An article on Infowars reports: “New street lights that include Homeland Security applications including speaker systems, motion sensors and video surveillance are now being rolled out with the aid of government funding.
The Intellistreets system comprises of a wireless digital infrastructure that allows street lights to be controlled remotely by means of a ubiquitous wi-fi link and a miniature computer housed inside each street light, allowing for security, energy management, data harvesting and digital media, according to the Illuminating Concepts website.” “According to the company’s YouTube video of the concept, the primary capabilities of the devices include energy conservation, homeland security, public safety, traffic control, advertising, video surveillance.” We seem to be rapidly marching into the world of the surveillance state. While it may make it easier to solve crimes with omnipresent cameras in every streetlight, do we want our government watching us from the moment we step out our front doors? Even more sinister is the idea of microphones with government bureaucrats listening to our personal conversations. This at least should convince people to resist any sort of “hate speech” law. Imagine some fat Black woman sitting in a government office listening for any unflattering remark about illegal aliens. Add to all this, computer software that can read your license plate number or facial recognition software that can connect your name to your face anywhere in public. What does this all this mean? It means we need to get serious about putting an end to the as the two-party system. |

This is really over the top. As it is, the average American is ALREADY being filmed or photographed an average of 75 times per day.

If the 'government bureaucrats' were really that interested, they already have something much more efficient for the purpose. It's called 'Facebook'. Or, like this dialogue from the tee vee show Dead Like Me: George Lass: You ****! You're sending me to Hell?" Rube The Grim Reaper: Don't flatter yourself, you're not that interesting. -Kerry O. |

I really expect NO privacy in public areas, so it doesnt really bother me. In the privacy of my home is a different matter,,, |
