Big Brother Watches you Drive---September 10,
2002
Imagine being watched from the moment you get behind the
wheel.
Every glance is tracked and every blink monitored, with your car
warning you before you are going to have an accident.
This is now possible thanks to a system that studies the human
face to detect fatigue or distraction and then
alerts the driver.
The FaceLab system
recently won one of Australia's most prestigious scientific
awards, the Eureka prize for innovation in technology. FaceLab
has been developed Seeing Machines, an
international team of 20 scientists based at Australian National
University in Canberra.

Car-driving continuously monitored by "black box"
(voice-activated) -- July 25-2002
Selditz, president of Camarillo, Calif.-based
Road Safety International, said the box will record
data on how fast the teens drive, how sharp
they make turns and if they remembered to fasten their seat belt
before starting the car. ...
Parents can then review the child's driving by downloading the trip data onto their personal
computer at home and going over it.
Eventually, Selditz said, the box will be able to hook
into a global positioning system so parents can
actually track the child's driving in real time on a computer. [Ed. note: never alone, never out of site]
Each violation contributes to the driver's overall
rating on a scale of one to 10.
He said he won't endorse SafeForce
because there are other products that do similar tracking,
including a product called Smart Driver. But he
said his department supports the concept of monitoring teen
driving through the black boxes.
He said the department already has a program in place called the Sheriff's
Teen Traffic Offender Program that offers a toll-free number for
people to call and report reckless teenage drivers
on the road. It was recently adopted in the east county
area by the Ventura County Sheriff's Department.

Police
to spy on all emails (phones, faxes)....June 10-2002
Millions of personal emails, other internet information and
telephone records are to be made accessible to the police and
intelligence services in a move that has been denounced by
critics as one of the most wide-ranging
extensions of state power over private information.
Plans being drawn up by Europol, the police and intelligence arm of the European Union, propose that telephone and internet firms retain millions of pieces of data - including details of visits to internet chat rooms, and of calls made on mobile phones and text messages.
In
a move that has been condemned by privacy campaigners, a draft
document passed to The Observer reveals that the EU is now
drawing up a 'common code' on data retention which will be
applicable in all member states.

Government officials have pursued a very deliberate, incremental
strategy in order to increase the use of the SSN," she told
WorldNetDaily. "We've just recently seen the push to get
more and more information tied to the driver's license,"
which could ultimately lead to a national ID card.
Lawmakers "stuck a provision to do just that into an
immigration bill in 1996," said Twight, who has just
authored a new book, "Dependent on D.C.: The Rise of Federal
Control Over the Lives of Ordinary Americans," a CATO Institute work that was
published by St. Martin's Press.

MS Passport
Jason Catlett, president of privacy advocacy group
Junkbusters, compared services such as Passport,

the government or an oligarchy of companies.
"With these databases, you can be targeted. People don't
want to be targeted," he said.
Catlett and other privacy experts already have filed a complaint
with the Federal Trade Commission, saying
Passport deceives and coerces consumers into parting with
their data. Catlett said it will only get worse when such
information can be tied to people's whereabouts.

PRIVACY CONCERNS from KHouse enews..Jan 15-2002
While most government officials have rejected the implementation of a National I.D. Card, according to the Boston Globe, all 50 states have agreed to increase the security features that are currently being used on state driver's licenses. The American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators is working to promote standardization in the bar codes and magnetic strips used on many state driver's licenses so they can be scanned in any other state. The AAMVA is also looking into connecting the databases of state D.M.V.s with law-enforcement agencies. While much less controversial than a National ID card, standardizing state driver's licenses and sharing of data with other states has been considered an intermediary step in the direction of making driver's licenses de facto national identity cards.
Over the past few years and months, concerns over the rise of crime and terrorism, combined with improved technology, have brought many new encroachments on our privacy. While we would not allow government officials to physically enter our homes and search our desks and papers without warrants, or to place cameras in our living rooms, or tap our phones, similar types of less-obvious invasions on our privacy have been slowly creeping in.
Face Recognition: They are
watching.
From the Super Bowl's facial recognition system in Tampa
to casinos like the Trump Marina and the Foxwoods Resort,
cameras have been set up to spy on you. While the Tampa
face-recognition system has not brought about the arrest
of one criminal, law-enforcement in Tampa still uses the
system twice a week. Visionics Corp., which makes the
"Face-It" technology, said they have helped law
enforcement catch wanted criminals elsewhere, such as in
the United Kingdom.
Echelon: They are listening.
In a network between free countries, a spy system known
as Echelon is being used to help countries spy on each
others' citizens. When Echelon picks up specific keywords
during normal (private?) phone conversations, the entire
conversation starts being recorded and alerts an
authority that the callers may be potential terrorists or
threats to society.
Carnivore: They are reading your
email.
This system can read through thousands of emails and
search for keywords. The government assures us that this
is only being used in specific and targeted cases, but a
reviewer of the system said "While the system was
designed to, and can, perform fine-tuned searches (of
personal e-mail), it is also capable of broad
sweeps
Incorrectly configured, Carnivore can record
any traffic it monitors."
Secure 1000: They are peeking.
These devices are being installed in airports around the
country. They allow airport security to view items like
plastic knives carried beneath clothing. While the
devices do not show tattoos or scars, they do present a
good outline of what is underneath people's clothes.
Know your customer: Your banker is
suspicious of you.
This regulation requires banks to determine their
customers' sources of funds; the normal and expected
transactions of their customers; monitor account activity
for transactions that are inconsistent with those normal
and expected transactions; and report any transactions
that are determined to be suspicious.
We are told that these losses of privacy will help catch criminals and will increase our national and personal safety. Many have said that those who have nothing to hide should not be concerned. However, those who have had their homes burglarized often say that what disturbed them the most was the violation and the knowledge that somebody unknown to them had entered their home and had gone through their possessions.
Information and privacy intrusions are
equally invasive - complete strangers, without a warrant,
are looking through your "stuff".
Continue to pray for this nation and our leaders. May we
trust in God, and not our technology.

AOL-Time Warner and Internet ID
AOL's project, which it calls Magic Carpet, would allow
people to store personal information online to simplify
transactions on the Internet, according to an internal AOL
document and industry executives. AOL Time Warner would be
chasing Microsoft, which has already developed a service called
Passport that has more than 160 million accounts. AOL officials
declined to comment.
An "identity service" gives consumers one place to store essential information -- including their names, addresses and credit card numbers -- so they can use different Web sites and purchase things online with a single user name and password. Many industry analysts believe such a centralized service is critical to the continued growth of the commercial Internet.
But identity
services are alarming consumer groups and privacy activists, who
say it remains unclear how the companies that are collecting the
data will protect and share it. Critics say that just as AOL,
Microsoft and other companies are asking consumers to trust them
as guardians of their identities online, there have been
breaches, many involving Microsoft software, that raise questions
about security."...

Snitch and tell .....WAVE..anonymous tip line (also SAVE)

members of communities [anybody]
across America valuable tools to make their schools safer while
promoting a message of personal and ethical responsibility."[open to large
interpretation]

now spying on spies....CI-21

directive is significant, senior Clinton administration officials

espionage and other types of spying, rather than solely
emphasizing the protection of government secrets.
