Obama wants unfettered access to your Internet activity

Despite outrage over George Bush's limited ability to wiretap into American phone calls, Obama wants to take it a step further and be able to monitor every single form of communication any American citizen uses.

The same kind of authority the government has to wiretap into phone calls could be coming to Facebook, instant messaging, and every American's browser history, thanks to a push from the Obama administration.

The White House plans to introduce a bill into Congress next year that would give Obama the ability to tap into literally every communication any citizen makes online.

The move causes a whole new level of privacy concerns. After the outrageous uproar of the Bush administration's tapping into American phone records, privacy advocates should be all over this.

In a report on the New York Times, Center for Democracy and Technology VP James Dempsey was quoted as saying, "They basically want to turn back the clock and make Internet services function the way that the telephone system used to function."

Obummer was opposed to Bush tracking domestic Islamic terrorists. He and his cronies are all in favor of tracking Freepers, Tea Party types etc.

Never Again was in reference to the Holocaust.

Ahh.. Thanks for reminding me. My mistake.

[GOPJ]

Thanks for the ping.

I hope that whatever committee this goes before Rand Paul ends up being the chair.

Where in the U.S. Constitution does it state that the executive branch writes legislation?

The One pushes us into fascism and the media is silent.

Never Again? Seems to be ringing hollow while the clueless sleep as they did in 1933. Not long before Big Brother knocks on our doors or empties our bank accounts via DeathCare.

This is really an excellent point. I wonder if our friends in the Jewish community see the parallel.

[ExTexasRedhead]

Jewish Freepers and many who are waking up realize the perilous point in history that we’re at.

DeathCare, IMO, was designed as a genocide of whomever Big Brother wants to eliminate via Death Panels. Makes one wonder if a person’s religion, political affiliation, age (determined by the State), etc. will be used to send one to a Hospice Center for their pill. Everything about each of us is probably stored on Big Brother’s database somewhere. Doubt it?

[Upstate NY Guy]

No, I do not doubt it.

BTTT

[crosshairs]

How about we have unfettered access to all of his sealed records?

[crosshairs]

How about we have unfettered access to all of his sealed records? Beginning with a valid birth certificate.

[Upstate NY Guy]

Yeah. That would be great.

DemonRats consider laws to be used as clubs to beat the governed. As members of the ruling class they exempt themselves. The only answer to throw them all out of office.

[LomanBill]

Ever wonder if the clerks who empowered Adolph Hitler.... hadn't?

It is incumbent upon the honorable craftsman to be aware

of whether or not his services are being used

as a means to accomplish evil ends -

and to act [or NOT] accordingly.

[xtinct]

Can I shop unfettered on Obambi’s dime while he’s spying on my internet activity?

[Mad Dawgg]

"Obama wants unfettered access to your Internet activity..."

No Problem Barry... I'll take one for the team. You produce an Original long Form Birth Certificate (actual Hard Copy no PDFs or electronic Files) and you can track my Internet traffic to your hearts content!

[ilovesarah2012]

Can’t they already track a lot on the internet? I know private companies can get a lot of info about us already.

[ilovesarah2012]

Obama don’t need no stinkin U.S. Constitution!
