Watching The Watchers Watching You, Continued.

A reader writes:"After a SF Weekly column on DARPA's TIA, attention has turned to the Poindexter Family house. Using legal/public means groups are finding and publishing Alan's phone numbers, address, etc."Those with access to DMV and criminal records databases, credit card records, telephone bills, tax records, birth and death and marriage records, medical records, and similar personally identifiable databases could combine their information publicly to assist in the demonstration." Some seem to trust in TIA's benevolence, but I believe otherwise. Perhaps it is already too late? At least I can rest assured HumanID isn't operational. Yet. "

Here's my contribution to TIA:

President of the U.S. George W. Bush Arrest record #1.

President of the U.S. George W. Bush Arrest record #2.

Vice President of the U.S. Dick Cheney Arrest record #1.

Vice President of the U.S. Dick Cheney Arrest record #2.

Total Information Awareness is not that, it is Total Information Control. When we have true awareness, everyone will know these facts:

1. George W. Bush is not mentally suitable to be a leader of any kind. There is no evidence that he has ever thought deeply about anything in his life. He has been arrested 3 times. Who do you know who has been arrested 3 times who wasn't taking part in protest demonstrations?
2. Dick Cheney is not mentally suitable to be a leader of any kind. According to an acquaintance of mine who was once in the same social circle as Cheney, he has a history of womanizing and drinking. Dick Cheney is a very sick man; he has had a quadruple heart bypass; he should be letting his mind work on the malfunctions of his body, and avoiding other efforts.
3. Many Republicans are not members of a political party, they are members of a corruption organization. They only want to sell the government to whatever corrupt influence will give the most money.
4. The U.S. government already operates the biggest surveillance system the world has ever known. The U.S. government's NSA, FBI, and CIA departments spy on anyone in any country, and arrange the death of anyone they want, secretly.
5. The secret agencies of the U.S. government are, at present, the most violent force in the world. They U.S. government has invaded 14 countries and killed more than 3,000,000 million people in the last 33 years. In an article, What should be the Response to Violence?, I collected some links and explanation about this.

About Time

That people became aware of just how much information there is out there on them.

In the past I've decried how much of my life was getting profiled for the sake of direct marketers via credit card transactions, magazine subscriptions and frequent buyer cards.

Nobody cared. In fact, they still don't care for the most part.

It's only now, that the recipient of the information is the government instead of various corporations that people are starting to get slightly concerned.

But it's just the same old thing.

I hope that if martial law is declared as part of some perceived emergency and elections are "temporarily suspended" that people have properly feathered their profiles to look innocuous so they don't get visited by an anti-terrorism task force investigator.
