Treasure Map: NSA, GCHQ Work On Real-Time "Google Earth" Internet Observation
wabrandsma) writes with the latest accusations about NSA spying activity in Germany.
According to top-secret documents from the NSA and the British agency GCHQ, the intelligence agencies are seeking to map the entire Internet.
Furthermore, every single end device that is connected to the Internet somewhere in the world — every smartphone, tablet and computer — is to be made visible. Such a map doesn't just reveal one treasure. There are millions of them. The breathtaking mission is described in a Treasure Map presentation from the documents of the former intelligence service employee Edward Snowden which SPIEGEL has seen. It instructs analysts to "map the entire Internet — Any device, anywhere, all the time." Treasure Map allows for the creation of an "interactive map of the global Internet" in "near real-time," the document notes. Employees of the so-called "FiveEyes" intelligence agencies from Great Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, which cooperate closely with the American agency NSA, can install and use the program on their own computers. One can imagine it as a kind of Google Earth for global data traffic, a bird's eye view of the planet's digital arteries.

I'm surprised they haven't used pedofiles as an excuse[reason] for this.
It's probably "tied into" every single ISP there is then...
* If so, then I suspect @ least that even TOR users are NOT going to be "proof" to this, nor VPN users either.
(What other method could they use to pull this off otherwise?)
APK
P.S.=> Mere speculation but... any thoughts? apk
The last 4 or 5 major disclosures from Snowden documents have gone unreported in the mainstream US press. Sure, you can find them on some more off the path sites, but the mainstream press has moved on. It's not as important as (from current CNN site): "Is this a spaceship or super mall?", or "5 ways to think yourself well!"
As far as the vast, vast majority of the public is concerned, it's over. Forgotten. Our cultural attention span was exhausted, and nothing happened. The chance of serious change now - like disbanding the organization and arresting those responsible for widespread constitutional violations - is now zero.
And they know it.
Looking at where all data enters and exits the internet (www or the World Wide Wiretap) :)
Wifi, VPN, implanted OS or hardware devices, pubic, private, down to MAC address as expected.
Sorting by Infected hosts or Tor router?

Domestic spying is now "Benign Information Gathering"
Everyone will have all their internet usage examined and your fines will be deducted automaticaly. An email receipt will be sent daily.
Every user's location and identity is known. Violators will be jailed.
Have a nice day, Big Brother is watching you.
Sometimes we must take away a few freedoms to preserve the majority of freedoms.

I hope you are being sarcastic. Otherwise take a trip to Syria and join ISIS so someone can kill you.
Too Much Information (TMI) can be as big a problem as too little information.
With all that information, you can get a false sense of security that you know enough and get bitten.
With all that information, you tend to focus on what you see and not what you don't - you develop tunnel vision.
With all that information, resources that could have been devoted elsewhere are taken up sorting out the trash and the false positives.
Blank spots stay blank. Example - Android phones have had NFC since Gingerbread, so if two operatives want to exchange data (photos of a target, NSA documents, etc), they can do it in person just by using Android Beam or Bump-to-Exchange, without saying a word to each other, just standing in line to pay for a newspaper.
"Transparent" is a shit show that trades on every stereotype going. A man in drag is NOT a transsexual.
Holographic surveillance w/ satellites and radar being going on for some time. w/ full city, home, body, brain, object scans, so nothing is secret or hideable.

Ok say they get into every ISP's network...
how are they going to monitor every device? pings? imagine the traffic overhead for that?
will the NSA have to pay to be in the "fast-lane"?
what about Dynamic IP's ? how often will they monitor those changes?
It's not a typo if you understood the meaning!
With the possibility that dozens of individuals have full access to your computing device, can anyone actually get in trouble for what is on their computing device anymore?
A real world example:
If a dozen people had been shown to have been in your house without your permission, could you be held responsible for anything that is left behind?
I would think prosecutors are getting very worried about this being brought up by defense attorneys.

That's not true, he's not a pedofile. He might download a pedo-file, if he's a pedophile. Phile =lover of, so audiophiles love audio.
I can't argue with the rest of your post.
I take back those lies I just said about you. I'm projecting my own freakishness again.
What you mention is WHY they have you register any modems you buy that aren't theirs into THEIR network (for tracking purposes).
APK
P.S.=> This is WHY I noted ISP's in my post you replied to - they'd most likely HAVE to be involved, as the MAC address, though "spoofable" is afaik, FAIRLY USELESS TO SPOOF (since it'd be unrecognized by the ISP network) - & what does *everything* online have, besides an IP address? MAC Addresses... apk
THAT is why I noted that ISP's would most likely *have* to be "tied into" this system - you can "spoof" IP addy's *all day*, but *try* that on a MAC Address on your router - see how far you get.
APK
P.S.=> It'd be the *only* way I could see doing this on their end, to get a "picture" of *every* single device connected online - going thru ISPs, & what makes you "unique" there? MAC address on your modem (not your IP address)... apk
Prove my points on hosts wrong: My FREE hosts program adds speed, security, reliability, & more, by doing more, more efficiently vs. addons + fixes DNS' issues:
APK Hosts File Engine 9.0++ 32/64-bit:
http://start64.com/index.php?o...
---
A.) Hosts do more than:
1.) AdBlock ("souled-out" 2 Google/Crippled by default http://techcrunch.com/2013/07/... )
2.) Ghostery (Advertiser owned) - "Fox guards henhouse" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G...
3.) Request Policy -> http://yro.slashdot.org/commen...
B.) Hosts add reliability vs. downed/redirected dns (& overcome site redirects e.g. /. beta).
C.) Hosts secure vs. malicious domains too -> http://tech.slashdot.org/comme... w/ less "moving parts" complexity
D.) Hosts files yield more:
1.) Speed (adblock & hardcodes fav sites - faster than remote dns)
2.) Security (vs. malicious domains serving malcontent + block spam/phish & trackers)
3.) Reliability (vs. downed or Kaminsky redirect vulnerable dns, 99% = unpatched vs. it & worst @ isp level + weak vs DGA, & Fastflux + dynDNS botnets)
4.) Anonymity (vs. dns request logs + dnsbl's).
---
* Hosts do more w/ less (1 file) @ faster levels (ring 0) vs redundant inefficient addons (slowing slower ring 3 browsers) via filtering 4 the IP stack (coded in C, loads w/ os, & 1st net resolver queried w\ 45++ yrs.of optimization).
* Addons = more complex + slow browsers in messagepassing (use a few concurrently & see) & are nullified by native browser methods - It's how Clarityray's destroying Adblock.
* Addons slowup slower usermode browsers layering on more - & bloat RAM consumption + excessive cpu use too (4++gb extra in FireFox https://blog.mozilla.org/nneth...)
Instead, work w/ a native kernelmode part - hosts (An integrated part of the ip stack)
APK
P.S.=> Go on Sockpuppeteer - just so I can make you look like an even BIGGER FOOL than you already are, being known as a multiple sockpuppet using troll on /., ok?
...apk
You *might* want to read my original post a WEE BIT CLOSER, & this one too http://news.slashdot.org/comme...
APK
P.S.=> All it has to do is what it's used for: Tracking & insertion into an ISP network - you can "spoof" ip addy's all day long, fairly easily via various numerous methods too, but what keeps YOU identifiable (& working) on an ISP network? Your MAC Addy - you 'spoof' that? Good luck using their network afaik - thus, you'd *have* to assume the ONLY WAY (that I can think of @ least) to get a "picture of every device online", would be via ISP's & that MAC address on your MODEM registered with them... apk
Sorry to disappoint you sockpuppeteer (tomhudson=barbarahudson=barbara, not barbie) - & since you shot your piehole off again, cyclops?
See you here -> http://news.slashdot.org/comme...
APK
P.S.=> Just to watch you make a FOOL of yourself, yet again (& I can watch it with BOTH eyes, unlike a cyclops like yourself, lol)... apk
These 2 accounts yours too? http://slashdot.org/~tomhudson... + http://slashdot.org/~Barbara%2...
Sure they are!
So, don't talk about "multiple account usage", you 1 eyed monstrosity cyclops... ok? You're PROJECTING, yet again... it's hilarious!
* This entire SITE's well onto your bullshit you disfigured diseased freak... it's why you LEFT in May 2012 once I exposed the fact you sockpuppeteer here like mad.
By the way - there IS only 1 "anonymous coward" account, stupid... lol, *NOT* "multiple ones", for Pete's sake!
APK
P.S.=> That diabetes (fatass) seriously damaged your mind, didn't it? I mean, seriously - you're SO damn stupid, you project your own bullshit here, constantly! It's pitiful... Almost as pitiful as watching you *try* to disprove my points on hosts files (which you can't & never will be able to either) -> http://news.slashdot.org/comme... ... apk
The *only* way I can think of, BY DEVICE, too -> http://news.slashdot.org/comme...
I.E.-> The ONLY way to do this, to get a "picture of EVERY device online", would BE thru every ISP thus...
Afaik? That WOULD be to use your Modem's MAC Address (you can't "spoof" it afaik, & have your modem work on an ISP till you register it with them, thus, giving them a "picture" of YOUR connection, & *ANY* of their clients' as well)
APK
P.S.=> If I am off/wrong? I'll take criticism, but I hit on "every ISP" as you have (& they are subject to federal + state laws etc.)... apk
For being a 1 eyed cyclops disfigured diseased monstrosity barbarahudson=tomhudson=barbara, not barbie sockpuppeteer I am telling more lies about you apk. I am a pitiful freak you drummed out of here in May 2012 catching me using multiple sockpuppet accounts and my sick brain keeps up my psychotic episodes. Taking my meds has helped me stop doing it though, thank goodness I just took them.
Do you really keep all these 3 sockpuppets here on slashdot http://news.slashdot.org/comme... ? How many more do you have?
Why're you running from apk's fair challenge to you here then http://news.slashdot.org/comme...? We've already seen how many sockpuppet accounts you keep here too.
With NATs, MAC randomization, WiFi hotspots, user agent spoofing, VPNs, TOR, it seems difficult if not impossible to fingerprint the devices that belong to those who strive to remain hidden.

