Police departments deploy their own judge to serve solely for granting warrants and many times they use the warranty before it was signed off. All they do is call the judge and get a verbal warrant. The warrant process is a joke.
Not having control of your information makes you vulnerable to become a VICTIM of crime. It's not about protecting criminals - it is about protecting ourselves from being victims.
@@swine13 I agree, pretty much it's game over already. Just look at how many TI we have already. It's ridiculous. It's sad. We bragged all the time about how free a country we are. But that's only an illusion.
We're already victims of the biggest criminal: the fascist, corporatist, government intertwined with big corporations. We lost already thanks to the human cattle around us who are really happy about it
Companies could simply escape warrant requests if they simply didn't store user data AND if the software was encrypted and the company didn't have access to the encryption. Yes there are companies like this for email and TOR browser.
very coherent, and well researched. I would recommend a listen. I understand it's long, but by all means feel free to jump around a little bit. There are several different speakers and they present on related topics in a way that each one of their talks is relevant in itself. And if you have a moment please consider spreading the word by liking / subscribing / commenting / and most importantly sharing. Have a great day everyone.
I only use a burner cell with a SIM, my smartphones have no SIMs or personal data stored on any cell. My employer uses a communications management computer where all calls / SMS share common numbers. Incoming landline calls use TouchTone to select a mobile user, whilst incoming cell users can dial direct and the receiving cell can also dial out through the system. We can change SIMs in our cells and the comms computer is re-programmed to direct calls to the new number. We also use satellite pagers so there is no association between cell numbers and pagers. We only need one pager number as all our pagers use the same number and all receive the data.
I find 2 main points here that jumped out at me here, 1 the government feels when you share something with a 3rd party system / company you no longer have rights to privacy of it so its free to be collected, which it should really depend on the type of information, so anything you share with a 3rd party that you intended would be free information of other citizens (users) then yes thats freely open and un-private (so say for example you post a comment or info on facebook, even if its just for your friends from the account thats 1 thing), but when its an operation the device or 3rd party performs without the common users knowledge (location) and is not accessible to the other citizens (users) publicly, then it should be considered a right to privacy (so your passwords and any information thats between you and the 3rd party, so pretty much everything in your emails since your the only one that see's them) just like if you we're to go to a lawyers office and give him some files or your Last Will to hold with the stipulation only you and him would know the infomation and see it, then would you not expect the right to privacy with that 3rd party? of course the 3rd party email or device company would have to have in its agreement the info is between you and them to really seal the deal cuz now they may say it can provide the info if it wants to, but everyone signs up for it cuz they dont read any contract. and point 2 was that warrants are done by a judge and the prosecutor, there should also be a jury panel just like in criminal cases since the idea is that the warrant is being ceased by the law enforcement agency of the people of the state / US v. the person in question, so there should be a jury that hears the evidence the prosecution is going on to suggest a warrant but they leave out names and specifics, and they decide if they feel like its worth encroaching on this persons rights possibly because of the information that they may be violating the law, and the law is the law of the people so they enforce it ideally cuz we employ cops to do so for us the people, then the decision goes to the judge to declare the legality and if the lawyer could call a false warrant and kill the trial if they got anything in the search, then they get the warrant lol. or at least that made sense to me xD but a lot has probably changed since this vid and talk
What is even more disturbing, is a lot of companies have added clauses in their privacy policies within the last 3 or so years that basically waive all your rights to privacy in a really shady and vague way that suggests that any 3rd party can come and collect info about you. For example, check out this appalling one: "When you visit or use the Service, third parties may obtain information about you or your computer or device. These third parties may include: · Service Providers. We may use service providers to help us with the Service or any other lawful activity may do, including the other activities we describe under this Policy. This means service providers may collect, process, and store any of the information that we may collect under the Policy, and information collected in connection with the Service may be collected directly by our service providers. · Third Party Tracking and Online Advertising. We may permit third party ad networks, social media companies, and other third party services to collect information about you, your computer or device when you visit or use the Service. This information may be collected automatically, including through cookies, social media plug-ins, and other technologies" So basically "anyone can collect anything for whatever reason, whenever they want". Yeah, no thanks... 😬 Also, have a read of this article. I found it quite interesting: www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/06/12/opinion/facebook-google-privacy-policies.html
the problem , is not that you move around plenty, but that part of this data is you and your comments on this particular video. but hey keep thinking it's just someone else.
Why the fuck can't we elect a POTUS who will appoint an AG who is like "Hm, this seems shady, let's not do this," instead of "Fuck it, they'll have to prove it in court and we'll use their own money to fight it."
+foobargorch Democracy is the tyranny of the majority. It is two wolves and a sheep arguing over dinner plans. Plato called it the lowest form of government, literally: mob rule.
The Chopping Block well, what's better? at least with the current mess we we agree that nepotism, in breeding and oppressing minorities are bad, even though we keep doing them anyway. In the past nobody even bothered with the theatrics. That's progress in my book.
Data phone logs need to be dumped very regular. Laws should be passed to dump phone logs after so long of time and not wait years. The government only tells you what they want you to know. Remember this..
Your second point contradicts your first, government doesn't solve problems caused by government especially not limiting their own power. Technology must be the answer, carry a small pi and mobile wifi use tor ir i2p
Actually this is happening mostly with US gov. Like in Europe (and most other countries) your privacy is 100% secure because of the law. But with recent laws, US gov agencies now can legally act outside US, so rip freedom. And news about german sec agencies selling info to muricans for software renting (!!!!!) are really disturbing
even in europe, they circumvented the laws in FR, UK, and GER. They even invented new surveilance "anti terrorism" laws to remove privacy and let police monitor everything thats unencrypted
Canada has a lot of the same issues wrt this as the us does. In fact, Canada is actually worse when it comes to crypto as they can legally force you to give up your passwords.
