PAYNE: Cloud of Suspicion Threatens the 4th Amendment

Stopping at a red light prevents accidents. Subsidizing local law enforcement with federal grants for Flock cameras to take your picture, record your license plate, and automatically send it to the cloud may cause more trouble than an accident. Flock technology gathers information about law-abiding citizens and the criminal-minded alike and lumps them together in … Read more

Morning Update: I Spy ‘Bipartisan’ Outcry?

Today, in the morning update, anti-Flock outrage has become bipartisan, but for entirely different reasons. People on the right want privacy and protections from the capricious surveillance state, while people on the left…don’t want the Feds, or local police, seeing or finding their criminals, foreign or domestic. Watch on the ‘Grok Rumble Channel if the … Read more

MCMAKEN: The High Cost of the Automated Flock-Camera Surveillance State

Flock cameras and the online surveillance network behind them offer many ways for law enforcement officials and other government bureaucrats to abuse their access to information about taxpayers’ personal lives.  For example, a Kentucky police officer has been caught using the surveillance network to stalk women. Another officer in Massachusetts has been accused of using Flock cameras to … Read more

MACDONALD: Massholes Embrace the De-Flocking Movement

The flock situation has certainly gotten out of hand in both directions. The deployment and abuse, as well as the reaction to both. But it can’t be all that surprising. Most of this activity occurs at the municipal level, and 70% of voters are inclined to let 25-30% decide everything. Guess why your taxes suck, … Read more

OPINION: The Right to Be Left Alone

The rapid spread of public surveillance cameras represents something far more consequential than a new piece of police technology. It represents a fundamental change in the relationship between the individual and the state. These cameras allow government agents to record, identify, catalog and retroactively track the movements of people who have committed no crime, are … Read more

PAYNE: The Other “AI”

Everyone knows that “AI” stands for “Artificial Intelligence,” but not everyone knows that the power that controls it victimizes because of another type of AI: automatic ignorance. We should not look at all the good it can do and ignore its potential for evil, nor ignore the morality of those who seek to gain control … Read more

MACDONALD: Dems Suddenly Hate Surveillance?

Democrats don’t hate the police, and they love surveillance. Their dystopian socialist utopia is impossible without both. They don’t hate guns either, just guns that might interfere with their militarized police state. So, the whole defund the police thing was a smoke screen. It wasn’t about bad cops or systemic racism; it was an excuse … Read more

MACDONALD: House Cleaning

I don’t think we’re likely to escape accusations of political targeting as the default response to any investigation of anyone “on the other side.” We can note that Obama really got this ball rolling when he began targeting businesses in his first term, and his IRS went into Hitler mode to stop Tea Party groups … Read more

Morning Update: “What the Flock!”

Today, on the morning update, with Dems all uppity about body-worn cameras (they demanded) and privacy, it seemed like a good time to ask about the growing Flock “Safety” Camera surveillance state.

OPINION: Has Orwell’s 1984 Become Reality?

To some readers it may seem like a rhetorical question to ask whether the narrative of George Orwell’s dystopian novel, Nineteen Eighty-Four (or 1984), first published in Britain in 1949, has somehow left its pages and settled, like an ominous miasma, over the contours of social reality. Yet, closer inspection – which means avoiding compromised mainstream news outlets … Read more

MACDONALD: Exponentially Worse Than Watergate

The recent revelation that Uncle Joe Biden’s Administration, which is to say whoever was running the Biden Administration, was spying on Republicans in Congress should not surprise. It might be a big deal, but it isn’t a new one. Joe’s mentor, Barry Obama, spied on members of Congress, the Media, our supposed allies, and, of … Read more

ADAM DICK: The People Score Two Victories Against Automated License Plate Readers

Eleven years back, John W. Whitehead warned in his weekly column about the danger from government’s proliferating use of automated license plate readers across America. Whitehead included these devices among the tools being employed in the construction of what he termed an “electronic concentration camp.” This “electronic concentration camp,” wrote Whitehead, “as I have dubbed the surveillance … Read more

The Bidenistas Massive Domestic Spying Scheme Exposed

Spying on Americans was never in doubt, but the Obama Administration weaponized the government and numerous intelligence agencies to do so domestically. Obama spied on everyone. Our allies, Congress, the Press that loved him, and you and I. This expanded into the censorship industrial complex, which employed spying to selectively locate and silence opinions the … Read more

The Surveillance State Is Making a List, and You’re On It

You’d better watch out—you’d better not pout—you’d better not cry—‘cos I’m telling you why: this Christmas, it’s the Surveillance State that’s making a list and checking it twice, and it won’t matter whether you’ve been bad or good. You’ll be on this list whether you like it or not. Mass surveillance is the Deep State’s version of … Read more
