Reading between the lines on this article, seems we have kicked over the hornets nest on our own, and poked assorted beehives as well.

Looks like Obama really did set things in motion with what seems to have been a well managed covert campaign organized by various entities and using social networking and communication technologies.

who has designed secret cross-border links to the internet for people in several countries, does so by adding standard USB dongles designed for home Wi-Fi networks. Thus equipped, two properly aligned dishes as much as 100km apart can transmit enough data to carry high quality video. Moreover, the beam is so tightly focused that equipment a mere dozen metres away from its line would struggle to detect it.

Sure. The dish illumination won't be optimal using that USB dongle as a feed, but so what? It allows you to do something you could never do with the USB dongle alone.

Obozo is subversive of what is traditional Western thought and supportive of Marxist dictators.

None of what is in the article is high tech. We (not the government but citizens) helped the Iranian dissidents during the Iran Election phase of Twitter, and the Hondurans during their election crisis. Haystack was a brainchild of citizens not the government, but it was eventually used to track down the dissidents, when the Mullah's employed European tech companies for help.

There is nothing about Obozo that helps those wanting freedom. He is only supporting our destruction and the interest of foreign powers who hate us for our personal freedoms. Commies never create anything, only lie, steal and destroy things others create.

A high gain directional antenna on a CDMA phone
would extend battery life since the transmitter
would not have to run at as high a power level as
with an omnidirectional antenna. Good for fixed
operation.

There's more going on in the domestic telecom industry than what most people realize. If you think that things like this haven't been thought through and counters to it developed, at least at the theory level, then you're fooling yourself. I won't go much farther into it than what I've already said, but this much I can and will say. I have, in my time, worked with some extremely intelligent communications engineers and this work around, as well as it's counter, have been well known and established since the very earliest days of data transmission.

If the data is getting through, it's because someone wants it to get through.

Good information. Thank you very much.

Another way of confounding the authorities is to build portable FM radio stations. One broadcasting expert, who prefers not to be named but is currently based in Europe, is helping to develop a dozen such “backpack” radio stations for anti-government protesters ...
