14 New Ways That The Government Is Watching You

Every Breath You Take
Every Move You Make


If you live in the United States today, you need to understand that your privacy is being constantly eroded. Our world is going crazy, government paranoia is off the charts and law enforcement authorities have become absolutely obsessed with watching us, listening to us, tracking us, recording us, compiling information on all of us and getting us all to spy on one another. If you doubt that we are rapidly getting to the point where the government will monitor every breath you take and every move you make, just read the rest of this article. The truth is that the government is watching you more closely than ever, and they are spending billions upon billions of dollars to enhance their surveillance capabilities even further. If our society stays on this current path, we will eventually have zero privacy left. At this point, it is not too hard to imagine a society where we will not be able to say anything, buy anything, sell anything, assemble with others or even leave our homes without government permission. We truly are descending into a dystopian nightmare and the American people had better wake up.


Sadly, most people living in the United States and in Europe do not realize what is happening. Most of them think that everything is just fine. The "Big Brother control grid" that is being constructed all over the western world squeezes all of us just a little bit tighter every single day, and most people don't even feel it.

But when you step back and take a look at the big picture, it truly is horrifying.

The following are 14 new ways that the government is watching you....


#1 In many areas of the United States today, you will be arrested if you do not produce proper identification for the police. In the old days, "your papers please" was a phrase that we used to use to mock the tyranny of Nazi Germany. But now all of us are being required to be able to produce "our papers" for law enforcement authorities at any time. For example, a 21-year-old college student named Samantha Zucker was recently arrested and put in a New York City jail for 36 hours just because she could not produce any identification for police.


#2 The federal government has decided that what you and I share with one another on Facebook and on Twitter could be a threat to national security. According to a recent Associated Press article, the Department of Homeland Security will soon be "gleaning information from sites such as Twitter and Facebook for law enforcement purposes".

Other law enforcement agencies are getting into the act as well. For example, the NYPD recently created a special "social media" unit dedicated to looking for criminals on social media networks such as Facebook and Twitter.

#3 New high-tech street lights that are being funded by the federal government and that are being installed all over the nation can also be used as surveillance cameras, can be used by the DHS to make "security announcements" and can even be used to record personal conversations. The following is from a recent article by Paul Joseph Watson for Infowars.com....


Federally-funded high-tech street lights now being installed in American cities are not only set to aid the DHS in making “security announcements” and acting as talking surveillance cameras, they are also capable of “recording conversations,” bringing the potential privacy threat posed by ‘Intellistreets’ to a whole new level.


#4 More than a million hotel television sets all over America are now broadcasting propaganda messages from the Department of Homeland Security promoting the "See Something, Say Something" campaign. In essence, the federal government wants all of us to become "informants" and to start spying on one another constantly. The following comes from an article posted by USA Today....


Starting today, the welcome screens on 1.2 million hotel television sets in Marriott, Hilton, Sheraton, Holiday Inn and other hotels in the USA will show a short public service announcement from DHS. The 15-second spot encourages viewers to be vigilant and call law enforcement if they witness something suspicious during their travels.


#5 The FBI is now admittedly recording Internet talk radio programs all over the United States. The following comes from a recent article by Mark Weaver of WMAL.com....

If you call a radio talk show and get on the air, you might be recorded by the FBI.
The FBI has awarded a $524,927 contract to a Virginia company to record as much radio news and talk programming as it can find on the Internet.
The FBI says it is not playing big brother by policing the airwaves, but rather seeking access to what airs as potential evidence.


Potential evidence of what?

This is very creepy. Why is the FBI so interested in what is being said during Internet talk radio programs?

#6 TSA VIPR teams are now conducting random inspections at bus stations and on interstate highways all over the United States. For example, the following comes from a local news report down in Tennessee....


You're probably used to seeing TSA's signature blue uniforms at the airport, but now agents are hitting the interstates to fight terrorism with Visible Intermodal Prevention and Response (VIPR).
"Where is a terrorist more apt to be found? Not these days on an airplane more likely on the interstate," said Tennessee Department of Safety & Homeland Security Commissioner Bill Gibbons.
Tuesday Tennessee was first to deploy VIPR simultaneously at five weigh stations and two bus stations across the state.


#7 Thermal imaging face scanners are becoming much more sophisticated. Law enforcement authorities in the western world are getting very excited about "pre-crime" tools such as this that will enable them to "prevent crimes" before they happen. The following is from a recent BBC News article....


A sophisticated new camera system can detect lies just by watching our faces as we talk, experts say.
The computerised system uses a simple video camera, a high-resolution thermal imaging sensor and a suite of algorithms.
Researchers say the system could be a powerful aid to security services.


But face scanners are not just a tool that will be used in the future. The truth is that face scanners are being used all over the United States right now. The following comes from an article posted on Singularity Hub....


