It's standard for everything, every bit of data, everything your TV does to enable your viewing habits and usage to be monitored and recorded without your consent or knowledge.
It's like Google's and cellphones and telephone and internet. you cannot stop them from doing it unless you cut the Internet cord entirely.
The internet is dangerous because it's being used as a feed into your home and life any time you use it.
am I not mistaken that all TVs are vulnerable including Samsung? essentially everything that communicates over the Internet is vulnerable because the Internet is being misused to collect data on and from all citizens. some TV models for example had voice searching and recognition, and all words spoken around the TV were being sent over the internet where intelligence agencies nab it at the fiber optic uplink taps. any files you access or sent were also being intercepted.
the Internet is the problem not the software on our devices or how the data was being handled at the server level (although this is the other problem, because service hosters are misusing data).:)
1. the poll coaches people along falsely telling them surveillance is used to scan for "terrorist threats" when surveillance is used to spy on and target citizens by local law enforcement, prosecutors, FBI, DEA, and other agencies - stalk, harass, abuse, and even build fake legal cases against them. torture, and murders have been widely reported by 'targeted individuals.' 2. the poll did not educate poll participants on surveillance abuses, or the actual methods being used before asking them if they really agreed to it or not. participants are likely obviously they're all being targeted by the system and have no privacy themselves, as if they were living in a jail with a camera and mic system in their call, all phone calls and mail read and bugged.. the public is retarded about the whole topic. 3. the poll was only of 1000 people; this poll number is so small it does not represent anyone's opinion.
when they don't even know the full extent of the surveillance let alone the murders, torture and targeted abuses surveillance is being used for.
most citizens don't even know surveillance is used today to enable the government to scan their homes with interferometry using space capability. read all emails and listen to all phone calls. etc.
the government deployed mass psychological warfare to achieve this goal. that citizens would be fine being surveilled and spied on. government for Christ sake called surveillance only "metadata" when it's actually all content saved that travels over the united states fiber optic backbone cables from emails, to photographs, to text messages, to websites visited, to facebook chats. it's all saved and made available to government by fiber optic upstream duplication.
our government does not use surveillance for criminal investigations or fighting terrorism. it's used to control the population. targetedly kill, stalk, torture, track, harass, and abuse citizens. numerous whistleblowers back it up and state such. the folly public doesn't get that message because the mainstream media refuses to cover the issue and takes their orders from the executive branch and department of defense.
heavy censorship on Wikipedia and edit wars. there's a large body of 'trolls' and for pay shills, and insiders who police Wikipedia to control the information on the site. they're attempting to control the types of information that are on the site and spin it positively for corporations, government, police, and military interests. the site is no good if you're interested in anything factual as such and it's mostly industry propaganda. this is also the fault of the way Wikipedia is set up because the site prefers to use propaganda as sources for information, for example they'll use largely company provided sources for information on mental health drugs and the scientific studies on the subject will be edited out as "conspiracy theory" or not fitting the standard of a "good source."
the whole site is in shambles.
expert information and scientific information is therefore lacking on the site.
one time I decided to try to beef up the articles on mind control and electronic warfare weaponry, citing government articles and psychiatrists who were experts on the issue. because the information I was posting painted the government in a negative light, the information was edited out quickly by troll user who edit wars the pages and is friends with all the administrators. I was quickly banned for attempted to undo his reversals of my edits. a look at the talk pages and logs and I find out dozens of users had been banned and had problem for years with this one troll editor who keeps the pages void of real information and pro-government. he attempts to paint the issue as "not real" or "conspiracy theory" or the product of people's delusions and mental health issues.
nothing you can do about it..
and the issue isn't new. going back to 2010 users attempted to have a page on synthetic telepathy and that year increasing edit wars to remove and censor the information forced Wikipedia to close the page entirely. even though the technology is real and factual, backed by patents and dozens of victims and police officers who've all used it. and now Facebook has announced the technology is coming to facebook eventually, and IBM did predictions in 2011 that it would be coming to consumer grade technology within 5 years.https://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2010/05/451768.html
The internet is not void of dozens upon dozens upon thousands of reports of Wikipedia censoring pages and peoples content being removed.
Wikipedia is the defacto "psychological warfare" weapon. It's very valuable. Governments and companies seek to control the knowledge base of society, and that includes hiding negative information, spinning negatives as positives, and making up positive information. They invest and use Wikipedia to control what information you'll find readily available if you do a Google search. You'll walk away misled on most subjects. Entire sciences can be hidden and kept from the publics views by censoring the site as can trade secrets and things that harm the public.
