RE: NSA Whistleblower Edward Snowden In His Own Words
One of my old girls would never bang me in front of the computer or near it. She would say the cameras were watching us and people could hack and see us. I thought she was insane. Turns out if you have a camera built into your laptop, desktop or smartphone they can watch what you are doing at any given time.

With that said I really need to find some old files that they have stored in their database of me banging chicks!

I don't care who spy's on me. Let them watch. I do some really cool shit!

She says:

"She should know how you perpetuate rape culture. I am sick of being treated like this."

Any man that is sexually forward is now branded a perpetuator of something called "rape culture". That is one of those phrases that makes my blood boil whenever I hear it. Fucking feminists always need some boogeyman issue to get riled up about. Now there's supposedly some crime epidemic of rape going on which emanates from so-called rape culture.

Btw, I think what that guy did was moronic, and frankly I don't even care that she forwarded the photo to his mom. That dumbass needs to learn some class and tact. I don't like this woman implicating rape when she wasn't even remotely threatened.

There have been documented cases of the government uploading spying software into phones that would activate the mic and camera without the user knowing. They prosecuted someone in the mafia by doing this. I'm not sure if this is as easily possible on a computer because most of us have anti virus software that would stop someone from executing a program that we didn't initiate.

This is a reason many people prefer open source operating systems and software. Microsoft Windows is sure to have back doors open to the government.

RE: NSA Whistleblower Edward Snowden In His Own Words
Some have asked (in other places) about the American people expressing their outrage at this. They think this is the moment where we stand up to Skynet and its masters and put them in their place.

I laugh. There will be no outcry. There are a number of reasons why:

1. We have seen a barrage of scandals, and the public can't seem to focus on anything for more than a minute. We have seen Fast and Furious, Benghazi, tapping the press (AP), tapping the news, harassing conservatives and now this. The Administration learned from past experience that you can overwhelm an opponent with a barrage of information (see the Republican Party since 2010).

2. We have forgotten basic rights and the Constitution. What do you expect when politically correct Progressives and Statists run pre-kindergarden, the schools, colleges, arts, media (news, entertainment, Hollywood), trade unions, local, state and federal government machines? We do not teach the Constitution or basic rights anymore. People have a vague notion of what those things are. We have forgotten that the people control the machine; not the machine controlling the people. We expect to be taken care of from cradle to the grave (Obamacare, Obamaphones, student loans, Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac, unemployment, Social Security, food stamps, Medicare, Medicade, tax credits and God knows what else). We fear some random act of terrorism rather than standing on our own two feet, shaking our fist at the world and going our own way.

3. The American public is content to freely give this information away by the minute. In addition to basic data (full names, birthdays, home city, etc.), we post pictures, thoughts, beliefs, friends, family, eating habits, likes, dislikes, occupations, work history, workout history, certifications, philosophies, locations, allegences and purchases by the second. This kind of information is low hanging fruit on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and all kinds of related applications. WE GIVE IT AWAY. We let any schmoe in and view it, and we are disappointed when no one "likes" it or comments on it in a millisecond.

Companies are thrilled to grab information and market to you. The government is happy to build a profile and create an enemies list. Don't forget, this is the same bunch that had files of enemies on Hillary's desk back in the Clinton era. We have seen one man destroyed because he apparently did not toe the line (General Patreaus). What makes you think you are a snowflake?

Houston is right: go with a fake name and try to minimize your exposure. IP addresses are a problem, and they can track you. There must be a way around that (Tor?).

Damn....Putin (former KGB Director) sounds more reasonable than Obama (Constitutional attorney and professor). What kind of a fucked up world do we live in?


It is disgusting and an over-reach of power. And....Fuck you, NSA.

What's even worse is that even if the device is off they could still make the camera functional. As long as it's connected to a source of power.

I just put a piece of opaque tape over the camera. Problem solved. I learned this a long time ago, when I was joining a group call and after some time finally noticed my picture was being sent to every participant without me knowing it, just because I wasn't familiar with the software.

If this guy defects to China, he's no fucking patriot. He's just an opportunist who tells everybody what we already know. He's just an aspie nerd who is so dogmatic about internet secrecy he naively believes the enemy of his (our?) enemy is his friend. Invasion of privacy is like taxation, the only thing you can do is mitigate it, or else move to a country that doesn't have the infastructure to spy/collect. As Aurini said in this video, the freest markets are not the freest societies, libertarianism is too idealistic.

What happens when the government decides to use the information it has on it citizens to crush political dissent?

I don't want the government snooping and knowing everything about me.

What happens when we give all our info to Facebook/LinkedIn/google and they decide to sell it off to every company under the sun? Would people feel better if the gov paid for this info like everybody else?

The government is doing more than that. They are creating logs of phone calls sent/received and text messages send/received, gathering location data from phone records, archiving e-mails sent/received from your private e-mail accounts, gathering lists of websites visited on your computer, etc.

He had a very attractive girl friend. I don't know how far he can go without a woman. I mean he is just a human like one of us.

He can still sleep and eat somewhere though.

But what would he be thinking when he has to masturbate to satisfy one of the most basic needs?

He's world famous. He might as well have the proverbial chocolate dick that squirts money. Women are far too dumb to understand or care what he did, as long as their friends know who he is.

hahahahah Putin is hilarious.

I've been saying this.

His plan/move was poorly calculated. 122k -200k yearly salary GONE and he's done nothing more than what the Electronic Frontier Foundation has been doing for years, without committing treason.

He's either an idiot or a scapegoat. This shit is in the forefront because they WANT it to be there to misdirect folks from the more insidious shit going on.

I don't want the government snooping and knowing everything about me.

They do this already. It's called the IRS. Basically every president since Roosevelt has used the IRS to get political revenge.

I don't support government spying, as much as I don't support the cuckholdery that is income taxes (where men basically pay for benefits to single welfare mothers and the unemployable undertow that seeds them). Seeking refuge in the Sinosphere (Hong Kong may have its own laws and more freedom of press, but they are a part of greater China) pisses me off, call me a nationalist, but as much as I hate how the Frankfort school and cultural marxism have taken over and destroyed the values that are America, the enemy of my enemy is not my friend.

Too much of this desire for internet freedom is a noble but easily losable cause. Between Large, bureaucratic governments with massive support from their dependants (recipients of transfer payments) and the oligarchy that is the tech industry, no society (unless you start a micronation) will have internet freedom.

It's like those Guy fawkes fuckers. First they stand for freedom and shit, but then they decide to becoming totally a tool of the left, http://www.technewsdaily.com/6654-left-l...brand.html although this article makes it sound like these are just a few lefties perverting the anonymous brand in order to drum up support for their acts.

The IRS comparison is not the same since the type of surveillance that is currently being conducted could one day be used to prosecute people who violate speech code laws. Hell, they are already ignoring the 4th amendment with this type of surveillance, what is to say they won't one day ignore the 1st amendment.
