NSA and GCHQ are spying on Angry Birds

This is no Joke. Popular game apps collect a lot of data about you so that they can use it for Marketing and selling more to you.
The most popular game is Angry Birds so the GHCQ and the NSA gather those data about you.

Do not provide those guys with more info than you have to. Insurances about how well they are taking care of your data are not worth the paper (or computer) they are written upon.

Angry Birds is common on Both iOS and Android and they gather a lot of info about the users for the developing company Rovio in Finnland.
Rovio claim that they had no idea about this and that they have not cooperated with GCHQ or the NSA.
In fact they were rather shocked when they were contacted by the Guardian in the matter.

There is no reason to believe that this is limited to the App Angry Birds. In total these Apps gather a lot of information about their users like age, sex. geo-location and technical info about the phone can easily be extracted from Apps.

Some Apps even keep track of sexual preferences (dating etc) some unnamed App is apparently able to disclosure very detailed sexual preferences.

The NSA is also very happy with everybody uploading pics. to facebook and other social media as they state with this powerpoint which they have called Golden Nugget:

Based on these sources the NSA can gather detailed profiles and draw a map over a persons life.

Based on Obamas speeches so far, he has no plans of stopping this.

I guess we can all look forward to the fingerprint log-in on smartphones:
Hands up every one who thinks that the NSA and GCHQ will keep their fingers away from that....

And why should they stop there:
Take a DNA sample and finger print of every baby born, and store it - They are all potential criminals....

Big O has not say so, he is just a sock puppet.

The next one on the seat is going to be another puppet too.

Who wants to make a bet?

I am pretty much sure who is going to be because you will be forced to vote for it like a bunch of lemmings.

That is the problem.
Presidents and Prime Ministers come and go - the NSA and GHCQ stays and have their ways of influencing those Rookies.

The legality of it is questionable even with all the laws they have tried to sneak in under false flags like Ripa Pipa Sopa Acta etc.

If it is illegal in the UK the NSA can gather it and give it back to the GCHQ when needed and if it is illegal in the US the GCHQ will gather it and give it to the NSA if needed.

This is clearly happening, but most probably unlawful - I bet anything that the NSA and GCHQ will claim that this is lawful though - hence the "we are doing nothing illegal claim".

So when Obama and Cameron dynamically state that they are not doing "it" to UK and US citizens - they forget to say that the NSA and the GCHQ are doing it for them in those cases .

There is no parliamentary control of this - so MP's that make decisions without democratic foundation must be aware that they could be part of (Organized) crime - and who is monitoring those criminals?

Not the NSA and not the GHCQ - they need the puppets.
They only need to make sure that they are not democratically controlled - that makes their control much easier.
Leaving decisions about whether data can be shared with agencies abroad to the "unfettered discretion" of ministers is also a probable breach of the convention, the advice warns.
"First, the transfer of private data is a significant interference with an individual's article 8 rights. That interference will only be lawful when proportionate.

Security clearance is always to some degree avoidance of Democracy. And thus to avoid control:
Thirdly, on a pragmatic level,there is a real possibility that the NSA might function as GCHQ's unofficial 'backup' service. If GCHQ is not entitled to hold onto data itself, it might transfer it to the NSA. In time, and if relevant, that data might be transferred back to GCHQ. Without strong guidelines and scrutiny, the two services might support each other to (in effect) circumvent the requirements of their domestic legislation

Most people does not know this and that is that is not true that Federal Law trumps State Law.

Read the Supremacy Clause

The supremacy of federal law over state law only applies if Congress is acting in pursuance of its constitutionally authorized powers.


The Marijuana revolution is a good example. Is a power demonstration of how the state does not give a rat's ass about what the Feds says.

The way the Feds keeps control of the states is with funding. Kind of like Mafia Boss; do as I say and nothing will happen.
Each time the States wants to excersise their rights based on the 10th Amendment of the US Constititution that states....
"Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom, and independence, and every power, jurisdiction, and right, which is not by this Confederation expressly delegated to the United States, in Congress assembled."


The EU wants to do the same exact thing with the European nations. The EU wants to be like US (pun intended).
So when the big cheese say is going to do some is all lies. That is what I do not believe a dam thing that comes from his pie hole.
Is nothing but a convoluted sales pitch and you know how I feel about sales pitches....
when you start selling I quit listening
