Why I don't have a Smartphone / Police State Intro

I don't have a lot of time today, and saddly enough came across a lot of interesting things to upload today, but this little quicky will hafta do for now.

Your iPhone Is Tracking Your Location History



And, in other news, cops can now download all your data from your phone. All contacts, all texts, all pictures, all everything... for no reason at all. Even though they "don't use it for anything". Yeah... then why the hell download it???

This hits on a topic that I'm becoming more and more concerned about, even, quite possibly, moreso than the impending economic collapse: The Policed States of America. Every day (it seems) more and more utterly shocking, and literally almost -unbelievable- stories pop up that showcase how the US is becoming more and more of a Police State Society. It utterly sickens me, and has me very concerned... -especially- in the midst of such turbulent economic times. I'm planning on doing a much more comprehensive post on this issue, but I found this video today that is utterly fucking hilarious until you realize that it's actually meant to be taken seriously. Interestingly enough, when I was somewhere else on the internet, I actually sad an add for the TSC, and how they were training people to get their degrees in "Terrorism Surveillance". I actually thought it was a joke at first, but then I realized it was actually 100% legitimate. Well, as legitimate as something like that could ever be, anyway.



Unfortunately, that's obviously been edited to remove Alex Jones comments, but it's still quite interesting to say the least... Especially considering the fact that over 1,000,000 people were on the suspected terrorist list in 2009... god knows what it is now! There have been several documented cases of people being put on that list for doing little more than supporting Ron Paul or subscribing to alternative media outlets (which the DHC recently said it's going to launch a 1 billion dollar program to counter "terrorism supporting alternative media" in this country)... combine this with recent executive orders that allow police to detain suspected terrorists without doing anything wrong or giving them any of their constitutional rights (as I will explain in said future posts) and you quickly see where this is going....

If you're not one of the sheeple, then you're one of the terrorists. Land of the free indeed.