1. all data over the internet is being saved so they nab the key as it's being uploaded plus any other data communicated with Microsoft transparently as you use the net. ; if they want to gain legal authority to use the snoop'd data they go for a warrant and get it 'lawfully' from Microsoft, parallel constructing how their case was built. even if Microsoft encrypts the signal communications between their server and the end-user, the data is nabbed, and most definitely all of the encryption codes for end-user and Microsoft server software is de-decryptable by NSA because NSA has all of Microsoft's encryption certificates and has broken most encryption. 2. alt method is Microsoft just gives them all the encryption certificates secretly even without a warrant.
This has been explained before. Check out the Whistleblowers Websites on the issue.
this is no joke. the reason why Microsoft is saving the key is to hand to NSA. the key is not safe. encryption has been broken. every bit of data uploaded over the Internet is saved in NSA databases via upstream fiber tapping. the law didn't change that. even metadata is still being saved.
Microsoft is one of NSA's/DOD's biggest contractors. They secretly hand everything over to them. Your data is being hacked and snooped through even if no one tells you about it.
I disagree. We have extreme poverty. Things people actually need costs hundreds to thousands a dollars a month, which they cannot afford, such as regular dental visits, lawyers, tutors, private schools, paid vacations, non-medication based health care, maid service, fully equipped apartment/house, etc.
Those types of things are provided free from the government in Europe.
They have substantially better free services to replace the out of pocket expenses of the same services in the United States.
was that United States poverty actually means extreme poverty where money, education, healthcare, nuturement, homes, cars, transporation, day care, special needs services and all that is completely denied.
and the comparison countries "Germany, UK, Australia,.." are all actually really rich countries with more of a socialism style to their economic systems. In those countries they have completely free healthcare, free college educations, better school systems (although I have no studied each country, I have looked at countries such as Germany which has completely free college education even for people who go there from out of the country, and Finland has a revolutionary system with three teachers per class and 20 student caps, France puts more money into kids and "fixing" life problems, etc).
I grew up in Oregon and as such I was denied all school after the 6th grade, and I had no health insurance and therefore could not see a dentist, psychologist, PCP, or any other type of doctor growing up. Until the year 2011 when Affordable Health Care Act kicked in, there were hundreds of thousands of uninsured children in Oregon.. meaning when they had a health problem, they were denied medical care most of the time.
Oregon just so happens to also have the worst graduation rates.. 70% of disabled kids drop out of school because the services push them out and don't have services for them, and 40% of regular kids drop out.
Compare that to Finland with 95% graduation rate!
In America they also prefer to "drug" kids with medications for mental disorders they don't have, rather than to fix the underlining cause of their problems, which is often times rooted in their homes, poverty, and lack of services and infrastructure for them to succeed in.
Those medications cause IQ drops, autism, brain damage, and prevent learning and fail to actually correct kids/adults problems.
In most of those European countries they also have social housing programs (for example, housing is free in Germany and you also get free basic income, health care, plus education as mentioned before). In America, if you can't afford the sky high rent, you're probably going to be homeless and completely desolate, stressed out wondering the streets or if you're lucky in a bed bug infested ghetto homeless shelter with crap food and dirty insides (they serve people expired food at most of these places).
So the author missed one thing. It does appear the problem is linked to poverty. Because America and those other countries have vastly different systems. Poverty means way different things in America compared to European countries. In America they expect you to "pay for everything out of pocket" but if you cannot do that, you do not get free service drop ins. The rich therefore are the only ones who can afford to properly raise their children in America because they have the money for private schools, private services, tutors, private doctors, private lawyers, leisure, exploration, etc; everyone else suffers and rots. But in Europe, basic services and living needs are free to the poor.
The only way to fix this is to adopt a new United States constitution perhaps based on the one from South Africa, as some US Supreme Court justices indicated was a model replacement for our own. Other countries are already built with better constitutions, as after World War II President Roosevelt sent aids to European/foreign countries and helped build in economic rights into their new constitutions. The United States was to get a new Bill of Rights 2 with economic rights, but when Roosevelt died prematurely, his work was successfully subverted in the United States. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
The problem with the United States is purely it's shitty geared for the wealthy and rich constitution.
We don't even have the right to live in dignity, as other nations have. We have no right to basic income. No right to medica
oh the subject of T-Mobile, they have some shaddy practices. The biggest one is they're marketing their plans as unlimited but they actually don't have unlimited data. For Their $50 dollar plan, they claim to offer unlimited, but you get 1GB and then after that a limited "always-on data" that is severely limited and capped.
