Complete video at: fora.tv Artist and author Trevor Paglen describes what he claims to be a San Francisco-based National Security administration “black site” used to monitor telecommunications. —– A Roundtable Discussion of Agency in Surveilled Space: who is watching, who is being watched, who decides which spaces are visible to the camera and which are effectively invisible, off-limits to authorities. The panelists will examine how engineers, artists, and activists intervene in surveillance systems to subvert, invert, and redefine these relationships, and how the principle of “sousveillance” – meaning surveillance from “below,” or watching the watchers – applies. It features artists and engineers who collaborate to produce software and hardware applications that access and visualize data usually obscured from public view; artists whose projects have questioned the rhetoric of surveillance by intervening more playfully in the expected aesthetics or power dynamics; and activists who monitor post-9/11 surveillance by intelligence agencies and its effects on immigrant and dissenting communities – The New School Trevor Paglen is an artist, writer, and experimental geographer working out of the Department of Geography at the University of California, Berkeley. His work involves deliberately blurring the lines between social science, contemporary art, and a host of even more obscure disciplines in order to construct unfamiliar, yet meticulously researched ways to interpret …
“they gotta protect us…that’s their job.”
Really?
Protecting us is what they say their job is, but if you’ve done any research on the US Intelligence Community you know that ‘Protecting Us’ actually makes up a very small part of what they spend billions of dollars a year on.
ISPs and Telcos are required under CALEA to have interception equipment/scenarios in place to capture traffic or wiretap upon court-ordered investigations. This is nothing new. Every ISP and Telco in the USA has this type of equipment in place per federal CALEA laws. This is not a bad thing. The equipment is only used should there be a CALEA intercept request from law enforcement. (very, very rare).
I work for a Telco/ISP.
I see CALEA as a major problem and a bad thing. Basically everything is “wiretapped” and even tho they say no one ever listens someone could listen when ever they want. My guess is they only request the information when they wanna use it in a trial.
the main thing the NSA is concerned about other than general terrorism activities is the UFO coverup.
sounds crazy but its true
Of course NSA is watching, but I wish they would watch the contractors they have watching us, I think somebody forgot that contractors watch the bottom line only and not the rule of law. I still think we are the good guys, but NSA what about the rule of law for US citizens??? Will you let them put a terror label on us without watching the databases and the watchers themselves? We are the ones you promised to protect. What about us?
what do you mean a ufo cover up. if its credible can you explain?
i mean exactly what I said. There is an active effort to not reveal the reality of our our place in the local social planetary order.
Don’t think so? Well, just meditate on the simple reality that this planet has been reflecting blue-green light – the signature of life for several thousand million years.
Do you honestly think this has gone unnoticed. I didn’t think so.
cheers
If you had 100 people in a room who saw a UFO, if they would go the the NSA or any other intelligence services for answers you’d get about 3 people.
American do NOT trust the intelligence services. I don’t trust them, and neither should you.
KABLAMO! i GOT AN iDEA!
Lets stop, as a people, people, being mindless and continuing to play their game! Simple as that but I understand not so easy since we run our lives on negativity and all of its consumables. These malevolent beings use negative energy and euphoria as food. STOP- eating fast food, smoking, exessive alcohol(hangovers suck anyway), and believe it or not, drinking the flouridated water.
i often ponder to my astonishment, what the outcome of world war two would have been like if the Japanese had an NSA program and learned of the USA nuclear bomb test at Los alamos. The surrender terms would have been much more favorable before the atomic bombs were dropped thus sparing mankind the senseless loss of life. Information provides transparency. the only evil that can come from information is not acting
on information to the demise of your citizens
I bet we’re all fucked if we click on this video…
hahaha
So your rational is that this plant has be shown to have life on it millions of years?
That doesn’t prove that alien life is real what so ever!
You really just are a nugget arn’t you!
Bull shit… they are always watching, always!
They protect from “enimies” forign and domestic… it’s just “their” enimies… which would be you or any other “dissenter”!
That’s complete bollox my friend!
Seriously? You are obviously not a domestic US citizen. You are an Asian person right?
Not a problem. The fact that you are posting here means that there is hope for you.
To answer you question, yes, there is a deadly serious UFO coverup underway.
Those who think they are patriots are traitors. Those who think they know, do not know.
Those like you and I who know they do NOT know, well, they are the ones who know.
I means exactly what I said. This planet reflects trillions of watts each day into the galaxy, into the universe.
We know that the laws of physics, chemistry and biology are universal.
There are an estimated 200 billion galaxies, each with at least 100 billion stars, – probably an equal amount of life friendly planets.
Only a complete solipsist would think that we have NOT been discovered.
yeah, you caught me. i’m logging your IP address right now. We’re willing to let you join our secret network if you just sign here…
And to think I used to ride skateboards with him, when we both lived in Germany. Kudos Trevor!
Wat if someone walked in there with wire cutters
9-11 WAS AN INSIDE JOB!!
i’m with “MyRealityIsMine “, anyone who watches this is now on their list……SHIT!!
Im an American. I understand that the NSA wants to protect our Nation Security Infrastructure, but they go too far. Do you guys realize that EVERYTHING you do over the internet is booked,logged and watched by them? They monitor EVERYTHING we say or do, this may just be me but i say invasion of ones privacy is coming into play here. fuck them. they think just bc they have these job titles they can do whatever the fuck they wish. in all seriousnss. i really would like to go there, and blow it up.
the staes is a capatalist country so they have to protect all the corporate secrets and spy on the public for advertising targeting and for gaps in the market or disscusions about new technologies ,they try and catch every angle so as to make a buck from it or to stop someone else(china) from getting in there 1st
The Black World infrastructure has become a greedy Frankenstein, eating taxpayer money and stomping out any semblance of U.S. democracy and civil liberties, all in the name protecting us from “terrorism”. The founding fathers would be well past appalled at the things our secret government rationalizes and does. Who is overseeing these monsters? Granted, some of their many tentacles are keeping an eye on terrorists, but surely, they see supporters of oversight as the enemy. I weep for democracy.
