                                                            Big Brother Is Real

 

            “With cutting edge technology, a rapid enlargement underway, and billions in budgetary funds at the ready, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency is the cloaked, mute sibling of the nefarious Intelligence Community — but it’s time to pull the protective shell off this potential ticking time bomb before reining it in becomes an impossibility.” http://www.blacklistednews.com/They_Can_See_a_‘Stick_of_Butter_from_Space’_—_The_Billion_Dollar_Spy_Agency_You’ve_Never_Heard_Of/57523/0/38/38/Y/M.html

 

            The brouhaha about Trump claiming he was “wiretapped” has opened a Pandora’s Box, revealing just how extensive and expansive the US spy apparatus actually is. The fact of the matter is all of us are surveilled on a real time minute by minute basis by several US and foreign “intelligence” agencies. For example, the National Security Agency is a humongous global listening post virtually eavesdropping on all our electronic exchanges, phone conversations and communiqués. https://www.wired.com/2012/03/ff_nsadatacenter/  The FBI has capabilities to spy on us (once called Carnivore later renamed DCS 1000) and has been doing so for decades replacing old fashioned wiretapping with much broader and sophisticated Internet surveillance devices https://www.cotse.net/privacy/carnivore.htm.

            Recent Wikileaks revelations called Vault 7 exposed how the CIA has embedded malware in Apple products, smart phones, televisions and PCs to spy on us https://www.cnet.com/news/wikileaks-cia-hacking-tools-phones-apple-samsung-microsoft-google/. But there is another much lesser known agency that is to visuals what the NSA is to audio, it’s called the National Geospacial-Intelligence Agency. This multi-billion dollar agency uses satellites and drones to capture and record images from around the world, it supposedly only focuses on foreign surveillance. http://www.blacklistednews.com/They_Can_See_a_‘Stick_of_Butter_from_Space’_—_The_Billion_Dollar_Spy_Agency_You’ve_Never_Heard_Of/57523/0/38/38/Y/M.html But given the sordid history of the US government you know its only a matter of time before they begin spying on us!

            So technically Donald Trump was correct, the shadow government did spy on him. The fact is none of us is exempt nor immune from the prying eyes of Big Brother and the US surveillance state. Trump with his limited vocabulary called it wiretapping. Wiretapping is an antiquated technique although it is still used in small scale local instances; but today most surveillance is done digitally. I’m not saying this to defend Trump because you cannot defend the indefensible, I am sharing this to show you just how pervasive surveillance is in the US. All of us, everyone who uses a phone, computer laptops, even our mobile devices have been turned into data capturing instruments to be exploited by the government and corporations.

            We live in a fascist society, corporations are in cahoots with the government to spy on us all the time. http://business.time.com/2014/01/15/4-creepiest-ways-corporate-america-is-spying-on-you/. So don’t get caught in the dog and pony show being put on by both political parties and the corporate media, we are all being spied upon for various reasons by numerous entities. Privacy for most of us is non-existent. Facebook, Twitter and other programs like Instagram are not only part of the government’s programming arsenal they are also potential surveillance tools. http://www.alternet.org/story/155764/6_government_surveillance_programs_designed_to_watch_what_you_do_online.

            Government agencies like the Department of Homeland Security and the IRS are using social media to track you and create a profile on you. The government says they do this to keep us safe and secure. The fact of the matter is, the NSA had Echelon and PRISM, the FBI had Carnivore way before 9-11 and both the FBI and CIA knew about Operation Bojinka http://www.globalsecurity.org/security/profiles/project_bojinka.htm a global terrorist operation whose goal was to use commercial airliners as bombs/missiles to kill civilians and blow up buildings as early as 1995! Yet they didn’t use this collected and known information to stop 9-11!!

             What are they doing with all the information and data they collect?! What good is all the taxpayer and off book money for “intelligence” if it doesn’t work or the government chooses not to use it to protect us?!! What’s the deal here, what’s up with that? Why aren’t the mainstream media asking these types of questions?

            There is a more sinister reason, perhaps the government and corporations use Big Brother to spy on, manipulate and control ordinary people as a way to protect the 1% and the status quo. Maybe Big Brother’s role is to prevent the masses from rising up against the plutocracy, the 1%. They remember the French and Haitian Revolutions, perhaps they shudder at what the masses did to the monarchs, royalty and colonial masters.  One thing for sure, the Trump “wiretapping” fiasco has revealed we definitely live in a total surveillance state.