It's actually pretty widely known, now, that even BEFORE the P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Atrocity...I mean Act...that (when it was still ILLEGAL to spy on Americans within America's borders) all the NSA/CIA/etc. would do is get the information from the UK, Canada, New Zealand, Australia on U.S. citizens...and we would provide THEM with the information on THEIR citizens. This is easily one of THE BEST "loopholes" in law that I've ever seen..."OK, well WE can't spy on Americans but GCHQ can, and GCHQ can't spy on UK citezens but WE can...HMMMM, I have an idea!!! How 'bout we just TRADE information?!" GOOD IDEA, PETE!! And thus, it began. Also, most people don't know that the NSA and all those other spy organizations had been spying on Americans for several years PRIOR to 9/11 even though it was 100% ILLEGAL. Call me a "Conspiracy Theorist" all you want, all day long; it doesn't change the FACT that 9/11 did *NOT* happen the way we are told it did and in the way the GUBMINT and MSM allege it did. The SCIENCE is out there. The whistleblowers are out there...so, the point I am trying to make is that "A New Pearl Harbor" was needed to accomplish certain goals otherwise Americans would NEVER go for them...ONE of those things being the COMPLETE DEMOLITION of the U.S. Constitution by the P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Atrocity I mean Act. The GUBMINT has been like a 12 year old boy looking at naked ladies in its desire for a TOTAL INFORMATION POLICE STATE...Just look at what they are focused on at THIS time!! GUNS. They KNOW that in order to fully implement their grand scheme that they MUST disarm Americans. Once THAT goal is accomplished the plan will be nearly complete and the things that aren't complete will be pushed through like a hot knife through butter because Americans will no longer have the ability to rebel. I want to make it 100% COMPLETELY CLEAR, RIGHT HERE, that I DO *NOT* ADVOCATE VIOLENCE BEING USED IN A REVOLUTION!! I believe wholeheartedly that we CAN rise up as a people, united, and simply vote these people OUT OF OFFICE. All it takes is to get people EDUCATED, but there MUST be PROOF (Science, Whistleblowers, etc.) It's happening, people ARE waking up to what's going on, thankfully. Sadly, though, what's going on is SO *INCREDIBLY* COMPLEX and THEY HAVE THE PATIENCE to carry out the complete dissolution of the Constitution over time. Think, if you will, of the frog in the pot. The frog is happy in a pot full of cool water. Turn up the heat slowly and the frog doesn't even notice until he's been boiled alive. THAT, friends, is what is going on. Their plans have been slowly being implemented, part by part, piece by piece, and NOBODY PAYS ATTENTION. Now, we're on the edge of the cliff and we are near a point where once the line is crossed, there is no possibility to recover. Make no mistake, they are playing "The Long Game" and if we don't unite, FAST, we are DOOMED. This means no more Democrat vs. Republican, Liberal vs. Conservative, Black vs. White, Muslim vs. Christian....WE *ALL* need to put this CRAP aside and UNITE AS *AMERICANS* and STOP this before it's too late. THEN we can address the divisions of today.
Are you kidding? If you say something wrong about muslims in say the UK or Germany, you should definitely expect a visit from the thought police. Literally have divisions for the internet. No privacy whatsoever.
i agree that this is a real problem that google /fb/and countless of other apps and companies profile and track for their own reasons not our ..good job
By using "Buttsniff", "SNORT" or other port scanner will orient you to tracking...For beginners..It will tell you what country and city a hacker is sending data from... A world map is used for the display.. The scanners are to be advanced...
sacrificing the part of your freedom to protect the rest part of your freedom is always a bad idea - in the end you will have no freedom and no protection.
As they said in the talk, for the actual carriers, this often will not matter, the antena you are connecting from already reveals a lot of information about your location. They don't really need your GPS info. If you use dumb phones, you could potentially try to circumvent by having multiple prepaid sims and phones and only use one at any time, mixing them up every now and then(or if you have money enough for multiple smartphones).
Thank you for the advide but I already encountered that kind of malware and also managed to get rid of it too. Some of my friends had it on their computers.- So far I never experienced it on any of my computers. Not even my webserver. But Thank you anyway for your concern.
Last night Google updated their policy and I had to re-disable all the location tracking, voice data, etc. I noticed although I've done this in the past location data has been on in my account the past 8 months. Not cool, Google.
Ok to answer your question - Yes I have some things that I feel is delicate and should be for me only and you can rest asure that what ever have is kept safe so no one in the world can get hold of it as I keep it all off the computer hence off the internet access. I believe that if anyone have embarrasing stuff and they have any of that stuff public I think they have chosen to do that on their own. If they did that I think maybe they should have given it an extra thought before going public.
Yeah - maybe - So far I haven't had any reason to be afraid of any of that - Possibly because I never thought of making my embarrassing stuff public - like in youtube, google or for that matter Facebook or any other forum I might be participating in. You see - I am deciding what I want people to know. I don't publish everything I do in a blog or forum so in that context - I don't get to be too much of a Prey as you call it. I have more life outside the internet than inside.
Also the rules of the communities state that what ever you make public is no longer your property but the community website's property. Maybe nobody reads the rules of their community? I don't know - I just know I am glad I do read the rules. Many people also let the community use their other login information so the community can invite your friends and what may be likely - sell the login info to 3rd parties to get more money. I am the only person who is to use my passwords, not a community!
.. continued - Since I experience some attaco on my opinions I think it is possible that either I'm getting too close to the truth or maybe even right on the spot and someone just felt touched and so I'm attacked. If someone have something to hide - Maybe it's not a good idea to start an attack.
Hello there. I agree that it is nothing about having something to hide or not and still it might be. You see - It is about whether or not the information you put online can contain any liability to hurt you or not. In other words - Simple things that anyone around you alrady know about you is not really liable to hurt you. At least not if you are using decent behavior. If you have a strong opinion about ysomething - Well yes it is possible that it may come back to hurt you. ..Continued...
4TH amendment TO BE SAFE IN YOUR PERSON.... that means i can be safe no matter where i travel, that judge got bought and his statements toward illegal searches being legal is proof!! everyone party to this decision should all be fired!!
I know this is 7 years old, but you don't happen to know any good, free resources for learning that kind of chip electronics online, do you? Im curious to understand the tech better but I dont know where to start
Many people are using almost all their time on the internet in a community like facebook and facebook are planting tracking cookies that track what people are doing on other sites while they have their facebook open. I do use facebook - just a little - about 1-2 times per month. "I have a life outside facebook" When I am not using facebook I close the internet window so the facebook cookie can't track my other browsing which again means - I still decide what is public. I suggest everyone do it.
