One sure way to get on the list - read the constitution, and believe in what you read.

"In addition, the NSA can also later search the communications of those it has inadvertently caught in its Prism dragnet, a tactic some have called a ” backdoor” search. It’s not clear if similar backdoors exist for other types of data such as IP addresses."

There's the rub. When Obama says they are not snooping on everyone's digital activity he's being very disingenuous. What they are doing is recording all digital activity and storing it in a database. Then if a certain person or goup appears on the radar they can search this database along with the banking, medical and commercial transaction (debit/credit card) databases to lean everyting they could want to know about that person or group and their activities.

If you’ve posted on FR you are probably on the list.

“your computer’s IP address”
A computer does not have an IP address. At any given moment, while it is connected to the internet, there is an IP address by which your computer can be addressed. That IP address can vary from time to time. Some ISP’s allocate a “fixed” IP address. Even that can change, if you change ISP’s.
So, what good does it do the kgb to “scoop up your computer’s IP address”?

Answer?

What about ways to get off or stay off the NSA watch list?

Working for the IRS comes to mind... the higher up your responsibility, the more you can stay out of the NSA’s way.

The fascists already have rendered encryption useless. They have demanded and obtained, illegally, a way to read in the clear.

The MAC address can also be scooped up, and that is unique for every PC.

If the bits make it to your PC, they can be traced. It’s just a matter of how diligent and resourceful the ones doing the tracking are.

It doesn’t matter how many proxy servers you go through, again, if the bits make it to your PC, then your PC can be traced.

According to a memo from Osama Obama's DHS that department considers veterans and those with Republican bumper stickers on their cars...among many others...to be potential domestic terrorists.So I just assume that I'm on every government watchlist there is.I'm surprised that I'm still allowed to board airplanes.Oh,wait....maybe I should give them any ideas.

And I think it would be naive to believe that posters to FR...except,maybe,the ones who get zotted...are being watched as well.
