“Former senior intelligence officials have created a detailed surveillance system more accurate than modern facial recognition technology — and have installed it across the US under the radar of most Americans.”
Wouldn’t surprise me. Can’t say it would really bother me either. The cameras are already there, and already being monitored by police agencies. If you can automate that monitoring so it can filter out the 99.999% of useless footage and help the guy staring at the screen just look at a few things that the computer flags I think that’s a worthwhile project.
People really can’t get mad about monitoring and surveillance anymore after the invention of Facebook.
They can’t? Oh…
doesn’t really sound any worse than the NSA data collection center they are building in utah… people seem to believe they record pretty much all significant activities on the internet and store them…that isn’t to say that they review everything since that would supposedly require a warrant, but if you ever do something suspicious that would allow them to get a warrant they can simply open up your file and see everything you have been up to for years and years…
the ACLU has also been pushing a case regarding license plate scanners trying to determine if they are aggregating the information to establish a mapping of where all registered vehicles are at various times…combined with red light cameras it really wouldn’t be that hard to track someone’s activities in a vehicle in a bigger city.
In b4 go-mint curfew.
Glad they slap Google with privacy lawsuits but when it comes to the government, they seem to just put their dick where ever they want.
This is bad but what is much worse is the fact that Israelis monitor our phone, internet activity, etc.
sigh… good bye america.
I hate thinking that I can’t leave my home without being seen on camera as there is a light about 200 yards from my garage.
Wait for one of the 30,000 drones to start flying over your house. Oh wait we already have drones flying over/observing us.
“yeah, that’s how they got my brother” LOL
Just out of curiosity. Why does this not bother you?
Treating everyone like a suspect and keeping surveillance everywhere :tdown:
It’s the same shit with those plate readers on cop cars

Some really interesting debates going on right now about people who find bugs in Microsoft and other software apps selling them to the government and then the government not passing info on to Microsoft etc so they can use the bugs to attack other nations.
I listened to an interesting news story on NPR about this and the newest virus they found in Lebanese banks. How Kaspersky finds these and sends the info out, and specifically to the Russian government as he used to work for the KGB as a computer specialist.
As leet as the government is 3rd parties will continue to find viruses/trojans reverse engineer them and post details.
It funny to watch the goverment have a cyber war and and say they’re not actually doing anything.
However US did take credit for the stuxnet thing in Iran way after the fact and after the news pretty much proved it was a Israel/US project

Wild fires. Another excuse to fly drones over our own country. Apparently we have been hit by many terrorist attacks this year but SURPRISINGLY it seems to be kept out of the news.
