Most important step, don’t put yourself in a situation, where a bounty hunter is after you to begin with.

You can do nothing wrong and still end up in this situation.

For example, get involved in a messy divorce, get out-lawyered, end up on the hook for astronomical amounts of retroactive child support. If you're not careful you might be dealing with a lot more than just the repo man.

Plus the way the legal system is in the US, a single unpaid parking ticket could spiral completely out of control into tens of thousands in late payment fees, fines, and jail time.

If you think privacy is unimportant for you because you have nothing to hide, you might as well say free speech is unimportant for you because you have nothing useful to say.

Law enforcement depends on the fact that no individual can reliably evade the power of the state for very long.

The existence of bounty hunters is in some ways just a bizzare commercialisation of what should be a government function.
