Todos somos sospechosos

La policía británica se comporta cada vez más como un servicio de inteligencia. Ha elaborado una base de datos con información sobre miles de personas que han participado en todo tipo de manifestaciones. La intención es combatir el "extremismo interno", un concepto sin base legal y que cubre a cualquiera que haya participado en una movilización aunque no haya cometido ningún delito.

¿Cómo es posible? Lo explica uno de los mandos policiales:

"Just because you have no criminal record does not mean that you are not of interest to the police," he said. "Everyone who has got a criminal record did not have one once."

En los tiempos de la guerra fría, al menos existía el argumento de la amenaza de un poderoso enemigo exterior que podía manipular en su beneficio las protestas internas. Ahora ya ni siquiera hay que disimular. Si alguien sale a la calle para defender sus ideas en vez de quedarse en casa viendo la televisión, es sospechoso. Quizá no le detengamos esta vez, pero seguro que lo pillaremos la próxima. De momento, nos quedamos con su foto y todos los datos que podamos recabar.

¿Inocentes hasta que no se demuestre lo contrario? Oiga, usted ha visto muchas películas.
Si no te callas, eres un extremista.

NSA Supercenters to Store Americans' Private Data Permanently

The National Security Agency is building huge new storage facilities to store the unconstitutionally gained data on the American people's telephone calls and Internet traffic permanently, including new buildings in suburban Salt Lake City, Utah, and San Antonio, Texas.

The NSA has been keeping permanent records of all American's telephone call habits and Internet traffic since shortly after September 11, 2001, according to major news reports, without the constitutionally required warrants from a court.

No longer able to store all the intercepted phone calls and e-mail in its Ft. Meade, Maryland, headquarters, the NSA is engaging in its own housing boom. How much data will these giant, multibillion dollar new facilities hold? According to James Bamford of the New York Review of Books, the facility in Utah alone could hold data that will be measured in Yottabytes. Never heard of Yottabytes? You're not alone. Most computers sold at stores still measure their storage at gigabytes, or billions of bits of data. A few store a terrabyte of information, or one trillion bits of information. That's 1,000,000,000,000 pieces of information. Yottabytes is the highest number that has yet been named in computer information. The number is septillions of billions of bits of data, or 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bits of data.

In his review of Matthew M. Aid's new book on the NSA, The Secret Sentry: The Untold History of the National Security Agency, Bamford noted that the NSA assault on the Constitution's Fourth Amendment has taken place without public opposition or even public debate. “Unlike the British government, which, to its great credit, allowed public debate on the idea of a central data bank,” Bamford wrote, “the NSA obtained the full cooperation of much of the American telecom industry in utmost secrecy after September 11.” And when the British government held that debate, the people rose up against such a “big brother”-style plan:

When the plans were released by the UK government, there was an immediate outcry from both the press and the public, leading to the scrapping of the "big brother database," as it was called. In its place, however, the government came up with a new plan. Instead of one vast, centralized database, the telecom companies and Internet service providers would be required to maintain records of all details about people's phone, e-mail, and Web-browsing habits for a year and to permit the government access to them when asked. That has led again to public anger and to a protest by the London Internet Exchange, which represents more than 330 telecommunications firms.

Not so in America, where economically challenged communities are welcoming the multibillion dollar construction work to create the facilities. Freedom can be traded for temporary prosperity, according to local officials in Utah, as reported by a news segment on KSL, Salt Lake City's NBC affiliate.

“The data center is estimated to be 1 million square feet, sitting on 200-acres, and it couldn't come at a better time for Utah's economy,” KSL reported, and will cost taxpayers nearly $2 billion. The report went on to enthuse that “even Congressman Jason Chaffetz is excited. From Washington he told KSL News: 'It's a benefit to our economy and our national security.'"

In San Antonio, the NSA is dramatically expanding an existing facility rather than creating a new one. San Antonio Current writer Greg M. Schwartz explained how the expanded facility would be 470,000 square feet, almost the size of the Alamodome. Schwartz revealed that San Antonio officials actually courted the NSA, sending trade delegations to Ft. Meade to win the expansion. “The new facility is a potential boon to the local economy since it’s reportedly going to employ around 1,500 people,” Schwartz noted, “but questions remain about whether there will be adequate oversight to prevent civil-rights violations like Uncle Sam’s recent notorious warrantless wiretapping program.” Actually, there's no honest question about that. Schwartz is just politely saying in journalistic kant that, like Salt Lake City, San Antonio expects to profit from the destruction of the Constitution's Bill of Rights. Temporarily, anyway.

Schwartz got a personal dose of the destruction of the Bill of Rights while preparing his story for the San Antonio Current. “Readers are advised not to take any photos unless you care to be detained for at least a 45-minute interrogation by the National Security Agency, as this reporter was,” Schwartz wrote. The security guards asked, but did not demand, that Schwartz destroy photos he had taken of the facility.

They didn't take his camera — this time, that is.

Of course, if the NSA is free to ignore one part of the Bill of Rights, the Fourth Amendment prohibition on searches without court warrants and probable cause, what security can Americans have in preventing the NSA from ignoring the other parts of the Constitution … such as freedom of the press under the First Amendment?

Este tío parece un tele-predicador, ¿tú sabes que la religión no necesita de un Dios? La gente adora cualquier cosa. En India a unos tíos les convencieron de que no existía su dios o dioses y escribieron en un libro que no existian sus dioses, ¿te puedes creer que terminaro adorando y haciendo oraciones AL LIBRO DONDE PONÍA QUE NO HAY DIOSES ...? Igual ejemplo se puede poner con el Republicanismo Cívico de ZP, que ES una religión como otra cualquiera y tiene los mismos objetivos de sometimiento y control de la población ...

Me parece muy bien ... Me encanta Ayn Rand y soy un firme defensor de mí libertad como individuo, pero algo como lo del video ese no lo había visto en mi vida ... ¿Quien es ese pollo? Aaron Ruso ...

Joder que hilo más conspiranoico ...

Medimmune H1N1 Swine Flu Virus - PATENT - 2008

Medimmune patentó el virus del H1N1 en 2008... a estas horas, me siento incapaz de investigar si esto es una trola o no. Lo he visto en este vídeo:



Pero como sea verdad, me dan ganas de estrangular a los joputas de Medimmune, mañana lo investigo un poco...

Por cierto: America, Fredom to Fascism es un peliculón como la copa de un pino, debería verla todo dios para entender el timo de la reserva federal, aunque a estas alturas, me parece que eso ya lo tenemos bastante claro casi todos en este foro. (Por lo menos los que tienen ojos y quieren ver)
