Let’s start here with Verizon’s patent for a DVR box that has a microphone and sensors inside it to watch you inside the privacy of your own home in order to ‘target advertising’.
I wonder how the rest of ‘Real America’ (not the elites and their henchmen; the police, IRS agents, the banks, credit card companies, certain segments of the intelligence community and the military, etc.) feels about drones flying overhead recording and analyzing their every move? How much more like 1939 Germany must America become before the shit finally hits the fan? The frakkin’ cameras everywhere but in your undies are bad enough, but this bullshit is now officially over the top. This headline says it all…really? FRAKKIN’ REALLY?
The nation’s police chiefs have adopted a code of conduct for their use of drones, including letting any images captured by unmanned aerial vehicles, or UAVs, be open to inspection by the public, and that the images not be stored unless they are evidence of a crime or part of an ongoing investigation.
The chiefs also said that if they plan to fly drones over an area where they are likely to spot criminal activity and where they would be intruding on someone’s “reasonable expectations of privacy,” they should seek to get a search warrant first.
In their three-page document, the chiefs said they are aware of privacy issues that have arisen with the prospect of an explosion in both governmental and private use of drone technology.
Oh thank you so much!! That statement makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside about unmanned drones spying on every inch of land, and I just know the police are gonna keep their word. I just know they are because they are there to protect and to serve. Right? Really? Truly? That’s rich. I thought this was supposed to be the land of the free and the home of the brave….nah, not so much for the last five decades. So much easier to tell you what you want to hear, then make another industry and a few asshats at the top very rich, add to the states’ coffers with revenue, AND get you sheeples to fall in line and ACCEPT! With the added bonus that these jackoffs never actually have to go out and get their hands dirty (i.e. work for a living). To Protect and Serve…riiiiigggghhhhttt. It’s been decades since our police had anything but collecting revenue as the basis for their actions. DUI checkpoint anyone?
You do realize what this actually says? “We don’t give a rat’s ass what you criminals think. We Can So We’re Going To!’ ‘You’re all a bunch of criminals anyways, and we just haven’t been able to catch you and make you pay the tribute yet.’…until now.
Welcome to the Fourth Reich for as long as the financial rollercoaster allows it to last…and then….the shoe will be on the other foot.
