[Corpora-List] Hacked email accounts

[Krishnamurthy, Ramesh]

I don't have a mobile phone - not to prevent anyone knowing

my location at all times... but I am aware of that aspect.



However, I too have a strange event to recount. In 1991, I went

to Buckingham Palace to receive a prize on behalf of Cobuild. Although

I knew it was probably against regulations, I took photos of the inner

courtyard, and a corridor with some extremely valuable paintings. At

the cloakroom, I was asked to leave my raincoat and my briefcase (which

now contained my camera). A few days later, I got the roll of film developed

at a local chemists in Birmingham. The prints came back, but the final photo

in the set was of the outer courtyard. Neither the negatives, nor the sheet

of 'thumbnail' prints, contained any blank items... they had somehow been

selectively deleted....



best

> Yes, cops (euphemistically known as law enforcement officials) have access to everything.
~
 They have not only access to -every freaking thing-, but they also
monitor and classify  everything as well. Like this conversation they
are monitoring live and real-time and at some point may start messing
with it ;-) (believe me, as odd as it sounds, at some point you start
to enjoy it somewhat, you even kind of somatize it (no, you don't go
crazy because of this))
~
 They do and they abuse it big time too in order to, as you very well
put it, "euphemistically enforce laws". I grew up in a daylight
dictatorship (as part of a family of hard chore dissidents and
misfits) and went to school in communist Germany one of the most
amazing things I have seen about people in the states is how stupidly
naive they are and how their naivity keeps their own government on
welfare. I don't quite get it and it is hard to explain but other
people have told me they see it as some sort of "consciousness
welfare" ;-) that is so, but so easily!!! fed into people's minds
here. That is why Bradley Manning is kept in prison, is not
"patriotic", a not "hero", ...
~
> I went to a Verizon
~
 It is not only Verizon. During NYNEX times I could actually hear
(impedance change in the sound) how recorders would go off when I was
going to say over the phone certain types of information like
addresses and telephone numbers. I would some times do it on purpose
to show my friends ;-) or if I play music in the background (so their
devices can not follow the conversation very well) the communication
is dropped ... every time people call me for the first time (from a
"new"/"unregistered" telephone number) they can't communicate (my
girlfriend repeatedly tried this and similar other things and at some
point told me "I am affraid")
~
> ... my stepdaughter's address and all her previous addresses in states where she had lived
~
 That may be -most probably- a technical mishap, but the other FB
account incident doesn't seem to be a random technical mishap. The
thing is that technical matters smell very differently than "Bill
Louw" kinds of things and technical things can be -very clearly-
narrowed down ultimately to Physics.
~
> I never meant to imply that any government agency was involved with the transfer of data from my old phone (a not-so-old phone) to the new iPhone. I was merely thinking along the lines that there might be software that identifies (and saves) information (phone #s, addresses, license plates) belonging to individuals ...
~
 To -ANY- individuals. And they stratify in various ways and monitor
this data real-time. Just as an example, many people have no idea that
by carrying a cell phone they are constantly beaming their location
with centimetric precision. Governments some time ago used to make
parolees and offenders wear such devices. People now happily carry
them ;-) and ALL communication agencies of any kind participate in
this from your postal office to your ISP/phone company. Of course,
this is not only technical devices, they have also turned into
snitching cells from every barbershop to University Departments. Some
of us, I am sure, are "helping" them with software too ( "snitching
corpora" ;-)), at least some people make money out of this nonsense.
~
 One of the many illusions that people like to entertain is that they
use this information to fight criminals ..., but most people don't
even start to suspect to the extent they abuse it.
~
 I myself don't carry a cell phone, don't read printed "lies" aka
newspapers, don't even own a TV set, don't have a FB account, walk to
work 8 Kms each way, ... I don't see it as some far fetched idea that
one day big brother wants for every one to carry beaming tags in the
name of "patriotism", in order to fight "terrorism" and all of that in
fact they may be carrying them and may not even be aware of it
~
 truth and peace and love