It's a quote any 'terrorist' could make. It's a quote that would make out anyone who made it a 'terrorist'. Could you be?
Good to know at least one federal agency seems to know what it means to execute their mandate.
While I am sure this is a project that will earn millions of dollars for some companies and promotions for individuals, I am not sure how successful you can be at mapping everything. I would imagine more than half of the Internet is hidden behind various NAT boxes. Even with the help of folks like Comcast, CenturyLink, Verizon, AT&T, and the rest of our friends who might help the NSA and GCHQ; we still have businesses, colleges and universities, and most households with most of their computers hidden behind NAT. Maybe when IPv6 becomes ubiquitous it might be possible. I agree with a earlier post too much data, no enough content.

You'd *HAVE* to be 'tied in' to ISP's somehow... which is WHY that would work by MAC Addy (vs. IP address - you can 'spoof' IP addy's all day long, easily, by many methods in fact... try it with a MAC address on your modem AND STILL HAVE IT WORK (good luck))... apk
Now, nobody can claim that they will not get attacked. There is this global, ethically-challenged attacker that does sabotage and industrial espionage and leaves targets vulnerable to other attackers as well because they are not perfect (far from it, they just have tons of money). So in the long run, this might do wonders for IT security in general, even if that revolution may come from countries not too friendly towards the US. Of course, the British run with the big bully, but everybody else is getting more and more wary of that cancer growing in northern America.
Most ACs are not even worth the keystrokes to insult them. Be generically insulted by this and ignored otherwise.
Not too well. It seems they have stopped zero terrorists so far. But if you think that their mandate is actually spying on ordinary people and economic espionage, then yes.