Somehow Facebook Knows I Went to the Princeton Gun Range Recently. As Proud as I am of Being Well Regulated in Firearms Use, I am Done Carrying a Tracking Device! :)
The WWW was "invented" in the early 1940s, it was developed through 1997 when the first browser was developed along with HTML, that's when most people started using the Internet, 60 years after it was created/invented.
Apparently Microsoft's abuse team discovered that my findings were correct - So - Maybe I'm not that oblivious to what is going on after all. - Who knows?!?
Sure thing - Got one too. The stuff here was in relation to the tracking stuff then someone regarded it as a personal issue and started attacking me and so I felt a need to defend my opinion. I may not be agreeing with most people but I do have an opinion and I dare to stick to my opinion no matter what anyone say or think. My opinion is still - If you are not hiding something illegal then you don't need to worry about any surveillance that may be going on. If they can't find anything no charge!
@@butteredtoast8666 Hello there, This comment was up for about 7 years and you are the first to comment on my comment. In the passed time I haven't changed my mind at all, it has actually been strengthened. RFCs are in different forms: - Request For Comments. - RFC as a set of given rules for e.g. a protocol. I'm not exactly sure which of them you are referring to but this message is my RFC to you. I wonder if it answers your question?!? One thing is surveillance, another thing is hacking and in the question of hacking I am totally against it and some hackers have already found out that I mean business about that. I track their attacking IP, which may be a system that has been hacked, but then the SysAdmins will be notified about their system being compromised. So on hacking I'm doing my own RFC: I want to tell the hackers how perfect they are at failing their mission, well at least when they try to attack my personal system.
I guess I must have pissed someone off - Almost just like I'm pissing someone off in here - Right Wesley. From Wesley's comment it looks like I touched (for him) a sensitive area. If you think of it - Not all attacks are DDoS right?!? I'm not a hacker myself but I am trying to learn from what I experience so I can Protect against it and that goes for Surveillance too.
Of course - Installing a trojan or backdoor is a possibility but then it is also somewhat unlikely because when I download anything I intend to install I start with just download it then wait about a week's time for the antivirus that updates and scans every day to catch it. Then when the week is over I install it. So that possibility is somewhat diminished. About facebook cookies - I know that too - and you are right - at least most of it. Usually I consider all kinds of Toolbars to be spyware
For example, LAPD has a server routing all of their data (your data and every bit of smart data that they collect and monitor) funneling through a server routed through a foreign country (guess which country)
Canada quite likely, even calls that the USA doesn't have, or can't get warrants for, get routed through Canada, and the Canadian government IS a "confidential informant". Canada is the US government's puppet in many regards.
If you are concerned about the insecurities with google having infrastructure to push applications to remote devices, search for issue 36163 on the android bug tracker and star it.
4th amendment protects all personal property!!!! if you bought it and have a receipt its personal!!.... that includes location, phone numbers, pictures the whole thing!!
A gps device is old school . Today’s instant data analysis check allows instant history and events as well as document graphic daily events that one just has to press a search . The computers are always collecting for that instant request for a search. Do it’s just a instant human collection. From a computer that is always full data all cameras and voice no matter who has ownership or write it is located. So collection data is not acceptable for court . But it is being used to pressure local enforcement to do heavy violation of laws to allow further data to be used without awareness of how other data was collected or even if it was on other devices . No freedom or privacy with contractors using to help develop smart data to hide the ability of law to do what they can’t do. And pay well as they use all other collection devices for full collection snd tracking with non standard computer systems developers for government agency’s That allows a hidden world of data for instant use with very high level of graphics and data display for instant request. All data is fully computerized analysis and ready 24 7 faster than one can blink with Data so powerful that one can not even be allowed to see his own data as it is not mentally acceptable display that one can just walk away and know a computer truly may as well be them as it’s collected much fuller and accurate than even a human with photo Memory recognition could come close to being able to be so fully exposed for as long as one has lived in many cases . Yet we have computer attacks how can we spend so much and yet have the wrong strengths to protect our nation .
Welp, if I'm ever kidnapped and murdered at least my digital footprint will still be there to hopefully help law enforcement. At the same time, a criminal could use it against me.
Well - I am aware of the potential consequenses ever since I made it public about 17 years ago and I have been expecting something to happen but so far nothing bad has happened well almost nothing - Some attacks on my site or the computer I use but otherwise nothing and all the time it withstood the challenges and still does - the only real bad insidence was the one with microsoft's hacker who couldn't leave the hacking off the work - I'm guessing it was a script kiddie. Thanks for the concern
No they didn't tell me directly but in the newsflash on the radio they pinpointed that the person that was fired was working on the development og MSN and that he had actively been discovered while he was hacking someone. Does that count?!? And about hacking - Maybe I don't know all the details about hacking and the massiveness of an attack but then why did the attack start within 1 hour after I closed the backdoor and why did the attack last day and night for full 3 days?!? Anyone know that?
Well I'm guessing it was a bot net - It happened with 2-3 server requests per second (about 10000 per hour) - from loads of different ip's - I think I may have a good reason to think it was a bot net - A single attacker is usually using 1 ip and usually it's FTP attacks
With all of the benefits that commercial entities reap from customers using their devices, it's a wonder that the end user still has to pay for the usage.
And the question is: If you have nothing to hide, and you are not a criminal, so what if the government has this location information and any other type of information for that matter?
I wouldn't let some government stranger march into my home and start digging through everything regardless if I didnt do anything and have nothing to hide. I'll treat my mobile devices the same way. No one but me needs to looks through my data and see my GPS where abouts.
Facebook will track you even if you are not logged in... If you've ever logged in to FB and the cookie associated with your user is still present, they know who you are and track what pages you visit every time there's a "Like" button on any page, or anything other FB plugin sourced from their servers.
It seems that alot of people are cool with this :/ in the name that there not criminals im not either but I wouldnt hand my phone to someone and let them collect data just purely invasive goes against laws if you know them.
It's funny that the "What They Know" data is hosted on Wall Street Journal.. Which has 25+ trackers it sends data to as soon as you load the page. C'mon guys, seriously?