The $95 dollar plan is marketed as truly unlimited, but it's actually secretly capped at 23GB and then after that you are limited because everyone else gets first dibs at data over your connection. In theory, if everyone's sucking up data, you would be limited to 128Kbps or less whereas everyone else is getting 9Mbps or higher on the same tower. It's a 'soft cap'. Your priority as a customer ends at 23GB. It's as bad as offering an unlimited connection with 23GB of full speed "LTE."
15 years ago we had competition. every hickdick could get a DSL or T1 line and sell dialup.
there were choice of dozens of ISPs in every town. lots of dial up numbers to choose from, from an endless supply of suppliers. such as AOL, AT&T WorldNet, UUNet, SegaNet, NetZero, FreeWWWeb, FreeInternet, EarthLink, lots of local ones,..
That's just a handful who I was personally a customer of. The companies were forced to compete by offering new sign ups deals of $200 rebates to get people to switch to their company, meaning you could get dial up for practically free even if you had a monthly bill.
The competition ensured that Internet was available at a variety of tiers ranging from free (ad-supported), to $9.95 a month, to $19.95 a month, topping out at about $24.95 a month for AOL.
The internet was almost 100% profit as it is today. But today the FCC under the Republican's rules killed off line sharing back in 2004. There were rules at one point to force cable and DSL providers to open the lines like phone systems were open. DSL and cable lines were just ways of "hiding" the dialup number. You had EarthLink providing Internet over cable, and a multitude of DSL companies offering Internet. In my area we had MegaPath, Speakeasy, and Qwest to choose from. Qwest even offered a $24.95 a month DSL line w/ unlimited internet for $2.99.
Then all that was killed and now internet prices are sky high, there's no competition, and companies keep trying to push up the profits.
According to Huffington Post, Internet costs $1.23 to provide per home over Time Warner cable's systems. But they're charging way more than that, in the range of $50-$100+. And they're looking to add overages and "bandwidth caps" with the sole purpose of pushing profits even higher than 97%+.
We cannot and will never have an open Internet as long as companies own the lines and set the prices and can refuse to invest money in upgrades (the reason we're stuck with DSL and cable, and fiber is nowhere near being offered).
lying is actually a form of psychological warfare. they're seriously doing as they please, baking the record, and hiding everything so the public cannot react or defend itself.
psyops are what are called 'world view warfare' - they attempt to control every aspect of the world as others see it.
no part of wired's claims are substantiated at all. "of the guy went along with our investigation when we called and sounded funny. must mean whatever we print is true."
"Either Wright invented bitcoin, or he’s a brilliant hoaxer who very badly wants us to believe he did."
or wired.com is a fraud out to make money by selling us an article without proof knowing this topic would be click bait, or they secretly want to frame this guy to be the dude for some other type of hoax/profit motive.
remember Newsweek tried this shit, as have plenty of other media conglomerates.
media ain't worth two shits people.
the only way to know for sure if he invented anything is to go into his mind using fMRI of a government satellite interferometry scan and then read his memories. he either has memories of creating bitcoin or he does not. no speculation or going by any persons falsified word.
do you realize that history books could be a reference to any type of article on the internet, whatever type of reference it is, like a time machine, a Wikipedia article, a news article some stupid ass news organization writes, etc?
think about how the history books will be cooked if any of these emoji's are accepted.
"Durex is responsible for the condom emoji, Taco Bell/Pizza Hut/KFC for the Taco emoji, Nestle for the KitKat emoji."
The outcome is set in stone even if the emoji's are rejected and the corporations knew this would happen,
"Durex once suggested a condom emoji which was rejected, Taco Bell/Pizza Hut/KFC suggested a Taco emoji which was rejected, Nestle suggested a KitKat emoji which was rejected..."
alternatively if any of these items do get added one day because of the people in charge of Unicode character selection have made this a corporate game, they'll go
"a condom was added but it's not the first time it was suggested. Durex was the first group to recommend the addition. a Taco was added but believe it or not, Taco Bell, KFC, and Pizza Hut was responsible for the idea decades ago. the new KitKat Unicode character was introduced, after Nestle struggled to have it added for years. thank Unicode for making it difficult. Time to remove control of Unicode from the standards bodies and give it to corporate Big Media, which 6 companies own and control 90% of."
have a condom. that's mind control. nor should there be a taco. that's like trying to get people to think condoms are normal to talk about, use, whatnot and that taco's are a food worth eating and discussing over other foods.
the media blitz from this is what they're also after. just by the fact that these idiot companies made the suggestion to add these emojis, now there will be tons of discussion within the tech related community using the name "taco bell" and "durex" and "nestle and KitKat."
that's mind control. they're getting the free press and putting all these ideas in peoples head. they already won. even if those emoji's don't get put into Unicode.
