  • America’s freedom of choice except for choice of privacy Part 2

    Posted on March 22, 2016 12:02 am by Richard

    A court battle that really is about an American’s choice of privacy is about to start. The FBI vs Apple battle has clear lines being drawn. But the battle does not stop with Apple, the Whatsapp software is also under fire and faces similar legal action by the US government. Continue reading → Post ID 15678

  • US standard response about Thai Coup self defeating

    Posted on June 5, 2014 12:02 am by Richard

    Whenever there is a Coup no matter what country, the United States has a standard response and a standard set of protocols. Those protocols do not have the ability to distinguish a Coup for the benefit of military Generals, or a Coup for the benefit of the people by removing a hugely corrupt Government that has been hurting the country.

  • Trending from impartial to Kudos for Edward Snowden

    Posted on September 9, 2013 12:01 am by Richard

    The gut feeling people get when they discover the US government can just open and read an intimate email sent between two lovers, the feeling of it only happens to others is quickly replaced with a feeling of violation. Suddenly the semi comforting thought it can only happen to others is replaced with feelings ranging from anger to being totally violated as people simply conclude it is not others, and they themselves have been spied on.

  • The Anthony Weiner and Edward Snowden connection

    Posted on August 2, 2013 7:01 am by Richard

    Two names that have been in the news of late have been the sex scandal plagued Anthony Weiner and whistle blower Edward Snowden. Both men appear to have uniquely different reasons to be in the news. But when you strip away the seemingly different reasons, you see they are exactly the same. Continue reading → Post ID 15678

  • Edward Snowden’s reality check for the naive

    Posted on June 25, 2013 6:02 pm by Richard

    If what Edward Snowden disclosed about what snooping the US government was doing behind closed doors was a surprise to you, then you can accurately classify yourself as naive. If what Edward Snowden disclosed was no surprise and just confirmation of what you already suspected, then chances are you are more of a leader than a follower, and you can do the math when it comes to the level of technology that is out there in today’s world.

  • Super cyber crime laws

    Posted on October 11, 2012 6:03 pm by Richard

    Unless you have been hiding in a box for the past 5 to 10 years, you would have noticed the gradual increase in laws that are meant to stop cyber crime. However the general wording of those laws also allows the suppression of free speech. It is this infringement on voices that has people up in arms. Continue reading → Post ID 15678

  • The Internet: political power to fear

    Posted on March 9, 2011 12:33 am by Richard

    A lot has happened so far in 2011, and most of what is in the news was lit from a spark from the Internet. So to say an entirely new political landscape has been born seems to be the understatement of the century. Continue reading → Post ID 15678

  • WikiLeaks Assange Sweden query not adding up

    Posted on January 18, 2011 12:02 am by Richard

    The more time goes by, the more a person comes to realize the US wants Julian Assange locked away for any charge they can find from Jaywalking right on up to capital crimes. As the Sweden questioning parameters and chain of events thus far just don’t add up, it is very clear the justice system is being completely and totally misused. The reasons cited are not even in the neighborhood of making any sense at all when you look at all the dots. Continue reading → Post ID 15678

  • Thai government boosting sex industry

    Posted on January 15, 2011 12:03 am by Richard

    You would not think too much about a government trying to squash the sex industry, it gets votes on election day from people who despise such activities. But if you take a look at what the Thai government is doing, they are actually giving a huge boost to Thailand’s second very natural resource, the booming sex trade.

  • Psychological attacks on WikiLeaks

    Posted on January 14, 2011 12:02 am by Richard

    In what clearly is an effort to sway opinion against WikiLeaks, news entries that allow comments are being flooded with anti WikiLeaks comments. Normally this would go unnoticed and be lost in the blur of differing opinions, however in this case it is clear that many if not all of the anti Wikileaks comments are being generated to sway opinion and not render opinion.

  • WikiLeaks good or bad Part 8

    Posted on January 8, 2011 12:02 am by Richard

    Now that WikiLeaks has been solidly entrenched in the news of late, it was curious to see the variety of spins put on it. There has been a whole range of descriptions from bland to extremely colorful metaphors. In this installment of the series we thought we would present that wonderful array and look at who was saying them. Continue reading → Post ID 15678

    Posted on January 6, 2011 12:01 am by Richard

    With Bank of America (BOA) doing what amounts to an admission that they did something very wrong, a person can only wonder just what it is that they did. What was so bad and damning that all out damage control is underway before an anticipated WikiLeaks release is the question of the moment. Continue reading → Post ID 15678