The guise of national security ...
If the "five eyes" limit their surveillance on the people of their respective five countries the 'national security" argument could still be applied
But what TFA is describing has gone way beyond their respective national border. Their aim is to extend their authoritarian control over THE ENTIRE WORLD and this is the one thing that the whole world must reject
Not since the dawn of time _any_ one entity has the control of the entire planet - As a comparison, even the largest empire ever was, the British Empire, in its peak, controlled less than 25% of the world
The worldwide hegemony must be defeated, dismantled and destroyed, or our future, the future of the Human Race, will forever be shrouded under a thick layer of very dark cloud

Sure, let us begin by taking away the government's freedom to legislate such insanity. If the system is rigged and broken, break the system.
This quote from Thomas Jefferson seems apt :-
"God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. ...And what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to the facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure."

It seems like mesh network initiatives like this haven't been covered extensively on Slashdot, though I'm curious as to anyone's take on what protocols like CJDNS and the experimental hyperbora network will be able to do to stop this... of course, the caveat being that we would have to assume that the networks were bigger than they are now, more accessible.

This IS about devices. What do you register w/ your ISP? Your cable/dsl modem. It's no "big stretch of the imagination" to wonder about when CISCO was recently caught inserting "backdoors" into their router/modem products with the NSA (or even bugs in router/modem firmware they KNOW about how to abuse) to do this.
So "spoof" your IP address all day long - doesn't matter: It's the MAC Address of your cable or dsl modem that tracks you... *try* to "spoof" that, & see how well you operate @ your ISP afterwards.

Can adblock do the following things (that custom hosts files can):
1.) Secure you vs. known malicious sites/servers
2.) Secure you vs. downed DNS servers aiding reliability
3.) Secure you vs. DNS redirect poisoned dns servers
4.) Protect you vs. fastflux using botnet attacks and stop their communications back to their C&C servers
5.) Protect you vs. dynamic dns using botnet attacks and stop their communications back to their C&C servers
6.) Protect you vs. domain generation algorithm using botnet attacks and stop their communications back to their C&C servers
7.) Speed you up for websurfing not only by adblocking but also hardcoding favorite sites
8.) Get you past a dnsbl you may not agree with
9.) Keep you off dns request logs
10.) Do all of those things and block ads (better than adblock) more efficiently in cpu cycles and memory usage
11.) Work on ANY webbound application (think stand-alone email programs, for example).
12.) Give you direct, easily notepad/texteditor controlled data for all of the above
13.) Block out trackers
14.) Block spam mails sources
15.) Block phishing mails sources

So, *IF* you feel like doing things LESS efficiently as well -> https://blog.mozilla.org/nneth... ontop of doing less than hosts do (by far) with more complexity + from a slower mode of operations (usermode with more messagepassing overheads vs. hosts in kernelmode, also starting up w/ the IP stack itself, before REDUNDANT inefficient addons even BEGIN to operate, & as the 1st resolver queried by the OS as well)?

W. Palant wrote me by email 1st saying "hosts are a shitty solution" to which I replied:
"Show us adblock can do more for added speed, security, reliability, & anonymity than hosts can, + that adblock does it more efficiently than hosts"
Which on my latter 'point-in-challenge' on efficiency AdBlock's proven by research to be MASSIVELY inefficient -> https://blog.mozilla.org/nneth... & adblock does FAR less than hosts (especially crippled by default).
I sent Wladimir Palant that challenge in response to his statement from 2 different email addresses I use!
Result = Still no answer from him in regard to my challenge put to him to this very day MONTHS later - that tell you anything? It did me!
He knows his addon is less efficient & features laden by FAR vs. hosts - Wladimir Palant RAN like a scared rabbit!
ClarityRay's also DESTROYING AdBlock - via native browser methods to DUMP what addons you use (it can't DO THAT to hosts files).
I only tell it how it is on hosts' superiority vs. AdBlock - Funny part is, Wladimir Palant running does too!

