(39,909 posts)...should I or anyone become a Person of Interest to the Rich & Powerful,
and use the data they have recorded to put together a log of my, or anyone else's travels,
and find out who and where our supporters or friends are.
THIS information, combined with the tracking data from phone calls
and reports from other sources can AND WILL be used to compile a fairly thorough log that WILL be used to attack ANYBODY they wish to discredit, disappear, punish, Teach a Lesson either in the courts, or through other means common to other Authoritarian Surveillance/Security States.
So YES. We ARE being watched, followed, AND our travels recorded for future reference.
Thank gawd my fathers and forefathers had the sense to protect ME from this kind of government over reach.
It is really sad that you are willing to throw this away for our children.
We have already ruined the Environment for them,
and left them THIS that our Party leadership calls a "Recovery".

These things ^ do NOT happen by accident.
They take careful planning, preparation, marketing, buying the right politicians, message control, and the marginalization of any opposition.
In one sense, you are being smart.
The 1% is going to need all the Surveillance/Security Powers of Modern Police State to keep the New Generation in line when they find out what we how badly we have screwed them.
Again, I am STUNNED to find a anyone on this site supporting this.
You have NO credible position beyond giving the Government everything it wants to control the 99%.
Is there a line you will not cross?
