"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken

Gees, I am so disappointed in the "land of the free and home of the brave". Why no comments, by anybody? Let's make STR a bastion of freedom by contributing. Silence leaves everyone under the impression they are alone and isolated, pissing in the wind. Make some noise, wreak some intellectual havoc. Don't you understand that if you don't take a risk and fight tyranny, you are really choosing between the certainty of long term doom versus the chance of tyrant retaliation?
Surveillance is the flip side of Information suppression / subversion. Both are tools used to enslave us. Accurate information for our predators, bullshit for us.
Surveillance provides information used to control us. Information subversion is used for Environmental Control 101, to trick us into CHOOSING our own slavery.
Darwin warned us: Survival EQUALS ability to adapt to environment EQUALS ability to CHOOSE correctly EQUALS freedom:
