I wouldn't do that. I would miss my job, my friends, my family and the sedentary life of the city. 
You can travel and visit them?

I thought opting out of society was meant literally so I pictured someone becoming a hermit of sorts. Maybe I misunderstood either way maybe you could go to the rainforest, jungles or desert and start fresh there some place that is very hard to survive unless you have the knowledge to do so... That way you can pretty much be assured you will be left alone.
Doing a retreat could be an effective way to opt out of society, a retreat in Tibe.t for exemple
If you change your nationality you basically opt out of a country for an other one and you can just forget your old life if you didn't do something illegal before you left

Create your own country like Sealand or the Principality of Hutt River. And you will the king in your own new kingdom.
the become 'doctor doom' and try to conquer the world. if something go south just say 'you can't reach me it's my own country you have no jurisdiction here' 
~9 months a year (not the summer) you can live in 'anarchist' Slab City.

opting out of society doesn't mean opting out of any possible contact with familly and friends, it's just that you don't follow everything and every trend that is out, you are not connected with your various devices severals hours a day, and you are not being flooded with different kinds of porpaganda every day and every second

Wouldn't you like that?I wouldn't do that. I would miss my job, my friends, my family and the sedentary life of the city.
The easiest way to opt out of society is to overcome society
Basically stop being a worker(Slave) and be one of the elite fat cats by making a lot of money
Then society works for you and you don't need to partake in society itself but just be a parasite that feeds it.

It's possible, non the less it will require some dedication and it will be hard in the begining, but once you get into it, it's not possible especially if you decide to live in the country side in a remoted area
Seasteading is really your only option. Prohibitively expensive but maybe in a couple decades (or centuries) material science will advance enough to make it a reality. Cryptocurrency would be a perfect extra-national currency for extra-national people.

Wouldn't you like that?
I don't think so... Some dude just got shot dead for camping in the middle of nowhere. They threw a concussion grenade at him after the called him over to talk and when he ran they shot him dead. Seems like you will pay taxes till death or be shot dead in the middle of nowhere for no reason if you don't.

become a hermit.
^ this
become a hermit.
you would still be involved with society . its impossible to completly opt out and be off the grid. sometime your gonna dela with society and you will always have to follow laws.
Where do you live? There's tons of backcountry in the U.S. where people live off-grid. Shit there's even legally-protected land set aside for communities that live different ways of life. Ofcourse, being a hermit, you'll never have any real protection from other citizens (or from the government for that matter).
Bitcointalk is part of society :-)

i have the same thoughts. if i go out into the woods to live off the grid society wouldnt let this happen and id most likely break laws some how. i believe that if we live inside of the USA we are not allowed to opt out of society and all of its bullshit. we just have to live.
