all this proposed internet censorship - info collecting on what we look at - who we contact etc etc - will this lead to a return to AR as a more private way of contacting friends and others around the world ??

for myself "when " ( note i do not say IF ) this comes in , and our lot are at it as well :rolleyes:( i personally object to the likes of microspy and googly eyes - passing what i research or who i contact on to "government " - all in the "faux " name of the WOT :rolleyes: - after all what "threat " am I to world security ?? - what are they going to DO with the information that i talk to all the rest of you on the zed - or research the best way to cram a 7 mhz antenna into a postage stamp plot ?? ) -I will be using the net a LOT less ( please don't all cheer at once ) - and forums will be one of the things that will probably go ( you may cheer now .lol )

i will still USE the net to pay bills and order my shopping but other than that ........................................:confused:

so will you be lessening your use of it ?? - and maybe using AR more - or dont you care that our information is being controlled by big business and "government " and that the wonderful resource of the net for research - is under the watchful eye of people whom we can not control and bring to account ??

discuss .;)

I haven't heard this proposal. I think our CIA probably already copies everything from the Internet, and has a stadium full of agents someplace analyzing it. I try not to let it bother me...

So, who's going to volunteer for the first colonoscopy on 40m SSTV? It would be the next logical step given how some already show 'their moon' on certain segments of that phone band.

And you don't think they monitor every frequency that can be used for communication today? They have been doing it here for a long time well before 9/11 but really stepped it up since then. The sale of really high end receivers from the suppliers have been sold to mostly all goverment agencys.

Some politicians careers will end, either at the ballot box or if they are really insistent about it, then by investigation and exposure.

Internet freedom, in this age, is the "sniff test" for how well our other freedoms are holding out.

Anybody who attacks your internet freedom is also attacking every other freedom that you might currently enjoy.

If you keep this in mind while dealing with them, then you won't feel so bad afterward about whatever you wind up having to do in order to remove them from any position of authority.

My feeling is that if they wanted to have a political career in a free country, then they should have been ready to protect, not attack our freedoms.

I feel sorry for Europeans, who have let the multiculturalism/socialism crap completely take over. - Those folks will have to spill some blood in order to get their freedom back, if they ever do. Here in the US, it hasn't progressed so far as to preclude a ballot-box fix.

So far.

They (int agencies around the world) pretty much just record the rf spectrum and can search it at their leisure. Shouldn't expect any privacy when broadcasting anyway.

A bigger threat is actually using Amateur Radio and being cyberstalked by other ham radio operators.

Whats new about it ?

They have been doing it for sometime now.

Have you looked at the new Acceptance and Privacy Policy that you have agreed to lately ?

They just want a law on the books.

Facebook is a good example of how they slipped it in, with many unknowing, And Google too.