Law enforcement continues to adopt new technologies in an effort to make their jobs easier and keep us safer. The latest gizmo attaches to officers’ iPhones and turns them into biometric face scanners. The scanners have already been street tested in Massachusetts. Pretty soon cops all across the US will be using them to ID suspects.


Before long, technology like this will be all over America. In fact, the FBI has announced that it will be activating a "nationwide facial recognition service" in January.


#8 Another "pre-crime" technology currently being tested by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security is The Future Attribute Screening Technology (FAST) program. The following description of this new program comes from an article in the London Telegraph....
Using cameras and sensors the "pre-crime" system measures and tracks changes in a person's body movements, the pitch of their voice and the rhythm of their speech.
It also monitors breathing patterns, eye movements, blink rate and alterations in body heat, which are used to assess an individual's likelihood to commit a crime.
The Future Attribute Screening Technology (FAST) programme is already being tested on a group of government employees who volunteered to act as guinea pigs.

  
Do you want government officials to pull you aside and interrogate you just because you are feeling a little bit nervous one particular day?

#9 Sadly, "pre-crime" technology is even being used on our children. The Florida State Department of Juvenile Justice has announced that it will begin using analysis software to predict crime by young delinquents and will place "potential offenders" in specific prevention and education programs.

How soon will it be before this type of things is applied to adults?

#10 Our children are being programmed to accept the fact that they will be watched and monitored constantly. For example, the U.S. Department of Agriculture is spending large amounts of money to install surveillance cameras in the cafeterias of public schools all across the nation so that government control freaks can closely monitor what our children are eating.

#11 The U.S. government is also increasingly using "polls" and "surveys" as tools to gather information about all of us. In previous articles, I have noted how government authorities seems particularly interested in our children. According to Mike Adams of Natural News, the CDC is starting to call parents all over the U.S. to question them about the vaccination status of their children....



The U.S. Centers for Disease Control, which has been comprehensively exposed as a vaccine propaganda organization promoting the interests of drug companies, is now engaged in a household surveillance program that involves calling U.S. households and intimidating parents into producing child immunization records. As part of what it deems a National Immunization Survey(NIS), the CDC is sending letters to U.S. households, alerting them that they will be called by "NORC at the University of Chicago" and that households should "have your child's immunization records handy when answering our questions."

You can see a copy of the letter that the CDC has been sending out to selected parents right here.

#12 As I have written about previously, a very disturbing document that Oath Keepers has obtained shows that the FBI is now instructing store owners to report many new forms of "suspicious activity" to them. According to the document, "suspicious activity" now includes the following....


*paying with cash


*missing a hand or fingers


*"strange odors"


*making "extreme religious statements"


*"radical theology"


*purchasing weatherproofed ammunition or match containers


*purchasing meals ready to eat


*purchasing night vision devices, night flashlights or gas masks


Do any of those "signs of suspicious activity" apply to you?


According to a report on WorldNetDaily, this document is part of a "series of brochures" that will be distributed "to farm supply stores, gun shops, military surplus stores and even hotels and motels."

#13 In some areas of the country, law enforcement authorities are pulling data out of cell phones for no reason whatsoever. According to the ACLU, state police in Michigan are now using "extraction devices" to download data from the cell phones of motorists that they pull over. This is taking happening even if the motorists that are pulled over are not accused of doing anything wrong.

The following is how a recent article on CNET News described the capabilities of these "extraction devices"....

The devices, sold by a company called Cellebrite, can download text messages, photos, video, and even GPS data from most brands of cell phones. The handheld machines have various interfaces to work with different models and can even bypass security passwords and access some information.

#14 The government can spy on us and record our conversations seemingly without any limitation, but in many areas of the country it has become illegal to watch them or record them in public. For example, one 21-year-old man down in Florida was recently arrested for trying to document a confrontation that he was having with police on his iPhone. But if we can't record them, how can we prove our side of the story in court?

America is becoming a much different place.

Our privacy is being eroded in thousands of different ways.

National governments and big corporations know far more about you than you probably ever would imagine.

Yes, there will always be "security threats", but we should not have to throw away any of our rights in order to be "safe".

America is supposed to be about liberty and freedom.

America is supposed to be the land of the free and the home of the brave.

If given the choice between living in "1984" and living in "1776", I know what my choice would be.

I would choose 1776.

I would choose liberty and freedom even if it meant that the world around me was a little bit less "safe".

What about you?

What would you choose?

We Can't Afford to Nominate a Counterfeit Conservative

RON PAUL
A TRUE AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE


Dear Choice America Network readers,

Republican voters aren't fickle. They're not just looking for another
 "flavor of the month."

What voters want is a solid conservative candidate who can take on
 and defeat BOTH Mitt Romney and President Obama in 2012.

It's just that as soon as voters start to learn more about my Republican
 
opponents, they realize they don't fit the bill!

Well, as a recent poll in Iowa showing me statistically tied for first
place proved, and another in New Hampshire placing me clearly in
second place showed, my unapologetic conservatism is winning the day.

