If you live in the United States today, you need to understand that your privacy is being constantly eroded. Our world is going crazy, government paranoia is off the charts and law enforcement authorities have become absolutely obsessed with watching us, listening to us, tracking us, recording us, compiling information on all of us and getting us all to spy on one another. If you doubt that we are rapidly getting to the point where the government will monitor every breath you take and every move you make, just read the rest of this article. The truth is that the government is watching you more closely than ever, and they are spending billions upon billions of dollars to enhance their surveillance capabilities even further. If our society stays on this current path, we will eventually have zero privacy left. At this point, it is not too hard to imagine a society where we will not be able to say anything, buy anything, sell anything, assemble with others or even leave our homes without government permission. We truly are descending into a dystopian nightmare and the American people had better wake up. Sadly, most people living in the United States and in Europe do not realize what is happening. Most of them think that everything is just fine. The "Big Brother control grid" that is being constructed all over the western world squeezes all of us just a little bit tighter every single day, and most people don't even feel it. But when you step back and take a look at the big picture, it truly is horrifying. The following are 14 new ways that the government is watching you.... #1 In many areas of the United States today, you will be arrested if you do not produce proper identification for the police. In the old days, "your papers please" was a phrase that we used to use to mock the tyranny of Nazi Germany. But now all of us are being required to be able to produce "our papers" for law enforcement authorities at any time. For example, a 21-year-old college student named Samantha Zucker was recently arrested and put in a New York City jail for 36 hours just because she could not produce any identification for police. #2 The federal government has decided that what you and I share with one another on Facebook and on Twitter could be a threat to national security. According to a recent Associated Press article, the Department of Homeland Security will soon be "gleaning information from sites such as Twitter and Facebook for law enforcement purposes". Other law enforcement agencies are getting into the act as well. For example, the NYPD recently created a special "social media" unit dedicated to looking for criminals on social media networks such as Facebook and Twitter. #3 New high-tech street lights that are being funded by the federal government and that are being installed all over the nation can also be used as surveillance cameras, can be used by the DHS to make "security announcements" and can even be used to record personal conversations. The following is from a recent article by Paul Joseph Watson for Infowars.com.... #4 More than a million hotel television sets all over America are now broadcasting propaganda messages from the Department of Homeland Security promoting the "See Something, Say Something" campaign. In essence, the federal government wants all of us to become "informants" and to start spying on one another constantly. The following comes from an article posted by USA Today.... #5 The FBI is now admittedly recording Internet talk radio programs all over the United States. The following comes from a recent article by Mark Weaver of WMAL.com.... The FBI has awarded a $524,927 contract to a Virginia company to record as much radio news and talk programming as it can find on the Internet. The FBI says it is not playing big brother by policing the airwaves, but rather seeking access to what airs as potential evidence. Potential evidence of what? This is very creepy. Why is the FBI so interested in what is being said during Internet talk radio programs? #6 TSA VIPR teams are now conducting random inspections at bus stations and on interstate highways all over the United States. For example, the following comes from a local news report down in Tennessee.... "Where is a terrorist more apt to be found? Not these days on an airplane more likely on the interstate," said Tennessee Department of Safety & Homeland Security Commissioner Bill Gibbons. Tuesday Tennessee was first to deploy VIPR simultaneously at five weigh stations and two bus stations across the state. #7 Thermal imaging face scanners are becoming much more sophisticated. Law enforcement authorities in the western world are getting very excited about "pre-crime" tools such as this that will enable them to "prevent crimes" before they happen. The following is from a recent BBC News article.... The computerised system uses a simple video camera, a high-resolution thermal imaging sensor and a suite of algorithms. Researchers say the system could be a powerful aid to security services. But face scanners are not just a tool that will be used in the future. The truth is that face scanners are being used all over the United States right now. The following comes from an article posted on Singularity Hub.... Before long, technology like this will be all over America. In fact, the FBI has announced that it will be activating a "nationwide facial recognition service" in January. #8 Another "pre-crime" technology currently being tested by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security is The Future Attribute Screening Technology (FAST) program. The following description of this new program comes from an article in the London Telegraph.... It also monitors breathing patterns, eye movements, blink rate and alterations in body heat, which are used to assess an individual's likelihood to commit a crime. The Future Attribute Screening Technology (FAST) programme is already being tested on a group of government employees who volunteered to act as guinea pigs. Do you want government officials to pull you aside and interrogate you just because you are feeling a little bit nervous one particular day? #9 Sadly, "pre-crime" technology is even being used on our children. The Florida State Department of Juvenile Justice has announced that it will begin using analysis software to predict crime by young delinquents and will place "potential offenders" in specific prevention and education programs. How soon will it be before this type of things is applied to adults? #10 Our children are being programmed to accept the fact that they will be watched and monitored constantly. For example, the U.S. Department of Agriculture is spending large amounts of money to install surveillance cameras in the cafeterias of public schools all across the nation so that government control freaks can closely monitor what our children are eating. #11 The U.S. government is also increasingly using "polls" and "surveys" as tools to gather information about all of us. In previous articles, I have noted how government authorities seems particularly interested in our children. According to Mike Adams of Natural News, the CDC is starting to call parents all over the U.S. to question them about the vaccination status of their children.... You can see a copy of the letter that the CDC has been sending out to selected parents right here. #12 As I have written about previously, a very disturbing document that Oath Keepers has obtained shows that the FBI is now instructing store owners to report many new forms of "suspicious activity" to them. According to the document, "suspicious activity" now includes the following.... *paying with cash *missing a hand or fingers *"strange odors" *making "extreme religious statements" *"radical theology" *purchasing weatherproofed ammunition or match containers *purchasing meals ready to eat *purchasing night vision devices, night flashlights or gas masks Do any of those "signs of suspicious activity" apply to you? According to a report on WorldNetDaily, this document is part of a "series of brochures" that will be distributed "to farm supply stores, gun shops, military surplus stores and even hotels and motels." #13 In some areas of the country, law enforcement authorities are pulling data out of cell phones for no reason whatsoever. According to the ACLU, state police in Michigan are now using "extraction devices" to download data from the cell phones of motorists that they pull over. This is taking happening even if the motorists that are pulled over are not accused of doing anything wrong. The following is how a recent article on CNET News described the capabilities of these "extraction devices".... #14 The government can spy on us and record our conversations seemingly without any limitation, but in many areas of the country it has become illegal to watch them or record them in public. For example, one 21-year-old man down in Florida was recently arrested for trying to document a confrontation that he was having with police on his iPhone. But if we can't record them, how can we prove our side of the story in court? America is becoming a much different place. Our privacy is being eroded in thousands of different ways. National governments and big corporations know far more about you than you probably ever would imagine. Yes, there will always be "security threats", but we should not have to throw away any of our rights in order to be "safe". America is supposed to be about liberty and freedom. America is supposed to be the land of the free and the home of the brave. If given the choice between living in "1984" and living in "1776", I know what my choice would be. I would choose 1776. I would choose liberty and freedom even if it meant that the world around me was a little bit less "safe". What about you? What would you choose? Federally-funded high-tech street lights now being installed in American cities are not only set to aid the DHS in making “security announcements” and acting as talking surveillance cameras, they are also capable of “recording conversations,” bringing the potential privacy threat posed by ‘Intellistreets’ to a whole new level.
Starting today, the welcome screens on 1.2 million hotel television sets in Marriott, Hilton, Sheraton, Holiday Inn and other hotels in the USA will show a short public service announcement from DHS. The 15-second spot encourages viewers to be vigilant and call law enforcement if they witness something suspicious during their travels.
If you call a radio talk show and get on the air, you might be recorded by the FBI.
You're probably used to seeing TSA's signature blue uniforms at the airport, but now agents are hitting the interstates to fight terrorism with Visible Intermodal Prevention and Response (VIPR).
A sophisticated new camera system can detect lies just by watching our faces as we talk, experts say.
Law enforcement continues to adopt new technologies in an effort to make their jobs easier and keep us safer. The latest gizmo attaches to officers’ iPhones and turns them into biometric face scanners. The scanners have already been street tested in Massachusetts. Pretty soon cops all across the US will be using them to ID suspects.
Using cameras and sensors the "pre-crime" system measures and tracks changes in a person's body movements, the pitch of their voice and the rhythm of their speech.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control, which has been comprehensively exposed as a vaccine propaganda organization promoting the interests of drug companies, is now engaged in a household surveillance program that involves calling U.S. households and intimidating parents into producing child immunization records. As part of what it deems a National Immunization Survey(NIS), the CDC is sending letters to U.S. households, alerting them that they will be called by "NORC at the University of Chicago" and that households should "have your child's immunization records handy when answering our questions."
The devices, sold by a company called Cellebrite, can download text messages, photos, video, and even GPS data from most brands of cell phones. The handheld machines have various interfaces to work with different models and can even bypass security passwords and access some information.

