Many of those who leave, or are forced to leave the Church of Scientology,
still want to persue the philosophy and technology of Scientology. Traditionally the COS has labelled such people "Squirrels", meaning someone who dosn't understand scientology well, can't get it to work and thus alters it to something unworkable or even dangerous. This is in fact a reversal of the actual situation as it exists. Most of the older and most highly trained technical personnel are no longer in COS. Many of these are working in what is referred to as the " Freezone", a loose network, worldwide of
people interested in Scientology and its benefits. In practice per policies on
"Suppressive Acts" its not possible to do scientology outside the COS and NOT be considered " suppressive"!
On looking over the products and activities of the COS one may consider that this organisation in fact practices its' most important policies reversely. Consider The "First Policy", " Maintain friendly relations with the environment and your public." Gentle reader, were this policy not reversed you probably would not be reading this website now.
Similarly the Church's Statement that it is those outside the Church who alter thetech is reversed. See the documentation regarding alterations, including the very serious alteration of the definition of an F/N which led to the alteration of
how tech was instructed, (refered to by the church as the Golden Age of
Tech or GAT for short.)

Below are a couple of the more important Freezone websites, and
you can link to a couple of Freezone discussion forums from them. Here
you can talk with people who can deliver just about any scientology auditing from Life
Repair up to and including the original and new OT levels and the L's.

As well as the " standard tech " Freezone, there are also offshoots and developments of tech which are sometimes considered part of the Freezone, but may prefer to be
called " Independants". Some of these can be referenced at this website
below. Also on this website are the very eloquent and passionate writings on Church reform by Ken Ogger AKA " The Pilot".

A Brief History of the Freezone
The Freezone is primarily composed of people who left the Church of Scientology, or were thrown out.
They also wanted to continue with their spiritual progress using standard Scientology technology.
There were three main prongs to the great exodus from the CofS, all
occurring around 1982-3. First Captain Bill Robertson, who was the
third highest ranking officer in the command structure, after LRH and
Mary Sue. He left the CofS when he could no longer get in touch with
LRH. It was he that coined the phrase "The Free Zone". He founded the
organisations known as "Ron's Orgs". These function for the most part
in Europe.
David Mayo was appointed Senior C/S International. By LRH. The highest
technical post in CofS. He wrote many HCOB's and has his signature on
the bottom of them. He co-authored many of the upper levels, and was
Ron's auditor and C/S.
David was taken off post by David Miscavige, and severely mistreated in the
RPF. He eventually escaped and later set up Advanced Ability Clinics
which delivered Scn. The CofS forced him out of business by legal
means. They saw him as competition. Those in our organisation who did
services with him are full of praise for the quality of service they
recieved.
Also around this time the mission network, (or franchises) was broken
up by savage actions from upper CofS management. Many of the mission
holders, experienced technical terminals, withdrew from association
with the CofS, and set up independently. They also were harassed
legally by the CofS.
Since that time people have been leaving the CofS. It seems that the
core of very well trained technical terminals is much reduced in the
Church. One example, is that around two years ago, roughly 50% of all
the Class 12 auditors that had ever been produced were no longer
working for the CofS.
Part of the purpose of the Freezone is to be a network linking up such
people, and linking them to people who want their services. A network
where able beings are not trapped and restricted by policies that never
should have been, such as fair game and disconnection. Where one is
free of knowledge reports on any utterance that is not party line.
Where we can be a free people.
Here I quote one of the earliest spokepersons for the Freezone. One who
called herself "Electra Magdalena, a Voice of the Freezone."
"Then I found the Free Zone. And I made more case gain.
And then I found the internet.
And it became my goal to end this scarcity of communication in the Free Zone forever.
To pull out the control rods on the Free Zone."
