From: tchow on 18 Apr 2008 22:04 especially since it is now brought together in this one section. o Part 2: On Monitoring and Being Monitored In this section, I describe the capabilities of ECHELON keyword monitoring. A detailed example --- how to use keywords to pick out conversations of interest --- is given. I also put forth a case of what it means to be monitored heavily by the government. o Part 3: 1984 Means a Constant State of War The politics of war, and the Orwellian tactics employed by by the U.S. Government to control its citizens. o Part 4: Why unlimited cryptography must be legislated NOW In additional to the reasons given in the previous sections, the 'debate' reasons constantly given by the government are reviewed and debunked. And our nation's experts say it will hurt security. The GAO says the same thing. o Part 5: There is no part five. o Part 6: Louis Freeh & The Creeping Police State Basically, Louis Freeh is the anti-Christ leading us to Hell. National ID cards are effectively being implemented without needing to issue cards. The U.S. Government is trying to monitor all phone calls and banking

From: Risto Lankinen on 18 Apr 2008 21:26 from everyone. Bags were searched. It's the 1990s now. The harassment was publicized by 2600, and a reporter talked to the head of the mall's security: he let slip that the Secret Service ordered them to harass 2600's lawful peaceful public meeting. That was definitely news. The mall security manager then denied what he said about Secret Service ordering the harassment: luckily the reporter recorded his conversation. CPSR [Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility] and Marc Rotenberg of EPIC [Electronic Privacy Information Center] began FOIA [U.S. Freedom of Information Act] proceedings to find out about this incident. The case raises significant issues of freedom of speech and assembly, privacy and government accountability. In response to an FOIA asking why this happened, the Secret Service responded: "We are sure no one knows why we had the meeting disrupted". They have made a mockery of FOIA. This mockery of FOIA is still being litigated by EPIC. An intentional illegal government surveillance program...it just never stops. Marc Rotenberg has gotten the Secret Service to admit in court that this was done to "investigate hacking into a company's telephone switch." Sinc

More bizarre distortions in our social fabric due to Zero Tolerance: 6/10/97 MSNBC: California: a ten-year-old girl who reported a classmate for having a joint was also suspended by the principal, under the school's Zero Tolerance for drugs policy. Her offense: handling the joint to see if the other student was kidding her before reporting the other student. The principal said "too bad, that's what 'Zero Tolerance' means". The little girl and her mother are shocked. [I am not making these up!!!!!] 6/18/97 NBC News Channel 4 NYC: A career teacher is forced to resign because she thought her student was kidding about having a baggie of pot. Students and parents are stunned. The teacher said she believed her students had better sense than that, and since she inspected it and it smelled like oregano she was sure they were kidding her. Students and their parents protest, the school board asks her back, but she says no, she is too disgusted at her treatment. Zero Tolerance victims, falling into the abys |
