Watering Big Brother's Roots

Just a note concerning your freedom and that of your children. Don't want to intrude upon important matters.

The FBI has announced, proudly, it has commenced implementation of its new facial recognition system. Terrorism...bla....bla...protection....

This comes on the heels of Homeland Security, Department of Fisheries, and Social Security buying some 1.5 billion bullets. You never know when fish and terrorists in wheel chairs will attack.

The recent announcement does not include information mentioned two years ago about the system's actual design. It is designed to capture images from social media, et al., so that it will have a massive data base of everyone, everyone being potential terrorists as they may disagree with the state. 

Therefore, in a few years, as you walk down the street you can be identified in seconds and cameras can follow you automatically. I recommend watching British TV shows (I get them on Netflix) where the TV surveillance is old hat and a recent hit show was about the extensiveness and pending danger of total surveillance. The British have complied with the institution of total surveillance. We do not pay attention which, as Terence wrote long ago, "is consent."

You can be sure that in the near future, the police will be out arresting people who wear face masking of any type, even aliens, see below. Notice the move to re ban the wearing of religious head wair in Europe. This is contrary to the open society philosophy currently polluting Europe. It is sold as blocking terrorism, all the while nations are pretending to be politically correct about Muslim practices and not profiling. Simple masks will defeat Big Brother, so you can see what will happen.

In England the rule is "do you trust Big Brother?," not "I am free." The lie is you have to put up with control to make you safe. Doubleplusgood speak. We are in the middle of this decision point and making a decision against freedom. 

The FBI reported it has 60% compliance in hooking up local police forces! We have a national police force working for the President. Did you sign up for this? Do local police have any idea they are becoming brown shirts?

So, I suggest removing photos. Leave the one in with you wearing a blue elephant hat. Or, one with a sign threatening to bomb terrorists for Christ.  

I hope you have not been putting anything substantive online, unless it is in praise of the Praetorian Guard.  Recall the recent posts about arrests by the Feds, along with local police, based upon Facebook posts. The last one arrest was dismissed after a one hour hearing, but the damage is done - people will begin to fear. The defendant was not victorious, we were all victims. 

Facebook is trolled to find key words as well as other indicia I could not even guess at. This is serious stuff for all of us, not just nut jobs.

Google hands over files of customers to the Feds upon request. That is correct, upon request. The files includes all the data they collect on you, which is everything that passes by their gates. Years ago, I was VP at First Interstate Bancard, N.A.  I got a call to deal with an FBI agent who showed up at our massively secured credit card center and asked to see someone's file.

This sent alarms among bankers. I talked with the agent in the cafeteria and said I don't think we can release information, he did not seem surprised, but I went to call the main legal office. They agreed and the agent left in a friendly manner. Today, banks give up information without a warrant, if it is not merely extracted in secret. http://money.msn.com/taxes/canada-tells-irs-to-back-off-marketwatch.aspx

People will, as it always the case, create an entire network around Big Brother thereby destroying our national community and public economy, giving rise to further "justified" state action. This is how Russia worked for a hundred years - everything was in the shadows and sometimes, someone was caught who had not paid off the police or courts. Then, the system collapsed; however, the oligarchs are back in control, as always happens without a Constitution that is protected.

We will become another Italy where voluntary tax compliance makes no sense.  You can see how their economy is doing. Italians are brilliant and hard working; their troubles have nothing to do with being without a foundation for a great nation. Socialists nations are popular with the users and the producers visit with John Galt. If you do not get that reference, I suggest you look into it.

Look for new software encrypting messages followed by the arrest of the entrepreneurs who refuse to release back doors into messages. In the meantime, people may want to invent new words. Grok?  (not a new one, actually)

Now, England is placing CCTV on private homes. I get the impression the goal is to put it in homes, exactly like in Orwell's 1-9-8-4.  See, my attempt to have the book reference undetected by the NSA.

A little excerpt from a 2008 site discussing the NSA:

...Supporters say the NSA is serving as a key bulwark against foreign terrorists and that it would be reckless to constrain the agency's mission. The NSA says it is scrupulously following all applicable laws and that it keeps Congress fully informed of its activities. 

According to current and former intelligence officials, the spy agency now monitors huge volumes of records of domestic emails and Internet searches as well as bank transfers, credit-card transactions, travel and telephone records. The NSA receives this so-called "transactional" data from other agencies or private companies, and its sophisticated software programs analyze the various transactions for suspicious patterns. Then they spit out leads to be explored by counterterrorism programs across the U.S. government, such as the NSA's own Terrorist Surveillance Program, formed to intercept phone calls and emails between the U.S. and overseas without a judge's approval when a link to al Qaeda is suspected. 

The NSA's enterprise involves a cluster of powerful intelligence-gathering programs, all of which sparked civil-liberties complaints when they came to light. They include a Federal Bureau of Investigation program to track telecommunications data once known as Carnivore, now called the Digital Collection System, and a U.S. arrangement with the world's main international banking clearinghouse to track money movements. 

The effort also ties into data from an ad-hoc collection of so-called "black programs" whose existence is undisclosed, the current and former officials say. Many of the programs in various agencies began years before the 9/11 attacks but have since been given greater reach. Among them, current and former intelligence officials say, is a longstanding Treasury Department program to collect individual financial data including wire transfers and credit-card transactions....

Of course, the laws that the NSA says it complies with are easily changed or circumvented in the dark.  Be aware that every transaction you make using a bank is collected. You Internet use is kept. Bytes are cheap, but freedom is priceless.
