It's like if you think someone is following you to do you harm, you don't go into a dark deserted alley, you try to find some place with lots of light and lots of people.
So, no, no legitimate intelligence operate or ex operative practicing "tradecraft" would choose this moment to disappear if his concern was his personal safety. He would do the opposite: be as public and noticeable as possible. He would go on the news media shows and very publicly give interviews stating that he fears for his safety and if anything happens to him, Putin was the one who ordered the hit. Even if it looks like an accident (brakes failed or something).
On the other hand, financial scammers and con artists are the types who pull these kind of disappearing acts, and they do it all the time.
Steele was very useful to the intelligence agencies and media outlets who are now claiming he was a "reliable source" because he provided them all with easy plausible deniability. Steele could just sit down at his word processor and make up any old shit. If he had a bit of a conscience he might call one of his old cronies back in Russia and say "Hey man I need a source for some shit I am going to make up for a client. So I need you to make up some thing lurid about Trump. When I get paid I will give you 10%."
Or maybe Steele didn't even do that with this Trump nonsense. Maybe he just completely made the whole thing up. Wouldn't have been a problem except Trump got elected and somehow the thing got leaked to the point where it blew up on Steele. He can't back up anything, he knows how litigious Trump is, and he needs to hide to avoid the process servers that he knows are coming his way.
Also he probably committed any number of federal crimes in fabricating this stuff--mail fraud, wire fraud, and I'm sure there's a few other felonies in there too.
So that's why he vanished. Just like every other scammer who's about to be exposed as a scammer.

Maybe his cybersecurity czar can install parental controls on his internet. They need him on lockdown until his staff is awake and can deal with him.

Good point, PP.
Oh by the way--I have an unverified report on you that you like golden showers. Unverified doesn't mean "false" so it must be true.
PP, why do you like golden showers?
I don't care if you say it.
I would probably care if US INTELLIGENCE said it.
Mine statement has weight. The other doesn't.
But US intelligence didn't say that..so now you're just gorrsly misinformed. Can't tell it it's because of you lack of intelligence or you're willfully misinformed due to your hatred of Trump.

Hi may be incapable of shame. But if the allegations are found to be true, he has just demonstrated that he is a EUWWGE liar. Because he stood up at his press conference and denied it.
I don't think even conservatives would want a proven lying liar. Would they? Wouldn't they rather go to the VP or even to Paul Ryan?

But salacious material only provides leverage if you can use it to embarrass the target. Trump is incapable of shame.

The golden showers rumors will just taint Trump forever.
No they won't. How long did the pussy-grabbing video have any impact? A week or two, tops?
You see as the left keeps throwing various forms of monkey feces at Trump, the impact wears off. There's no novelty left at all with this stuff. The hookers/Golden Showers story is so over the top that Trump has now been almost entirely insulated from the negative impact of any future lies that the left can throw at him.
And unfortunately, now the left is like the boy who cried wolf. If you guys ever actually get anything real on Trump no one will listen because you've been shouting lies for way too long at way too high of a volume.
It's a good theory, but the report was commissioner by Jeb Bush. But ya, it's all the left crying wolf.
Just like Trump cried wolf about Obama being born in Kenya.