... The INCOMING IP came from a computer which I tracked to be in the MSN Development Block so I reported the incident to Microsofts Abuse department and sure enough where I described what I experienced and that I had tracked the IP to the specific computer in the Microsoft block. I checked it by noting the IP's before and after the disabling LoadQM and when I enabled it again it continued so I'm sure it was from there. A few months later in the news there was a message about the hacker. ...
I hate what our gov't is doing, however, at the end of the day there is a big difference between the police sneaking onto my property and sticking a GPS to my car and my agreeing to pay money to them for this cool GPS receiver that I'll carry in my pocket. What I do disagree with, is the fact that if I want to turn off that tracking I don't have the ability to do it, other than turning the phone off and not using it.
Glenn Hancock I disagree. I don't pay for a device to constantly give my coordinates. I pay for a device I use for communication and using the internet. asking that it doesn't constantly give my location, name, and a multitude of other things is not is completely reasonable, and should be done.
so what I'm taking from this is we should encourage drug dealers to have safeguards to destroy their cash and assets if they're raided, to defund the police and the surveillance state
Turn off your cell phone when not using it and even put it in a container which prevents transmission I don't even carry a cell phone, but not just because it's a privacy issue.
Microwave ovens use a Faraday cage to prevent leakage. YOU MAY NOTICE the Glass in the doors have this sheet of thin metal with all these holes....like what they print onto and put over windows on busses so passengers can still see out. Anyway, it acts like an RF shield and will block interference. Great quick place to drop phones into to keep them shielded. Alrighty
Or you use a oldschool phone that has only calling, textmessages and a alarm clock. Paired with a card none can exactly tell who it belongs to and do your remaining communication over machines you control (or last last think you do (or can)). Shits fucked up and has to be changed from the top. Considering most battery are glued in nowadays... We give up our autonomy for small conveniences - a smart dictatorship if u ask me.
i read that guys comment and you cant convince him of anything dont waste your time. he rationalizes through emotion rather than logic, also more willing to prove his innocence than protect his privacy.
Sounds good bud, I can clearly see the comment, but I don't really care either way, I'm just trying to show you why it might not be a good idea to publish all of that information online. If you are aware of the potential consequences and choose to do so, then so be it.
I managed to stop him during his hack on me and He launched a Botnet on me which lasted 3 days before it died and my server just kept going on as if nothing had happened. I reported the incident and later I heard that Microsoft had him fired for doing the hacking - Only because I could identify the computer from which he was doing the hacking. The hacker was working for Microsoft on the project called MSN Messenger. I found the bacjk door and stopped it - And I blogged it too. Oblivious - Maybe?
Really? It was "found out" 5 years ago. Really? And N.Y times What? N.Y times behaves as F.B.I. I see Anything, I know Anything. Who? When? Omg! Maddof? Who could tell. OMG! I am in sock!

Hello again Ned - The last comment was sent to me but never published it seems - To that I can say I totally responsible to have published what you found and it is published for exactly that purpose "to be found". I know exactly what can be found on that subject :)
30:35 A homeless dude walks up to Osama bin Laden. "Hey, dude, I lost my phone in the trash can! Can you call it so I can find it by its ringer? Here is my number 1-777-777-7777." "Yeah, sure bro, give me a moment." 5 seconds pass. "HANDS UP, YOU'RE OSAMA BIN LADEN!" Don't breathe air.
Not true. For something as simple as dissident speech on a blog that mentions your name passively they can (and have) put trackers on you and built cases that eventually make it to the circuit courts based explicitly on words you didn't write, and your travel patterns. Even if you win the case, you still lose because in this country, regardless of what the "law is" you are guilty until proven innocent.
So this organized group of individuals can tell you what substances you can or can not put into your blood stream, and in order to do this they can engage in behavior that violates your human rights, funded by money they steal from you, then t
Well - I'm not particularly religious. My name may have Christian in it but that don't mean that I am religious. I think - last time I went to church or did anything remotely religious was about 25 years ago. Who is talking to the police? Even if someone are experiencing something bad it does not mean that everyone is experiencing bad stuff. American exceptionalist ideology - Sorry mate I dobn't live in America. And I don't care what you might call me.
Hello anonymousQ45 - I am sorry that you feel that I'm completely ignorant about what security means and about me being oblivious about what sensitive information is. I do know. And My reason to reach Defcon is simple - I do some research on Security and how to protect yourself about it. Some years ago I was hacked (not completely though but enough for me to get interested in tracking the hacker. I broke off his Back door and so I kicked him out of my computer and then he launched a botnet on me
You probably mistakenly installed a trojan/backdoor, or some random guy managed to, and when you disabled it, the remote program was still trying to connect a couple times a second, or the attacker got mad and tried to DoS you. Since the LoadQM program is a part of MSN Messenger it makes sense that there would be incoming connections from their servers... Perhaps the trojan was controlled through MSN messages? Everything you said are guesses, lacking any confidence or knowledge of the subject.
If you are careless enough to open your mouth about some Political issue - Well - Yes it may actually come back to haunt you. Just like comments on your boss on Facebook can get you fired. It is all just because. So Yes it might come back to bite you if you are not careful about what and how you publish your opinions and other personal info. - In other words - Think carefully about what you are about to publish before publishing. That's all there is to say about it.

Companies could simply escape warrant requests if they simply didn't store user data AND if the software was encrypted and the company didn't have access to the encryption. Yes there are companies like this for email and TOR browser.
You literally could just go to work for them as customer service. You get access to most all of the internal policies for how to handle LEA requests.
very coherent, and well researched. I would recommend a listen. I understand it's long, but by all means feel free to jump around a little bit. There are several different speakers and they present on related topics in a way that each one of their talks is relevant in itself. And if you have a moment please consider spreading the word by liking / subscribing / commenting / and most importantly sharing. Have a great day everyone.
Great talk. Talks like these make me incredibly paranoid and yet I can't stop watching them.
I only use a burner cell with a SIM, my smartphones have no SIMs or personal data stored on any cell. My employer uses a communications management computer where all calls / SMS share common numbers.

We also use satellite pagers so there is no association between cell numbers and pagers. We only need one pager number as all our pagers use the same number and all receive the data.
Very interesting video. We need to build firewall on every ECU in cars. Remote control is very common these upcoming years.
it is a very brave new world indeed
I'm from the future. It's already happening.
