If the government wants to spy on me and follow me around, they might just discover the most powerful asmr ever! A life so boring, it will put insomniacs in a sleep coma. Keep watching and tracking me and to all a good sleep!

Well, I liked the video. Guess I’m on a watch list now. And now that I’ve commented I’m probably being tracked by a dedicated satellite. Since China is projected to have such a large economy I think the US is suffering from a bit of ‘keeping up with the joneses’ and the American people with suffer for it. Just like all the US companies breaking their back to get into the Chinese market so they don’t “lose out”. How much is my soul worth?

If a human never watches the surveillance but an artificial intelligence does watch it is it still spying?

Why does the nature of its creation have any bearing on the situation? For all we know we could be artificial intelligence ourselves, only organic ones.

I don’t do social media. I have no pictures of myself on the interebs. I don’t even have a cellphone number.
FYI, I was a tech Rockstar for Intel, NASA, SONY, and others. I don’t reject tech, but I am mindful of what I do with it, and how it can be used against me and others.

More laws will be ineffective against this problem. The problem starts with government power. The people have allowed the government to violate the 4th amendment via the USA PATRIOT Act and subsequent Acts. The main threats do not come from private corps. They come from our own governments. Governments buy information and tech from corps. If we insist that the govt must get a warrant first, then the market for this tech dries up.

Spying. It emerged out of distrust, animosity. How do you end it? End the conflict.
What conflict? The broadening inequality locally and around the world.
What’s needed is Department of Peace, Sustainability, and Coexistence.

Worldwide people are reporting extreme torture/experimentation with microwave weapons and technology, organized social sobatge and gangstalking of the victims . All with full coöperation of authorities, universities and the medical world. NOBODY in the mainstream media is reporting on this while this is a very worrying evolution that is scaling up to the point of global activism against it. Activism that is completely ignored by the way. In the best case victims are portrait as mentaly ill due to the evasiveness of the high tech programs that are very hard to proof. Are these the first signs of technological disruption? Or are we moving towards a society in witch a substantial part of the population has to accept a life as a guinea pig for the microwave industry…where are the docu’s and ted talks on these human rights violations? Hoping to see something like that!

After this I’m really sure that the World has to get ready for a third world war and this one is going to be the last where everything is going to turn back to its first condition it looks like our beautiful world has come to an end and as long as this world doesn’t want to come together and get along to make the biggest revelation to save itself it will absolutely have to be destroyed because the people who think that they’re able to make one Government are really wrong about that