P.S.=> Bottom-Line: Hosts = a superior solution that also fixes DNS redirect security issues (vs. browser addons & their inefficiencies + messagepassing overheads as well as myriad lack of abilities hosts have from 1 file that's part of the IP stack itself - faster, more efficient, & less redundant as well, since TCP/IP has 45++ yrs. of refinement & optimization in it, & runs in a higher CPU serviced ring of privelege & operations in kernelmode vs. slower usermode layering over browsers slowing them more, & hosts = 1st resolver queried by the OS itself also)... apk
"THOR SCHMUCK"? LMAO, he refused to answer my points there when I replied (on PING.EXE, SPYBOT SEARCH & DESTROY, which violate CA's 21 point test via ping of death or altering HOSTS files, & MORE) on his own website... made him look QUITE poorly, easily. With facts, as is my usual style.
Also, my single app (of 40 freeware/sharewares I did years ago, some ending up as commercially sold products or code in them) was lowered to ZERO THREAT LEVELS after I passed all 21 questions for that @ CA no less!
Heck - that SINGLE APP of 40 or so I have written online to date?
It's NOT EVEN SCRIPTABLE FOR ATTACK - whereas by way of comparison? Others are creating apps like it also, in 64 bit no less, per this example thereof:
http://www.start64.com/index.p...
That one is though...
Does CA list it? Oh, wait a second - CA had to SELL OFF THEIR PC TOOLS DIVISION (it sucked is why, lol):
http://www.updatapartners.com/...
Thor SCHMUCK (degreeless wannabe that he is in the computer sciences) is, afaik, the one that submitted my app to CA as a malware!
(It was not intended by myself for that kind of use, I wrote it in good faith for a forums guy that wanted a way to launch OLD Apache server for Windows like a service, invisibly, & since that's only 1-2 lines of code to do? I did! It's not scriptable for attack though, period (no argc/argv code in it is why)).
CA, now there's a story. Ask Computer Associates about their being caught in a millions of dollars financial/accounting scam, here:
http://www.associatedcontent.c...
Real reputable company, eh?
In fact, I passed every single one of the 21 questions for removal of my ware from their site, & all they ended up doing was lowering it down to a "zero threat level"...
I'm not too concerned about it, because they also do it to others (along with other Antivirus/Antispyware companies, and we all know how "effective" those are, especially lately vs. today's "blended threats").
In fact? I am actually in GOOD COMPANY on that account as others have had it happen to they as well!
Ask Dr. Mark Russinovich of Microsoft or Nir Softer of NIRSOFT if they've ever had their numerous apps libeled along with themselves in the same manner... (answer = they have, so I suppose I am in "good company" here, eh?)
Thor Schrock, lol, another "credible expert" (NOT): That guy doesn't even have a CSC degree or even a single A+ type certification to his name.
All I can say to and about Thor SCHMUCK, is this: GOD BLESS TY TYMKOVICH (LOL, run that by him, it ought to be good for a laugh... the fool got wickedly SUCKERED by him to the tune of $5,500)...