I find 2 main points here that jumped out at me here, 1 the government feels when you share something with a 3rd party system / company you no longer have rights to privacy of it so its free to be collected, which it should really depend on the type of information, so anything you share with a 3rd party that you intended would be free information of other citizens (users) then yes thats freely open and un-private (so say for example you post a comment or info on facebook, even if its just for your friends from the account thats 1 thing), but when its an operation the device or 3rd party performs without the common users knowledge (location) and is not accessible to the other citizens (users) publicly, then it should be considered a right to privacy (so your passwords and any information thats between you and the 3rd party, so pretty much everything in your emails since your the only one that see's them)
just like if you we're to go to a lawyers office and give him some files or your Last Will to hold with the stipulation only you and him would know the infomation and see it, then would you not expect the right to privacy with that 3rd party? of course the 3rd party email or device company would have to have in its agreement the info is between you and them to really seal the deal cuz now they may say it can provide the info if it wants to, but everyone signs up for it cuz they dont read any contract.
and point 2 was that warrants are done by a judge and the prosecutor, there should also be a jury panel just like in criminal cases since the idea is that the warrant is being ceased by the law enforcement agency of the people of the state / US v. the person in question, so there should be a jury that hears the evidence the prosecution is going on to suggest a warrant but they leave out names and specifics, and they decide if they feel like its worth encroaching on this persons rights possibly because of the information that they may be violating the law, and the law is the law of the people so they enforce it ideally cuz we employ cops to do so for us the people, then the decision goes to the judge to declare the legality and if the lawyer could call a false warrant and kill the trial if they got anything in the search, then they get the warrant lol.
or at least that made sense to me xD but a lot has probably changed since this vid and talk
What is even more disturbing, is a lot of companies have added clauses in their privacy policies within the last 3 or so years that basically waive all your rights to privacy in a really shady and vague way that suggests that any 3rd party can come and collect info about you. For example, check out this appalling one:
"When you visit or use the Service, third parties may obtain information about you or your computer or device. These third parties may include:
· Service Providers. We may use service providers to help us with the Service or any other lawful activity may do, including the other activities we describe under this Policy. This means service providers may collect, process, and store any of the information that we may collect under the Policy, and information collected in connection with the Service may be collected directly by our service providers.
· Third Party Tracking and Online Advertising. We may permit third party ad networks, social media companies, and other third party services to collect information about you, your computer or device when you visit or use the Service. This information may be collected automatically, including through cookies, social media plug-ins, and other technologies"
So basically "anyone can collect anything for whatever reason, whenever they want". Yeah, no thanks... 😬
Also, have a read of this article. I found it quite interesting:

+Natalie Spa could you spam this channel a little more please?
+Natalie Spa you look like a fucking alien ayy lmao
the problem , is not that you move around plenty, but that part of this data is you and your comments on this particular video. but hey keep thinking it's just someone else.
+DeeWeext lol. I'm covering my cam. do you?
Why the fuck can't we elect a POTUS who will appoint an AG who is like "Hm, this seems shady, let's not do this," instead of "Fuck it, they'll have to prove it in court and we'll use their own money to fight it."
+The Chopping Block de facto, democracy is a multiple choice questionnaire designed for idiots. but hey at least it's entertaining =)
+foobargorch Democracy is the tyranny of the majority. It is two wolves and a sheep arguing over dinner plans. Plato called it the lowest form of government, literally: mob rule.
The Chopping Block I have no problem with mind mob rule, at least that's conceptually fair, but in practice it's very far from that.
+foobargorch Disturbing.
The Chopping Block well, what's better? at least with the current mess we we agree that nepotism, in breeding and oppressing minorities are bad, even though we keep doing them anyway. In the past nobody even bothered with the theatrics. That's progress in my book.
Data phone logs need to be dumped very regular. Laws should be passed to dump phone logs after so long of time and not wait years.
The government only tells you what they want you to know. Remember this..
Your second point contradicts your first, government doesn't solve problems caused by government especially not limiting their own power.

I would really be interested to hear a talk like this for Canada.
Actually this is happening mostly with US gov. Like in Europe (and most other countries) your privacy is 100% secure because of the law. But with recent laws, US gov agencies now can legally act outside US, so rip freedom. And news about german sec agencies selling info to muricans for software renting (!!!!!) are really disturbing
even in europe, they circumvented the laws in FR, UK, and GER. They even invented new surveilance "anti terrorism" laws to remove privacy and let police monitor everything thats unencrypted
Canada has a lot of the same issues wrt this as the us does. In fact, Canada is actually worse when it comes to crypto as they can legally force you to give up your passwords.
It's actually pretty widely known, now, that even BEFORE the P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Atrocity...I mean Act...that (when it was still ILLEGAL to spy on Americans within America's borders) all the NSA/CIA/etc. would do is get the information from the UK, Canada, New Zealand, Australia on U.S. citizens...and we would provide THEM with the information on THEIR citizens. This is easily one of THE BEST "loopholes" in law that I've ever seen..."OK, well WE can't spy on Americans but GCHQ can, and GCHQ can't spy on UK citezens but WE can...HMMMM, I have an idea!!! How 'bout we just TRADE information?!" GOOD IDEA, PETE!! And thus, it began. Also, most people don't know that the NSA and all those other spy organizations had been spying on Americans for several years PRIOR to 9/11 even though it was 100% ILLEGAL. Call me a "Conspiracy Theorist" all you want, all day long; it doesn't change the FACT that 9/11 did *NOT* happen the way we are told it did and in the way the GUBMINT and MSM allege it did. The SCIENCE is out there. The whistleblowers are out there...so, the point I am trying to make is that "A New Pearl Harbor" was needed to accomplish certain goals otherwise Americans would NEVER go for them...ONE of those things being the COMPLETE DEMOLITION of the U.S. Constitution by the P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Atrocity I mean Act. The GUBMINT has been like a 12 year old boy looking at naked ladies in its desire for a TOTAL INFORMATION POLICE STATE...Just look at what they are focused on at THIS time!! GUNS. They KNOW that in order to fully implement their grand scheme that they MUST disarm Americans. Once THAT goal is accomplished the plan will be nearly complete and the things that aren't complete will be pushed through like a hot knife through butter because Americans will no longer have the ability to rebel. I want to make it 100% COMPLETELY CLEAR, RIGHT HERE, that I DO *NOT* ADVOCATE VIOLENCE BEING USED IN A REVOLUTION!! I believe wholeheartedly that we CAN rise up as a people, united, and simply vote these people OUT OF OFFICE. All it takes is to get people EDUCATED, but there MUST be PROOF (Science, Whistleblowers, etc.) It's happening, people ARE waking up to what's going on, thankfully. Sadly, though, what's going on is SO *INCREDIBLY* COMPLEX and THEY HAVE THE PATIENCE to carry out the complete dissolution of the Constitution over time. Think, if you will, of the frog in the pot. The frog is happy in a pot full of cool water. Turn up the heat slowly and the frog doesn't even notice until he's been boiled alive. THAT, friends, is what is going on. Their plans have been slowly being implemented, part by part, piece by piece, and NOBODY PAYS ATTENTION. Now, we're on the edge of the cliff and we are near a point where once the line is crossed, there is no possibility to recover. Make no mistake, they are playing "The Long Game" and if we don't unite, FAST, we are DOOMED. This means no more Democrat vs. Republican, Liberal vs. Conservative, Black vs. White, Muslim vs. Christian....WE *ALL* need to put this CRAP aside and UNITE AS *AMERICANS* and STOP this before it's too late. THEN we can address the divisions of today.
