One of the greatest Surveillance Systems today is “Googleâ€...they track everything you do and where you go...and very cozy with this administration. Further they control the information they give you. Most people never use www. etc....they simply “Google everything. Anything you put on-line is tracked already....if you’ve ever used a tracking block you quickly see who the culprits are..and Google is one of the biggest offenders.
We are just barely adapting culturally to 1990 technology.
Remember the movie Sneakers with Robert Redford. That was back in 1992 where the object of security was cryptology.
Since then we’re had 20 years of data mining. Data Mining was high tech for about 3-6 years.
The state of the art had far surpassed those ancient technologies.
I suspect few to none of us in this forum are even touching upon the real threats at hand.