APK
P.S.=> So, what ISP is it you use that allows that? Is it a cablemodem network?? See, somehow, I *DOUBT* they'd let you do that - reason I state that is simple: I had to register a cablemodem I bought when I had a TimeWarner cable internet account & yes, they did that by MAC Address (for insertion into their networks - as well as tracking)... apk
I used to use them, and *IF* you buy a new cablemodem of your own vs. theirs? You *MUST* register it with them (or you won't work right).
APK
P.S.=> Yes, that "registration" is done by MAC Address ("Gee, I wonder why?" NOT - it's so they KNOW who you are, @ all times, & changing/resetting things on that modem to for instance, get a new IP address, means SQUAT to them (that's not easy to do on THEIR network either: It, however, *IS* on others & less troublesome than what YOU are claiming to have done) - it's ALL MAC ADDY based for their purposes, tracking YOUR account)... apk
What takes your freedom away is not surveillance, it's not even the police, it's the law. Surveillance and the police are just tools, they're not the source of the problem. If you want to fight for your freedom, fight the source of the problem.
The law and the tools enforcing the law are parts of the same whole. Neither can co-exist without the other. A law which is not enforced is just a meaningless scribble. A policeman without the authority granted by the law is just a hired gun. Conducting surveillance without legal authority is being a peeping tom.
Fighting the tools is just as important as fighting the source. The tools are what enables the unjust laws. The Prohibition was ultimately ineffective because the masses decided to ignore the law.

My FREE hosts program adds speed, security, reliability, & more, by doing more, more efficiently vs. addons + fixes DNS' issues:
APK Hosts File Engine 9.0++ 32/64-bit:
http://start64.com/index.php?o...
---
A.) Hosts do more than:
1.) AdBlock ("souled-out" 2 Google/Crippled by default http://techcrunch.com/2013/07/... )
2.) Ghostery (Advertiser owned) - "Fox guards henhouse" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G...
3.) Request Policy -> http://yro.slashdot.org/commen...
B.) Hosts add reliability vs. downed/redirected dns (& overcome site redirects e.g. /. beta).
C.) Hosts secure vs. malicious domains too -> http://tech.slashdot.org/comme... w/ less "moving parts" complexity
D.) Hosts files yield more:
1.) Speed (adblock & hardcodes fav sites - faster than remote dns)
2.) Security (vs. malicious domains serving malcontent + block spam/phish & trackers)
3.) Reliability (vs. downed or Kaminsky redirect vulnerable dns, 99% = unpatched vs. it & worst @ isp level + weak vs DGA, & Fastflux + dynDNS botnets)
4.) Anonymity (vs. dns request logs + dnsbl's).
---
* Hosts do more w/ less (1 file) @ faster levels (ring 0) vs redundant inefficient addons (slowing slower ring 3 browsers) via filtering 4 the IP stack (coded in C, loads w/ os, & 1st net resolver queried w\ 45++ yrs.of optimization).
* Addons = more complex + slow browsers in messagepassing (use a few concurrently & see) & are nullified by native browser methods - It's how Clarityray's destroying Adblock.
* Addons slowup slower usermode browsers layering on more - & bloat RAM consumption + excessive cpu use too (4++gb extra in FireFox https://blog.mozilla.org/nneth...)

If the goal was genuinely security you would be right. Call me a CT, but by now i think the goal is not prevention in itself but rather reaction/punishment : if anybody become "relevant" you then have all the info already ready and can ass rape their privacy and their life at a button press. Think of this : the old guard politician and spook will have now *ALL* information they wish about whom the new whipper snapper rising politician meets or any dirt they want on somebody or pile on crime if they want somebody gone.
That is the true benefit of the massive surveillance. Crime prevention is just some sugarcoating to fool average citizen, especially since the average citizen has no understanding that violent crime is dropping and terrorism is probably not as deadly to them as taking a bath.