Are you kidding? If you say something wrong about muslims in say the UK or Germany, you should definitely expect a visit from the thought police.
Literally have divisions for the internet. No privacy whatsoever.
i agree that this is a real problem that google /fb/and countless of other apps and companies profile and track for their own reasons not our ..good job
By using "Buttsniff", "SNORT" or other port scanner will orient you to tracking...For beginners..It will tell you what country and city a hacker is sending data from... A world map is used for the display.. The scanners are to be advanced...
sacrificing the part of your freedom to protect the rest part of your freedom is always a bad idea - in the end you will have no freedom and no protection.
25 cops watched and disliked this video
SmiTeDGaming 26 now, wow cops aren't as active as you think they are online.
im not a cop . this is just a pic.
Funny
As they said in the talk, for the actual carriers, this often will not matter, the antena you are connecting from already reveals a lot of information about your location. They don't really need your GPS info.
If you use dumb phones, you could potentially try to circumvent by having multiple prepaid sims and phones and only use one at any time, mixing them up every now and then(or if you have money enough for multiple smartphones).
Thank you for the advide but I already encountered that kind of malware and also managed to get rid of it too. Some of my friends had it on their computers.- So far I never experienced it on any of my computers. Not even my webserver. But Thank you anyway for your concern.
@Heinrich Christiansen What is that malware? I already encountered that kind of malware and also managed to get rid of it too.
Last night Google updated their policy and I had to re-disable all the location tracking, voice data, etc. I noticed although I've done this in the past location data has been on in my account the past 8 months. Not cool, Google.
I'd LOOOOOOOVE to get my hot little hands on all the stats for all that and health data.
Ok to answer your question - Yes I have some things that I feel is delicate and should be for me only and you can rest asure that what ever have is kept safe so no one in the world can get hold of it as I keep it all off the computer hence off the internet access. I believe that if anyone have embarrasing stuff and they have any of that stuff public I think they have chosen to do that on their own. If they did that I think maybe they should have given it an extra thought before going public.
The meme became a reality and then came to past...
From: "dont talk we might be tapwired" to "ok tapwire, what are the ingredients to make tofu?"
Yeah - maybe - So far I haven't had any reason to be afraid of any of that - Possibly because I never thought of making my embarrassing stuff public - like in youtube, google or for that matter Facebook or any other forum I might be participating in. You see - I am deciding what I want people to know. I don't publish everything I do in a blog or forum so in that context - I don't get to be too much of a Prey as you call it. I have more life outside the internet than inside.
I was arrested and charge d for tresspass on my own property and three other felonies added falsely prosecuted ycso sheriff got a DUI ironic
Also the rules of the communities state that what ever you make public is no longer your property but the community website's property. Maybe nobody reads the rules of their community? I don't know - I just know I am glad I do read the rules. Many people also let the community use their other login information so the community can invite your friends and what may be likely - sell the login info to 3rd parties to get more money. I am the only person who is to use my passwords, not a community!
.. continued - Since I experience some attaco on my opinions I think it is possible that either I'm getting too close to the truth or maybe even right on the spot and someone just felt touched and so I'm attacked. If someone have something to hide - Maybe it's not a good idea to start an attack.
Hello there. I agree that it is nothing about having something to hide or not and still it might be. You see - It is about whether or not the information you put online can contain any liability to hurt you or not. In other words - Simple things that anyone around you alrady know about you is not really liable to hurt you. At least not if you are using decent behavior. If you have a strong opinion about ysomething - Well yes it is possible that it may come back to hurt you. ..Continued...
Welp, good thing we took care of all those concerns. amiright?
4TH amendment TO BE SAFE IN YOUR PERSON.... that means i can be safe no matter where i travel, that judge got bought and his statements toward illegal searches being legal is proof!!

You can physically unsolder the GPS from rest of the phones board. Schematics wouldn't be hard to find. If you like electronic tinkering that is :)
I know this is 7 years old, but you don't happen to know any good, free resources for learning that kind of chip electronics online, do you? Im curious to understand the tech better but I dont know where to start
Can you show me where the chips are at
All your data is public
Many people are using almost all their time on the internet in a community like facebook and facebook are planting tracking cookies that track what people are doing on other sites while they have their facebook open. I do use facebook - just a little - about 1-2 times per month. "I have a life outside facebook" When I am not using facebook I close the internet window so the facebook cookie can't track my other browsing which again means - I still decide what is public. I suggest everyone do it.
Somehow Facebook Knows I Went to the Princeton Gun Range Recently. As Proud as I am of Being Well Regulated in Firearms Use, I am Done Carrying a Tracking Device! :)
What are the chances of stalking laws offering any protections? Or offering a venue to push back?

