More on the memeers…

So I hope everyone had a good read of the article I included the other day – the one from www.urbansurvival.com.

As a recap; there are more and more government programs being used to locate the ‘trouble makers’, i.e. those who have worked out what is coming down the line and who to stiffle.

“Silently Self-Profiling — YOU

A couple of readers have asked me lately “Is there some stuff on your mind that’s bothering you? You sound kinda bleak lately.” Well, yeah, kinda sorta maybe. Let me share just one of those things that’s been bothering me; perhaps you’ll understand. Here’s what’s going on:

It starts off simply enough…you get an email from a friend and it says something like: “OMG You have to see this video about [fill in the blank]. Because you’re very interested in [fill in the blank] as a topic, you click over to the link to see what’s a highly charged video about [fill in the blank] and the video urges you to ‘tell all your friends about this video and send them the link…’.

If you’re not computer/military/PowersThatBe savvy, you’re likely to pass on the link without giving it a second thought. But you should give it some serious thought whenever you follow links because when you follow links you may be self-profiling yourself to the government.

Amazing? Well, no, pretty simple programming exercise, really. And, if you had the ‘summer of hell/2009’ coming up due to all kinds of social stresses and the breakdown of the social contract, right about now if you were trying to defend the existing social paradigm, you’d be doing the same thing, too.

It’s called ‘memeering’ and according to our predictive linguistics friends at http://www.halfpasthuman.com the program is already underway. Toward what end? Well, what’s a low-cost way to find out who is what kind of potential threat to your paradigm? I’ll show you how it works, step-by-step so you ‘get it’.

* It begins with a government setting up a web site with an emotionally charged video about something like ‘black powder’ or ‘inter-racial relations’.
* Then a series of postings is put out on the net in places where such a video would likely get a lot of attention. Say, in a ‘black powder’ kind of video they will post something emotionally compelling to a bunch of gun web sites and discussion groups.
* Next, when someone goes to the web site involved, it’s a simple matter for the site to log your internet protocol address. Skeptical? go to http://www.whatismyip.com and your ‘net address comes up.

Congratulations! You have just gotten yourself into a government database of people who have an ‘interest in black powder’.”

and further:
“here’s my bottom line: When you do any kind of social networking, be extremely careful with whom you associate. Or, in the case of Cliff and me, simply don’t follow unknown links. Nothing wrong with YouTube and Google video, but even there, the IP snooping that goes on at the phone company level is pretty awesome,; which is what the privacy people get all worked up about.

Why am I bringing this up today? Because the web bot project has been running across more of these kinds of memeering operations lately which means one of these days, one or more of them will show up in your email. And, as they do, no matter how tempting it may seem to follow this emotionally highly-charged link just remember that in the process you are self-sorting yourself into some kind of a government profile as part of ‘total information awareness’ programs designed to enable preemptions, national security rating, and in a worst of all cases scenario, your round-up priority if you’ve identified yourself as a ‘risk’ to the existing paradigm.

Although it may be too late to do anything about it, if you’ve already gotten such emails and followed them. But WTF, its easier to explain it now than waiting till the October-November period when there is a small, but non-zero, chance some rounding up will be done.

Oh…one more thing: If you think you can ‘beat the system’ by using an open access proxy server somewhere? Are you kidding? Those would be almost the very first people to round up because they’re smart enough to ‘get it’ and therefore are the most threatening there are to the existing paradigm, are you kidding?”

Here’s what one of the Rockefeller’s thinks of the internet:

Just in case you don’t understand how that can work – I suggest starting here – lawful intercept. How it applies to the US is detailed in this document. A pretty picture of how it works on an IP network (i.e. the internet) is in this very helpful guide – here. The same thing can be used on 3G and GSM mobile phones – here.
Never mind the simple fact that a mobile can be tracked to under a hundred meters in a densely populated area, auch as London, Paris, New York; by triangulating the ‘cells’ the phone is connecting to at any one time.

You might also have heard that in the UK the government’s new anti-terror initiative will include monitoring of ‘social’ websites (Telegraph Article) (BBC Article) like myspace, facebook, Bebo, etc. Like any self respecting terrorist will be broadcasting his intentions in such a way… but never mind. In the minds of the fools in charge; for ‘security’ we will surely be fine giving up our freedoms. Well – here’s a news flash Downing Street – we know who you are really going after…

Finally, I hope everyone has pretty good firewall software, and perhaps a copy of PeerGuardian2.
Perhaps others have noticed ‘sniffing’ from the Navy Network Information Center (NNIC ip range 205.56.0.0 – 205.117.255.255)? I have had a report of my YouTube videos somehow being routed from YouTube through these IP ranges… Let me know if your firewall is recording any unusual activity from military locations…

Time to find some food! Hope everyone is practising safe web activities!

Peace

P.S. To cheer you up – here’s a nice YouTube clip expressing what so many feel about Gordon Brown. Enjoy 🙂
