* The federal government's goal is to BRING RANDOM PIECES OF DATA

Wow. All federal agencies will be linked together in a vast intelligence
network. Handheld fingerprint devices will be deployed. Obviously.

They are working around the limitations Congress wanted on NCIC 2000.

The Thought Police had testified in court against Ed Cummings.


The judge rules on whether Ed is guilty of probation violation:

That's an overt use. Worse than that:

They can insidiously enter your life: Qubilah Shabazz was seduced.
Like Bill Murray elaborately seducing Andie MacDowell in 'Groundhog Day'
they can enter your life in an almost unconscious manner. Informants
manage to connect to criminals by running into them in the right place,
saying the right things.

It's the 1990s now:
Only, as we have seen, informants connecting to criminals means the FBI
targeting Randy Weaver WHO HAD NO CRIMINAL RECORD for blackmail. Anyone
can be made a criminal in the monitoring net. Or seduced into a "crime",
like Qubilah Shabazz. Without you realizing it, the person you met was
taking advantage of knowing all your most passionate likes and dislikes.

It is INSANE to design our systems for government monitoring.