Go try and arrest someone any one and see how that works about the same thing
The technology is the same, so no change

The WWW was "invented" in the early 1940s, it was developed through 1997 when the first browser was developed along with HTML, that's when most people started using the Internet, 60 years after it was created/invented.
Apparently Microsoft's abuse team discovered that my findings were correct - So - Maybe I'm not that oblivious to what is going on after all. - Who knows?!?
FYI - Google and Apple no longer have the direct ability to decrypt your mobile devices.
Sure thing - Got one too. The stuff here was in relation to the tracking stuff then someone regarded it as a personal issue and started attacking me and so I felt a need to defend my opinion. I may not be agreeing with most people but I do have an opinion and I dare to stick to my opinion no matter what anyone say or think. My opinion is still - If you are not hiding something illegal then you don't need to worry about any surveillance that may be going on. If they can't find anything no charge!
Keep going!! What about RFCs?
@@butteredtoast8666 Hello there,
This comment was up for about 7 years and you are the first to comment on my comment. In the passed time I haven't changed my mind at all, it has actually been strengthened.
RFCs are in different forms:
- Request For Comments.
- RFC as a set of given rules for e.g. a protocol.
I'm not exactly sure which of them you are referring to but this message is my RFC to you.
I wonder if it answers your question?!?
One thing is surveillance, another thing is hacking and in the question of hacking I am totally against it and some hackers have already found out that I mean business about that. I track their attacking IP, which may be a system that has been hacked, but then the SysAdmins will be notified about their system being compromised. So on hacking I'm doing my own RFC: I want to tell the hackers how perfect they are at failing their mission, well at least when they try to attack my personal system.
I guess I must have pissed someone off - Almost just like I'm pissing someone off in here - Right Wesley. From Wesley's comment it looks like I touched (for him) a sensitive area. If you think of it - Not all attacks are DDoS right?!? I'm not a hacker myself but I am trying to learn from what I experience so I can Protect against it and that goes for Surveillance too.
Of course - Installing a trojan or backdoor is a possibility but then it is also somewhat unlikely because when I download anything I intend to install I start with just download it then wait about a week's time for the antivirus that updates and scans every day to catch it. Then when the week is over I install it. So that possibility is somewhat diminished. About facebook cookies - I know that too - and you are right - at least most of it. Usually I consider all kinds of Toolbars to be spyware
that made you on a list of people that should be checked...
For example, LAPD has a server routing all of their data (your data and every bit of smart data that they collect and monitor) funneling through a server routed through a foreign country (guess which country)
Canada quite likely, even calls that the USA doesn't have, or can't get warrants for, get routed through Canada, and the Canadian government IS a "confidential informant". Canada is the US government's puppet in many regards.
Beautiful stuff I love it, still relevant to today except now google as behavioral algorithms that are pretty scary if u ask me.

If you are concerned about the insecurities with google having infrastructure to push applications to remote devices, search for issue 36163 on the android bug tracker and star it.
4th amendment protects all personal property!!!! if you bought it and have a receipt its personal!!.... that includes location, phone numbers, pictures the whole thing!!
A gps device is old school . Today’s instant data analysis check allows instant history and events as well as document graphic daily events that one just has to press a search . The computers are always collecting for that instant request for a search. Do it’s just a instant human collection. From a computer that is always full data all cameras and voice no matter who has ownership or write it is located. So collection data is not acceptable for court . But it is being used to pressure local enforcement to do heavy violation of laws to allow further data to be used without awareness of how other data was collected or even if it was on other devices . No freedom or privacy with contractors using to help develop smart data to hide the ability of law to do what they can’t do. And pay well as they use all other collection devices for full collection snd tracking with non standard computer systems developers for government agency’s That allows a hidden world of data for instant use with very high level of graphics and data display for instant request. All data is fully computerized analysis and ready 24 7 faster than one can blink with Data so powerful that one can not even be allowed to see his own data as it is not mentally acceptable display that one can just walk away and know a computer truly may as well be them as it’s collected much fuller and accurate than even a human with photo Memory recognition could come close to being able to be so fully exposed for as long as one has lived in many cases . Yet we have computer attacks how can we spend so much and yet have the wrong strengths to protect our nation .
The answer is yes
Welp, if I'm ever kidnapped and murdered at least my digital footprint will still be there to hopefully help law enforcement. At the same time, a criminal could use it against me.
Yes cell phones "DANGER"
I WANT them to know what I'm thinking
Forgot, THen you have the tracking chip in your credit/debit card too :P
Well - I am aware of the potential consequenses ever since I made it public about 17 years ago and I have been expecting something to happen but so far nothing bad has happened well almost nothing - Some attacks on my site or the computer I use but otherwise nothing and all the time it withstood the challenges and still does - the only real bad insidence was the one with microsoft's hacker who couldn't leave the hacking off the work - I'm guessing it was a script kiddie. Thanks for the concern
No they didn't tell me directly but in the newsflash on the radio they pinpointed that the person that was fired was working on the development og MSN and that he had actively been discovered while he was hacking someone. Does that count?!? And about hacking - Maybe I don't know all the details about hacking and the massiveness of an attack but then why did the attack start within 1 hour after I closed the backdoor and why did the attack last day and night for full 3 days?!? Anyone know that?
Well I'm guessing it was a bot net - It happened with 2-3 server requests per second (about 10000 per hour) - from loads of different ip's - I think I may have a good reason to think it was a bot net - A single attacker is usually using 1 ip and usually it's FTP attacks
With all of the benefits that commercial entities reap from customers using their devices, it's a wonder that the end user still has to pay for the usage.
And the question is: If you have nothing to hide, and you are not a criminal, so what if the government has this location information and any other type of information for that matter?
@peter littlehorse The Jews had it coming. That aside, you are correct
I wouldn't let some government stranger march into my home and start digging through everything regardless if I didnt do anything and have nothing to hide. I'll treat my mobile devices the same way. No one but me needs to looks through my data and see my GPS where abouts.
Facebook will track you even if you are not logged in... If you've ever logged in to FB and the cookie associated with your user is still present, they know who you are and track what pages you visit every time there's a "Like" button on any page, or anything other FB plugin sourced from their servers.
It seems that alot of people are cool with this :/ in the name that there not criminals im not either but I wouldnt hand my phone to someone and let them collect data just purely invasive goes against laws if you know them.
