Speak Up! The CIA Is Listening

Message 176 of 1152

..well, reading, at least.

We may as well give 'em something to do:

America’s spy agencies want to read your blog posts, keep track of your Twitter updates — even check out your book reviews on Amazon.

In-Q-Tel, the investment arm of the CIA and the wider intelligence community, is putting cash into Visible Technologies, a software firm that specializes in monitoring social media. It’s part of a larger movement within the spy services to get better at using ”open source intelligence” — information that’s publicly available, but often hidden in the flood of TV shows, newspaper articles, blog posts, online videos and radio reports generated every day. view link

So, let us keep this page current and you all exercise the rights we hold, at this time.

I would think that making it to Obama's enemy list could be considered a badge of honor. I certainly never plan to be on his friend's list. No enemy of America is a friend of mine.

Actaully a person can bury secret transmissions in these social sites, in a free society there is so much chatter going on it is hard to sort out the stuff you want to know. It is like finding a needle in a haystack.

Yes, Blues, I have no problem speaking up, because not to and/or agreeing with, this sham of a president's unlawful policies is akin to treason.

Serenity, I agree and so, I think I'll make things a lot easier for patriots and this Admin's ghouls, to spot.

Whats scary, though, is that since they don't know who is a real bad guy and who is a patriot speaking freely, conceivably they will round up everyone who has come to their attention with the dangerous keywords they're looking for. And then the good guys will have to prove their innocence while the bad guys use this country's freedoms to disseminate. Its a very sticky situation nowadays.

I can understand that Archer, sure can. But to me to remain silent allows a win by fear tactics. In fact, the very articles that point to such things taking place, may all be part of getting us to shut up, or to stop visiting and posting on webpages, which, promote our nation's Law in defiance of this treasonous Admin.

A little humor at the expense of the CIA --

“It had all the earmarks of a CIA operation; the bomb killed everybody in the room except the intended target!”

Fear-mongering is a popular tool of the government, from squelching free speech to the global warming hoax.
