Snowden Leaks: XBOX KINECT CAMERA Targeted by Intelligence Services; Mass Collection of Webcam Feeds"

 
It was all true.
Everything they posted about, all that "hyperbole" about the Kinect camera, turned out to be the case. We have a physical document that explicitly states that it was and is all true.
 
 
Britain's surveillance agency GCHQ, with aid from the US National Security Agency, intercepted and stored the webcam images of millions of internet users not suspected of wrongdoing, secret documents reveal. [...] a surveillance program codenamed Optic Nerve collected still images of Yahoo webcam chats in bulk and saved them to agency databases, regardless of whether individual users were an intelligence target or not.
 
>Optic Nerve was just one of a series of GCHQ efforts at biometric detection, whether for target recognition or general security. [...] One presentation discusses with interest the potential and capabilities of the Xbox 360's Kinect camera, saying it generated "fairly normal webcam traffic" and was being evaluated as part of a wider program.
 
> the NSA looked at building more detailed and accurate facial recognition tools, such as iris recognition cameras – "

So is this whole thing only targeting US models though. Are they even allowed to do this on an international scale?

That some people didn't even suspect this is beyond me. Some people are so naive.

Ha. Ha ha ha. 

 

Ha.

 

Hur.

 

Why am I not surprised at this?

People are fussing over a lot of stupid crap these days. I don't know why people aren't fussing over very serious crap like the NSA. That shouldn't be happening.


In other words, I love you

It's true that we shouldn't have to - and indeed, should not - rely on the government for protection. It's not a god. It's dangerous when state becomes supreme

 

But you'd have to be pretty sheltered to think that this sort of thing is done to prevent terrorism. The kind of spying the NSA does is absolutely excessive and has no regard for personal privacy - that kind of monitoring is inhuman.


In other words, I love you

I wear  the skin of the women I killed and look in the mirror. They must always put the lotion on thier skin or they get the hose again.

 

In all seriousness

Read this book or watch the film. It's no longer fictional. It's happening now.

Allowed to? Who's going to stop the US crap machine? If it's not legal, they'll make it legal.