Can adblock do the following things (that custom hosts files can):
1.) Secure you vs. known malicious sites/servers
2.) Secure you vs. downed DNS servers aiding reliability
3.) Secure you vs. DNS redirect poisoned dns servers
4.) Protect you vs. fastflux using botnet attacks and stop their communications back to their C&C servers
5.) Protect you vs. dynamic dns using botnet attacks and stop their communications back to their C&C servers
6.) Protect you vs. domain generation algorithm using botnet attacks and stop their communications back to their C&C servers
7.) Speed you up for websurfing not only by adblocking but also hardcoding favorite sites
8.) Get you past a dnsbl you may not agree with
9.) Keep you off dns request logs
10.) Do all of those things and block ads (better than adblock) more efficiently in cpu cycles and memory usage
11.) Work on ANY webbound application (think stand-alone email programs, for example).
12.) Give you direct, easily notepad/texteditor controlled data for all of the above
13.) Block out trackers
14.) Block spam mails sources
15.) Block phishing mails sources

And to really mess with his head, reply anonymously to your anonymous post, disagreeing with your first anon post (extra points if you claim in the second post that you're him - that REALLY sets him off)." - by tomhudson (43916) barbara.hudson@ ... a - h u dson.com on Saturday April 16, 2011 @01:38PM (#35841122) Journal
Gosh - TomHudson, look @ that email address on that post (BarbaraHudson, anyone?), 1st of all - Secondly:
So - Isn't that *EXACTLY* what you're doing here with all the AC posts libeling me calling me a pedo, which I am NOT?
Sure is, see below:
---
BarbaraHudson by AC #1 calling me a pedo -> http://news.slashdot.org/comme...
BarbaraHudson by AC #2 disagreeing calling me a pedo -> http://news.slashdot.org/comme...
---
First stating I am, & then NOT, via ac posts??
I don't *think* you "GET IT", do you??? I've got YOU, completely 'clocked' cyclops... & YOUR OWN WORDS DO YOU IN, every time... lol!
QUESTION: I've read you are a transtesticle? Are you?? It would explain a LOT about you, lol... freak.
APK
P.S.=> You're a pitiful little transparent stooge of a sockpuppeteer + ac troller, BarbaraHudson = http://slashdot.org/~tomhudson... AND http://slashdot.org/~Barbara%2...
... apk
Secondly, you ARE, apparently by your own admission, a freak transtesticle who likes to incite an ORGANIZED CONSPIRACY OF LIBEL vs. myself (proven by YOUR OWN WORDS on "how to troll the host file guy" (me)) -> http://news.slashdot.org/comme...
That's criminal you know... then again, you're TOO "whacked in the head" to care, apparently.
Barb - additionally:
I don't USE a "registered 'luser'" account here (I did one time in 2005 to talk to Mr. John Carmack, a technical hero of mine, on hardware requirements for Quake III iirc, & never used it, EVER, again)... so what's your point there?
HOWEVER:
WE DO KNOW WHO USES MULTIPLE SOCKPUPPET ACCOUNTS HERE ON /. THOUGH, now don't we? See below... you FAIL again, lying twisted freak troll.
APK
P.S.=> Barb you He/She-Shim (lol, that's what I am understanding about you being a transtesticle @ this point too, what a nutjob/twisted FREAK): YOU, however, ARE KNOWN to have multiple registered accounts here too, or are THESE NOT YOUR ALTERNATE ACCOUNTS ON SLASHDOT (active @ same time - so you could mod yourself up, & opponenents you can't get the best of DOWN with as you've done to me all thru this exchange, only to FAIL AGAIN as usual on YOUR part, lol) -> BarbaraHudson = http://slashdot.org/~tomhudson... AND http://slashdot.org/~Barbara%2...
Actually, no one (outside the agency) knows what the NSA's mandate really is. Their charter was signed in secret by Truman and classified. The Senate Intelligence Committee had to beg and plead to eventually be allowed to see it.
We don't have a state-run media we have a media-run state.
It's all here on both DOCSIS docs backing apk + hosts files facts you can't prove wrong of his http://news.slashdot.org/comme...
Are you really a transtesticle? I read you are here (you said it) http://slashdot.org/comments.p... and seeing you keep a TomHudson sockpuppet account http://slashdot.org/~tomhudson... and this other of your many sockpuppets on slashdot too http://slashdot.org/~Barbara%2... also makes me believe you may be. Are you? I can see you saying you're handicapped if you cut off your OWN package like that (lol). You even said it again but to verify it, answer the question (this is hilarious and unbelievable but it explains much about you).