It's funny that the "What They Know" data is hosted on Wall Street Journal.. Which has 25+ trackers it sends data to as soon as you load the page. C'mon guys, seriously?
... The INCOMING IP came from a computer which I tracked to be in the MSN Development Block so I reported the incident to Microsofts Abuse department and sure enough where I described what I experienced and that I had tracked the IP to the specific computer in the Microsoft block. I checked it by noting the IP's before and after the disabling LoadQM and when I enabled it again it continued so I'm sure it was from there. A few months later in the news there was a message about the hacker. ...
I hate what our gov't is doing, however, at the end of the day there is a big difference between the police sneaking onto my property and sticking a GPS to my car and my agreeing to pay money to them for this cool GPS receiver that I'll carry in my pocket.
What I do disagree with, is the fact that if I want to turn off that tracking I don't have the ability to do it, other than turning the phone off and not using it.
Glenn Hancock I disagree. I don't pay for a device to constantly give my coordinates. I pay for a device I use for communication and using the internet. asking that it doesn't constantly give my location, name, and a multitude of other things is not is completely reasonable, and should be done.
Watch Michael Tsarions talks on the War on Consciousness.
If a VPN is used, its location can be detected
so what I'm taking from this is we should encourage drug dealers to have safeguards to destroy their cash and assets if they're raided, to defund the police and the surveillance state
Turn off your cell phone when not using it and even put it in a container which prevents transmission I don't even carry a cell phone, but not just because it's a privacy issue.
Microwave ovens use a Faraday cage to prevent leakage. YOU MAY NOTICE the Glass in the doors have this sheet of thin metal with all these holes....like what they print onto and put over windows on busses so passengers can still see out.
Anyway, it acts like an RF shield and will block interference. Great quick place to drop phones into to keep them shielded.
Alrighty
Or you use a oldschool phone that has only calling, textmessages and a alarm clock. Paired with a card none can exactly tell who it belongs to and do your remaining communication over machines you control (or last last think you do (or can)). Shits fucked up and has to be changed from the top. Considering most battery are glued in nowadays... We give up our autonomy for small conveniences - a smart dictatorship if u ask me.
"Do you guys use AT&T?"
"DO YOU??"

i read that guys comment and you cant convince him of anything dont waste your time. he rationalizes through emotion rather than logic, also more willing to prove his innocence than protect his privacy.

Correction, you have to take out the battery. Sad right, Lil Dog tags.

Nice
Sounds good bud, I can clearly see the comment, but I don't really care either way, I'm just trying to show you why it might not be a good idea to publish all of that information online. If you are aware of the potential consequences and choose to do so, then so be it.
counter to phone cloning: Store heavy amounts of gore on a folder and make the feds pay for taking your privacy
surely he means his cell phone when he says tracking device
I managed to stop him during his hack on me and He launched a Botnet on me which lasted 3 days before it died and my server just kept going on as if nothing had happened. I reported the incident and later I heard that Microsoft had him fired for doing the hacking - Only because I could identify the computer from which he was doing the hacking. The hacker was working for Microsoft on the project called MSN Messenger. I found the bacjk door and stopped it - And I blogged it too. Oblivious - Maybe?
Thanks..
Really? It was "found out" 5 years ago. Really? And N.Y times What? N.Y times behaves as F.B.I. I see Anything, I know Anything. Who? When? Omg! Maddof? Who could tell. OMG! I am in sock! Boths sucks. I can offer my services to them. Very embarrasssing. Btw, I am a latina. And poor. Somehow,by a miracle I can think.
Hello again Ned - The last comment was sent to me but never published it seems - To that I can say I totally responsible to have published what you found and it is published for exactly that purpose "to be found". I know exactly what can be found on that subject :)
30:35 A homeless dude walks up to Osama bin Laden. "Hey, dude, I lost my phone in the trash can! Can you call it so I can find it by its ringer? Here is my number 1-777-777-7777." "Yeah, sure bro, give me a moment." 5 seconds pass. "HANDS UP, YOU'RE OSAMA BIN LADEN!" Don't breathe air.
Why are they doing that what's going on in the world I'm so not knowing anything that you guys know I'm curious
Don't get me started. You can rest assured they have a FUCKING MASSIVE BLACK BUDGET.
Sorry about my typos
Not true. For something as simple as dissident speech on a blog that mentions your name passively they can (and have) put trackers on you and built cases that eventually make it to the circuit courts based explicitly on words you didn't write, and your travel patterns. Even if you win the case, you still lose because in this country, regardless of what the "law is" you are guilty until proven innocent.
That is all publicly available information found on the internet...

They can still track you via the cell network

+Cameron Mills actually it isn't called a SIM card in the UK. Cellular network != SIM card.
what about black berrey
Well - I'm not particularly religious. My name may have Christian in it but that don't mean that I am religious. I think - last time I went to church or did anything remotely religious was about 25 years ago. Who is talking to the police? Even if someone are experiencing something bad it does not mean that everyone is experiencing bad stuff. American exceptionalist ideology - Sorry mate I dobn't live in America. And I don't care what you might call me.
Hello anonymousQ45 - I am sorry that you feel that I'm completely ignorant about what security means and about me being oblivious about what sensitive information is. I do know. And My reason to reach Defcon is simple - I do some research on Security and how to protect yourself about it. Some years ago I was hacked (not completely though but enough for me to get interested in tracking the hacker. I broke off his Back door and so I kicked him out of my computer and then he launched a botnet on me
You probably mistakenly installed a trojan/backdoor, or some random guy managed to, and when you disabled it, the remote program was still trying to connect a couple times a second, or the attacker got mad and tried to DoS you. Since the LoadQM program is a part of MSN Messenger it makes sense that there would be incoming connections from their servers... Perhaps the trojan was controlled through MSN messages?
Everything you said are guesses, lacking any confidence or knowledge of the subject.
If you are careless enough to open your mouth about some Political issue - Well - Yes it may actually come back to haunt you. Just like comments on your boss on Facebook can get you fired. It is all just because. So Yes it might come back to bite you if you are not careful about what and how you publish your opinions and other personal info. - In other words - Think carefully about what you are about to publish before publishing. That's all there is to say about it.
