There are more spies then you think

in #news7 years ago

Do you know how many people are watching you at any given moment? Chances are there are more then you think.

That is especially true for the US, where the terror hysteria has led to a police-state like surveillance of the citizen, even while terrorism is one of the very low entries on the list of causes of death. In fact anti-terror kills.

But still this the surveillance gets ever more wider and deeper.

Investigative website Buzzfeed now looked into how much planes might spy on you, before they get exchanged with drones and the spying hundredfolds.

They trained an AI and used Big Data approach to analyze flight behavior of airplanes. What they found is astounding - it seems like everybody is flying around to look down on you!

This includes a number of company airplanes that belong to either contractors or post box companies that are just hiding places for FBI&Co.

Of course most of the institutions detected don't want to be openly discussed. So they often have cover stories. Sometimes they are good, sometimes they are like this:

...said the plane had been watching harbor porpoises. It was a pilot project for planned studies of the endangered vaquita — the world’s rarest marine mammal, found only in the northern reaches of Mexico’s Gulf of California — Kisfaludy said.
Buzzfeed News verified that SciFly was collaborating with the Marine Mammal Center, just north of San Francisco, on the porpoise project. But the center said that the dates didn’t match, and Kisfaludy’s explanation for these particular flights didn’t make much sense, as most of the circling was over land.

Must be a new branch of evolution, sea creatures roaming mainly on land.

Great post, thanks for sharing! I gave you a vote. I hope you enjoy it.

please stop posting the identical comment over and over, people will think it is spamming and downvote you.

This is very true. Basically, everything we do and post on the internet is monitored by someone. Facebook probably being the biggest one of all. Not sure about the outside world unless you are some kind of person of interest to somebody. It would be pointless and a waste of resources. At least, I hope so. lol

Interesting topic my friend. Very intriguing. :)

absolutely true :)

Be careful to use the services of the general generation men and women.
Friday afternoon, I came to the carrier counter of men, on the street mardeka (mon geudong, lhokseumawe). I asked for a mini bus travello to the airport kuala namu medan. "It's 8 o'clock," said the counter. "No. I want 10 o'clock" I replied.
In short, there was a dialogue and a car deal was reached to my address at 21:00 pm. And at around 21:20 pm, a starwagon type minibus came to my doorstep. "Is this a car?"
"Yes" the driver replied.
"Why L-300? .will not we (afternoon) we promise (car kia) travelo?".
"Ooo, my travelo car yes .. The car is damaged" the driver replied. Then, I know he was just a shuttle driver.
I went up and the car took me to the counter. To the counter, I asked again, why they did not keep their promise. But he disbelieved and denied it.
There was little debate, and he asked, "how?"
"I do not have time to look for other transportation. But oh, brother should not be like this," I protested.
Uncomfortably, I climbed into the starwagon (L-300).
But entering, Medan city, in spbu, the L-300 driver, asked me to move to a travello Car to continue the journey to the airport.
It is through this story that my belief increases, that the carriage of the son of men has deceived and betrayed his customers, me. "Mareka do not have a travello type car" said the driver who claimed not in lhokseumawe it.
I again remembered the reason the driver picked me up to the house, "ooo, ... my travello is broken"
While at the booth they say "indeed from the beginning of starwagon car". The counter clerk forgot that we had bargained for departure time for travello, not for starwagon.
Be careful to use the transport of men and women ... because they are not responsible.
