What if you want to let someone you trust (friends, family, lawyers, journalists …) that you are in trouble and they should look out for you?

I think you left out the word know from the above paragraph.

For a lot of people, their biggest threats will be personal relationships: an abusive relative or ex, someone they are currently divorcing. That seems to not make your threat assessment chart and I don't know if that's a good thing or not.

Indeed :) Thank you! Already fixed it in the online version.

I'm not sure this level of "paranoia" is required to evade an abusive ex in most cases. But in any case, if a reader thinks it is, the guide can help for sure.
