this material?

In the USA we have a thing called freedom of speech. The books themselves are perfectly legal to purchase, read and own.
RGE Publishing sells to a worldwide market. Certain topics discussed in the books may be illegal in some jurisdictions. It is the responsibility of the purchaser to comply with the law in his/her area.
The books are sold for educational purposes only. Neither RGE Publishing, Advantageplayer.com, or anyone affiliated with this website advocates breaking any laws.

Everything we carry is perfectly legal in the U.S., to both publish and purchase. Other nations may vary.
The sad fact is that regardless of your political persuasion, American legislation like the Patriot Act, DCMA, and others that have been enacted since 9/11 has made it much more difficult to maintain multiple identities for perfectly legitimate reasons, which is the legal plying of your trade. The casinos have taken full advantage of their new powers in an effort to make anonymous play a thing of the past...
To give you an idea of the attitude the casinos have about players and life in general, we got a call from someone ordering Card Counter for the Casino Executive, who happened to be the target audience of the book, who asked to pick the book up since we were local. When we told him we are a mail-order business only, his response was "Why, what are you trying hide?" Suspicion, mistrust, and an assumption of their right to know everything about you is ingrained in their soul, and advantage players need to be more knowledgeable then ever about identity management to protect themselves.
Good Cards,

Does that common law right extend to owning and using more than one social security number or drivers license?

I was just wondering what you thought about owning two social security munbers and/or drivers license. That's all.
To answer your question, I gave up believing I was Bugsy Siegal a long time ago.
"The government doesn't like it? Screw'em. They exist to serve us, not the other way around."
Hmmm:
(a) Ask not what ...,
(b) In a democracy we are the government and (everywhere) people get the government they deserve.

A state's statutory law is controlling over any principle of common law which may be at variance. Common law is only a guide, and not a very good one at that. The best that can be said that if there is no controlling statute, then one may look to the common law for assistance. As a practical matter, this is not the case anymore.
In the case of a driver's license, because it is a government document, possession of a fraudulent issue can be and often is against the law. This is true in Nevada. While you are not going to be in a heap of trouble if there is no fraud involved, you will still probably have to hire a lwayer to straighten things out. For most people, lawyers are bad EV.
As for a social security number, one can set up an account in a name other than that given at birth, but this has to be with the knowledge and consent of the social security admin. If you simply purchase or produce your own and try to pass it off as the real McCoy, you are no doubt going to be in violation of the U.S. Code.
