The same method used was in a “Person of Interest” episode.”

Great program IMO but just getting a little tooooooo real, also the last two episodes of NCIS:Los Angeles could easily have been total fact, not fiction.

Why wouldn’t it be true? She was the only one from the Lame stream media who reported about the Operation Fast and Furious scandal, Benghazi and other White House scandals

Third party experts have looked at her computer and come to the conclusion that her computer was seriously compromised and not in the viral/Trojan sense. It is true there is essentially no way to determine who actually did it and prove it was the government. That fact allows the government to be pretty bold in its activities because they know you have no means of proving it.

I can pretty much guarantee you that there are back doors in the major commercial operating systems for government to get access for “law enforcement” purposes.

I personally believe it, but like to side with caution.

This current gubbamint is racked full of scandal and corruption. This includes Reid, Boehner, Pelosi, Shultz.

Is it just me or are all of’em creepy as hell. They don’t even act like normal human beings.

When did Mike Hastings die?

June 18th, 2013. Around the same time of the Atkisson computer gremlins and subsequent firing.

He has a deep background in investigative reporting and questioning the government pretty sharply. He's mostly a lefty, but did pretty good work. He had one arrest for drugs, and it is true that he was on some type of antidepressant at the time of his death, so those are reasonable mitigating factors.

He told all his close colleagues he thought he was being followed and that he'd have to "drop off the grid for awhile".

He was making his way to LAX in his Mercedes, which crashed and burned. The engine ended up about 100 meters from the crash.

There were also a few anomalies about his autopsy, something about the personnel chosen to do it and it's timing.

From Mike Hasting's wiki entry:

Hastings became a vocal critic of the surveillance state during the investigation of reporters by the U.S. Department of Justice in 2013, referring to the restrictions on the freedom of the press by the Obama administration as a "war" on journalism.[5] His last story, "Why Democrats Love to Spy On Americans", was published by BuzzFeed on June 7.[6][7] Hastings died in a fiery high-speed automobile crash on June 18, 2013, in Los Angeles, California.[8] Blue Rider Press posthumously published his only novel, The Last Magazine (2014), a year after his death.[9]

You have to instead of feigning outrage, take it to those who actually did this. You have to make it personal.

I had a debate with someone who (along with the media) claimed a gas tank explosion was responsible for burning Hastings’ car. I’m not the most mechanical person around so I’m asking those who know what the object is at the middle officer’s feet in your image. It looks a lot like an intact gas tank to me but I could be wrong. Also notice that the part of the car with the worst burn damage is in the driver’s area, not the rear of the car where tanks are usually placed.

commercial, nonattributable spyware that’s proprietary to a government agency

If it's proprietary to a government agency then it's not "nonattributable". Just sayin...

Here is a link to the last article of Mike Hastings before he crashed and burned to death:

While I believe her, there is no confirmation of her story in this article. She has claimed that an unnamed computer expert found these things but has produced neither the expert nor the corrupting malware and secret document files.

So far, there is nothing to go on but her word.

She’s lucky.