I went ahead and read the article. This hack works best for making fake cards and stuff at the actual teller, for use in store. The cards themselves have several flaws making it easy to do, apparently without the unique code identifier or the new chip in the newer cards.
If a person changes their account number, they can easily guess the new number, and continue using the account.
Won't work online because thats when they verify other details of the card such as unique code, billing info, and all that.
Use at your own risk because doing this in store will lead to security video, possible finger prints, and other info good to put tou away for along time when caught.
Maybe but probably not. AMEX rarely questions the customer on a dispute and usually sides with the customer.
I even won a dispute for $1300 on a laptop because HP had promised to replace it when it arrived with dead pixels, but then never did so. Got the money back and HP didn't even bother to ask for the laptop back.
And through countless extended warranty claims on hardware, AMEX always pays no issue.
And through a couple of thefts, always reimbursed.
I had a couple of new purchases stolen weeks after purchase, AMEX fully reimbursed the purchase price on each one.

the only way to know for sure if he invented anything is to go into his mind using fMRI of a government satellite interferometry scan and then read his memories. he either has memories of creating bitcoin or he does not. no speculation or going by any persons falsified word.

interferometry will dustify those rocks w/ no need for drills.
why is the military the only one using this type of tech, actually deployed in satellite and over the horizon radar weapons?

do you realize that history books could be a reference to any type of article on the internet, whatever type of reference it is, like a time machine, a Wikipedia article, a news article some stupid ass news organization writes, etc?
derp!
a satellite interferometry scan of your balls even in your home, in violation of Kyllo v United States is why you wear tin foil hats. :)
think about how the history books will be cooked if any of these emoji's are accepted.
"Durex is responsible for the condom emoji, Taco Bell/Pizza Hut/KFC for the Taco emoji, Nestle for the KitKat emoji."
The outcome is set in stone even if the emoji's are rejected and the corporations knew this would happen,
"Durex once suggested a condom emoji which was rejected, Taco Bell/Pizza Hut/KFC suggested a Taco emoji which was rejected, Nestle suggested a KitKat emoji which was rejected..."
alternatively if any of these items do get added one day because of the people in charge of Unicode character selection have made this a corporate game, they'll go
"a condom was added but it's not the first time it was suggested. Durex was the first group to recommend the addition. a Taco was added but believe it or not, Taco Bell, KFC, and Pizza Hut was responsible for the idea decades ago. the new KitKat Unicode character was introduced, after Nestle struggled to have it added for years. thank Unicode for making it difficult. Time to remove control of Unicode from the standards bodies and give it to corporate Big Media, which 6 companies own and control 90% of."

have a condom. that's mind control. nor should there be a taco. that's like trying to get people to think condoms are normal to talk about, use, whatnot and that taco's are a food worth eating and discussing over other foods.
the media blitz from this is what they're also after. just by the fact that these idiot companies made the suggestion to add these emojis, now there will be tons of discussion within the tech related community using the name "taco bell" and "durex" and "nestle and KitKat."
that's mind control. they're getting the free press and putting all these ideas in peoples head. they already won. even if those emoji's don't get put into Unicode.

I went ahead and read the article. This hack works best for making fake cards and stuff at the actual teller, for use in store. The cards themselves have several flaws making it easy to do, apparently without the unique code identifier or the new chip in the newer cards.
If a person changes their account number, they can easily guess the new number, and continue using the account.
Won't work online because thats when they verify other details of the card such as unique code, billing info, and all that.
Use at your own risk because doing this in store will lead to security video, possible finger prints, and other info good to put tou away for along time when caught.
Maybe but probably not. AMEX rarely questions the customer on a dispute and usually sides with the customer.
I even won a dispute for $1300 on a laptop because HP had promised to replace it when it arrived with dead pixels, but then never did so. Got the money back and HP didn't even bother to ask for the laptop back.
And through countless extended warranty claims on hardware, AMEX always pays no issue.
And through a couple of thefts, always reimbursed.
I had a couple of new purchases stolen weeks after purchase, AMEX fully reimbursed the purchase price on each one.
Never have I been dissatisfied with AMEX service.