Of course, this isn't by accident or sheer luck. I've been campaigning
hard in Iowa and New Hampshire for months.

And while I've never been given a fair shake by the national media,
I've also understood that as people learn more about the records of
my opponents - whether that's Newt Gingrich or Herman Cain - it's
only a matter of time until they're exposed as counterfeits.

That's why my campaign's strategy has always been to talk directly
to good folks like you who truly care about the direction of our country
and understand that you and I just can't afford to continue "politics
as usual."

Unfortunately, as many voters are now finding out, "politics as usual"
is really what every other "top-tier" Republican alternative to Mitt Romney
besides me is all about.


For example, Herman Cain's economic plan doesn't cut spending or
even pretend to. His answer is to simply ignore Washington, D.C.'s
spending problem.

Instead, his "9-9-9" plan raises taxes on 84% of the American people.

Herman Cain has also supported TARP and publicly rejected the idea
of eliminating federal agencies. He even went on radio mocking those
supporting an Audit of the Federal Reserve - asking them to call up the
Fed's PR Department if they wanted information!

Of course, not long afterward, we found out the Federal Reserve made
available 16 TRILLION in American taxpayer dollars during the last
economic crisis - many of it to banks overseas!

And this isn't worth looking into?

Sadly, Newt Gingrich's record could even be worse.

Whether it's calling for a health insurance mandate like that of
both ObamaCare and RomneyCare or supporting "Cap and Tax"
and the $700 BILLION TARP bailout, even standing next to
Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich is hardly a conservative champion.

Just consider the estimated $1.6 million he was paid by Freddie Mac
 to help keep the housing bubble expanding even while I was warning
Congress that this would lead to disaster for the American economy.

Considering the times we're facing, nominating another counterfeit is
the last thing we need.

As voters are finding out - despite the best efforts of the national media -
I am the candidate who has the conservative message not only to win the
presidency but to turn our country around.


During my entire time in Congress, I've been warning about the dangers
of Big Government, out-of-control spending, and runaway inflation.

And I'm the only candidate to predict the current economic mess we're
in right now.

In 2003, I predicted the Housing crisis and pushed to get the government
out of the mortgage business.

In 2008, I fought TARP and the Fed when they laid waste to our economy,
while others in this race applauded their disastrous Big Government
intervention.

And unlike my opponents and most people in Congress, I am absolutely
ready to enact real spending cuts, right now.

In fact, my Plan to Restore America cuts $1 trillion in federal spending
during the first year of my presidency by eliminating five federal
departments that I can actually name - Education, Energy, Commerce,
Housing and Urban Development, and Interior.

As President, I'll balance the budget by year three without cutting one
penny from our veterans, one penny from our senior citizens, or one
penny from our national defense.

That's what sets me apart - my plan, my record of being right while
others were wrong, and my unmatched and unwavering record of
fighting for fiscal responsibility and constitutional principles.

In a nutshell, it's my conservatism that's winning the day.



Once people learn about my support for the Second Amendment
and the Right to Life, and my unmatched record on spending in
Congress, they realize I am the true conservative alternative to
Mitt Romney.

And when they learn that I'm a man of faith, a military veteran -
having served five years in the Air Force during the turbulent 1960s
 - and that I've received more money from our active duty troops
than all my Republican opponents COMBINED, they realize I'm the
Republican to take on and DEFEAT President Obama in 2012.

Unlike my opponents, I'm not running from my voting record.

I'm not running from my public statements. I'm not running
from my predictions.

I'm running on them.

And I'm asking for
your support.

These are troubling times for our country - times that call for
conservative leadership.

Counterfeits won't cut it.

As I run for President, I want to make sure our Party keeps its
strong commitment to limited constitutional government and
free market solutions.

The only way to do that is to nominate someone in 2012 who
predicted the economic crisis long before it happened. Someone
who has conviction and has fought against Big Government in
Washington his entire career.

And if you are so moved, I'd appreciate it if you would consider
have big corporations or special interests behind my campaign.

But I do have hundreds of thousands of individuals who care
about getting our economy moving in the right direction again.
Whatever you can do, $500, $250, $100, or even $50,
will help.

Together, you and I can Restore America Now.


For Liberty,


Ron Paul

P.S. Considering the trouble our country is facing, we can't
afford to nominate a counterfeit conservative.

Now, a recent article by CBS rightly notes, "New poll shows
4-way tie in Iowa as Ron Paul moves to top tier." And another
poll in New Hampshire shows me clearly in second place.

I'm in this race to win it, and today I'm asking for your support.

If you believe our Party must nominate a true conservative,
I hope I can count on your generous support.

'Until Their Children Wake-Up Homeless",....

Portrait of Thomas Jefferson by Rembrandt Peal...Image via Wikipedia
"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties

than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to

control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation,

the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive

the people of all property - until their children wake-up homeless on the

continent their fathers conquered."