It sucks. Break the Conventions - Keep the Commandments - G.K.Chesterson Yeah, indeed it does. To me, this is one of Sting's better songs (done after his stint with the Police). Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. Lord Acton The human herd stampedes on the fields of facts and the valleys of truth to get to the desert of ignorance. Saman Mohammadi The only difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits. Albert Einstein "...if the military is going to defend our freedoms, then we need freedoms to defend. Our freedoms must be restored before the military can defend them..." Lawrence M. Vance Você me trata desse jeito só porque eu sou preto. Junior (my youngest son)
Beautiful - thanks!
Break the Conventions - Keep the Commandments - G.K.Chesterson I don't have a facebook account, but my friend does and I get on it occasionally just to read what her friends think is important enough to let the world know. You would be surprised! Some people are so dumb they have posted that the only reason someone was still alive was because they didn't have enough money to hire a hitman! When questioned about it by another friend they said they were serious. Anything posted in a public site with your real name on it is just too easy for law enforcement to not monitor. It's not like they even have to do any hard investigative work, people are dumb enough to post it to the world. Of course they think only their "friends" can see it, but in reality anyone that is a friend of a friend can also see it! Also anyone that gets on a friends facebook account can see it. When you post anything on facebook you should know it is very PUBLIC! If you don't want the world to see it, don't post it. God is always good!
Whatever, to me it is one of the best songs ever. God is always good!
Maybe for some people, maybe even most people, but there are some people that no equipment could detect them lying. Why? Cause when they lie they believe it and do not think of it as a lie. They make their own reality in their own heads. God is always good!
Chapter one verse one:"Do you know why it's called "The American Dream"?

Hey, they should use this on Cain, that sucker blinks a lot before he answers some questions. What crime is he thinking of committing? I got a real bad feeling about that guy. Anyone that would suck up to the elite the way he does is capable of anything. God is always good!
I opened an account briefly at the urging of my daughter, but it was too creepy so I closed it.

Never thought I would but my stepdaughter asked me to join so I did.

I really think the NSA and FBI etc., are just flat out thrilled and amazed by Facebook. I would imagine they are thrilled with ANY site where people candidly express their views, at least the ones that aren't encrypted so well (or people using code they didn't know) that it would take their best hackers a week to know what anyone was saying.

More likely the other way around. I identified myself as an enemy of the state here long before I went there. And I posted virtually nothing there.
