Admirers of Saruman have crafted their own Palantíri, it seems.

I recall the Unfinished Tales essay mentioning a process called "shrouding", which could enable one to hide from the surveillance. Perhaps that could be my new calling in my impending retirement....

Before becoming Gondor's first democratically elected king, Aragorn passed around voting pamphlets with the text:
