That headline isn’t an exaggeration. Mike Pompeo, the Kansas congressman and Donald Trump’s pick to head the CIA, who testified on Capitol Hill earlier today, wants the government to collect all metadata from everyone, regardless of whether they’re suspected of a crime or not.
Pompeo’s expansive view of the surveillance state was made clear in an op-ed he wrote for the Wall Street Journal earlier this year, titled “Time for a Rigorous National Debate About Surveillance.” That headline alone is a red flag: “national debate,” and its more common cousin “national dialogue,” are among the most bullshit terms in our political discourse, employed almost exclusively by those who desire the opposite. Continue reading “Trump’s pick to head the CIA wants to collect your personal metadata—all of it”

When Windows 10 was released, the tech world was abuzz with glee. But then, we all started to take a gander under the hood of this software sportscar, only to discover a rather horrifying sight. It seems this ride tracks every … little … thing … you … do, and then quickly reports this data to the James-Bond-villain headquarters, otherwise known as Microsoft.
“It’s for your own convenience,” they said. Continue reading “How To Stop Windows 10 From Tracking Your Every Move”

WEB Notes: So nothing happened at the Israel-Palestinian Peace Summit that neither of them were a part of, imagine that! No, Israel was not divided and the world did not fall a part. This should not be a surprise to anyone, we wrote, “January 15th: 70 Nations Will Meet At The Israeli-Palestinian Peace Summit” stating as much would happen. Do not be one of these people who falls into the traps laid by those in the media, mainstream or not. Nothing was going to happen at this Summit as it was not on the agenda. It was not possible to divide Israel as some stated would happen. Use common sense folks and learn to think for yourself.

WEB Notes: Imagine that. So they admit it is illegal for the NSA to have this data to begin with and then they tell us they have new rules that will allow them to share the illegally captured information with other government entities.
Now who is the paranoid one here? Americans who want to retain their privacy or the government who breaks its own laws to capture information about you? Make note of all these last minute changes obama has been making. If trump does not agree with these moves he will undue them which I highly doubt.

Late in 2016, I predicted the week after the election would be hell week as people revolted against the election results, and it was so. First, the mainstream media stared into living rooms in shock and awe as they reported with tear-brimmed eyes that the nation had not voted for the media’s Anointed One. Then city blocks closed down to allow for proper rioting. By morning, the nation awoke to find that rioters had smashed windows and were lighting fires.