Don't you have any balls? I read you literally cut them off http://slashdot.org/comments.p... and you can't prove the person wrong on hosts http://news.slashdot.org/comme... whom you stalked online by multiple registered accounts here as well as by ac posts which your own words caught you doing inciting AN ORGANIZED CONSIPIRACY OF LIBEL directed his way vs. him http://news.slashdot.org/comme...
Calling apk a pedo and asking others join you in an organized conspiracy of LIBEL too http://news.slashdot.org/comme... ?
Do you seriously think they cannot "look through" your crappy DSL router and through those other 2100 million crapware DSL routers and Cable modems ?
If yes, I have an Eiffel Tower for sale - just for you.
By proof of his own massive stupidity 2x (on hosts + DOCSIS facts) http://news.slashdot.org/comme... LOL!
Hint: it works by subverting the R&D teams of the router makers. And probably leadership of the hw makers knowingly cooperate with this activity. If there is too much security in some product, just hire a mediocre guy and order him to "add some important feature".
The elite guys at NSA will then find their way into your 192.* subnet and ALL you have attached to it.
If you have a Checkpoint(TM) firewall, then you have the TIGER (unit 8200 of I.D.F.) guarding the henhouse. Look it up.
Why can't you validly prove them so here http://news.slashdot.org/comme... ?
I think it has been shown that they lack the technical knowledge to do the kind of science fiction hacks the media all gets in a tizzy about. They have show time and time again, that they do not need any such hacks anyway, as they can simply force companies to comply with handing over information by law.
I mean why spend time developing the super widget to spy on everyone, when you can coerce any company they owns the applications, hardware, or infrastructure to do your bidding for you. Heck they will build it for you should you submit enough "information requests". Best part of the arrangement is in many cases there is a charge back to the company that can actually make money providing the information, using your own tax dollars to pay for it! Win-WIn.
I *tried* to point that out (along with others like sexconker seconding me) until that literally transsexual cyclopic monstrosity BarbaraHudson showed up downmodding me with her many sockpuppets we all know she has, from here downwards http://news.slashdot.org/comme...
You can't get a spoofed MAC addy to work on a network like TimeWarner on the same cablemodem (put it this way - TRY to get a NEW CABLEMODEM of your own to work, MINUS registering it with them... it's "no dice" & what MAC addy's are for mainly - tracking/accounting).
APK
P.S.=> JC, for the MOST part (don't know why), I don't *mind* you (even though you masqueraded as me before & got caught) but, lol... finding out BarbHudson (your pal) is a FOR REAL transexual, from her OWN mouth admitting it? WoW (yes, it's ALL in that exchange above - blows the mind, but - makes sense to explain her stalking me like the psycho he/she ("shim"), truly obviously is) - I mean, lol, COME ON MAN: What kind of MAN cuts his OWN PACKAGE OFF, for Pete's sake? I'll tell you - a sicko freak that is NOT normal is who... apk
Why's your post history show you stalk, harass, and constantly shoot your mouth off about apk for then? This new account shows you started up with him almost as soon as you started it. Is it since he's made you look so stupid when you said you proved his hosts file 'crapola' as you called it, wrong, when you never once have? Too bad he made you look stupid and your own twisted transsexual hormonally imbalanced clearly insane obsessed limited brain isn't reacting well to it, freak.

Hey fuckwit:
I'm the one who posted exactly two (this is the third) posts to this thread: the one you're responding to here, where I called you a fuckwit and a pedofile, and the one about shooting fish in a Dixie cup. Believe what you will, I'm not Tom/Barbara.
You're fucking crazy. The other voices in your head are fucking crazy, too. You're paranoid and delusional. You need medication and possibly, confinement.
I know you'll see and respond to this, because you're fucking crazy.
See you next time, Kowalski.
