In Wired.com’s Threat Level, David Kravets details 9 reason’s you may want to be a bit Paranoid these days.
From Warrant-less GPS tracking and Wiretapping to Fake cell phone towers. It’s nearly enough to make you go out run and get a tinfoil hat. Certainly as government grows and technology grows the ability to track and know where one’s populous is becomes easier and easier.
Our Bill of Rights in this country does now allow for Freedom of Privacy. Maybe it is indeed time to get that added to it. I don’t think our founding fathers ever thought about this one when they wrote it.
The fear of Big Brother watching may become over shadowed as Big Industry is also and has been watching even longer. Now as they track your cell phones in the Malls and target you with AD’s via free Apps.
The government is just now doing what those in industry have been doing for a long time now. Now they seize laptops and put trackers on cars, use Satellites to peer into our lives more and more, and we all say it’s OK. Because they are making sure we are Safe.
Who however watches the watchers? This is the real question we should be asking. Just how safe are you when the watcher becomes the problem or the one your not safe from. Paranoid now? Just something to get you thinking.
