In the name of combatting terrorism, we are moving to a total surveillance and total control society where every single move or communication is captured and studied. Such power can assure that Obama or whoever are perpetually in power and can be employed to sanction and destroy any opposition.
At least this guy is telling the truth.
The intelligence gathering is going to gat worse instead of better. That lying sissy boy Muslim in the White House said just the opposite.
But they are not spying on you. /sarcasm
Another liar. If they can do it, they are doing it, without regard to warrants or anything else. They built the systems, they are using them. I'd wager the warrants are post-facto to any evidence gathering.
All that will result is that the bad guys will develop other ways to communicate. Peer-to-peer encrypted, coded messages, want ads, Craigslist, etc. There are still means to communicate that will delay things enough to do bad deeds and get away anonymously.
These types of systems will also make the cops blind/unaware of events operating outside the systems reach. Within a generation of cops that depend on this sensory surveillance data, they won't even be able to take a finger print.
I saw the interview and whooped when h said smething like I had just told sme friends,that they had too many people involved and needed to up technology.
I had 30 years of active military and contractor service, most with top clearances,including intel. I had background checks for each new job that took 6 months or more.
I think technology got ahead of these agencies and they had to depend on people WITHOUT proper background investigation.
obama would never had got past the first checks. So ths admin prob relaxed requirements across the board. clinton did this to, I believe.
