This morning, I was greeted in my AOL inbox by a
sponsored email from the Washington Times, something that said “the 20 words in
your emails that can get you tracked by the NSA”.
I went to the link, and it seemed to be one of these
videos that goes on and on, making you watch an endless presentation to find
all the nuggets. Porter Stansberry used
to do that with his presentation of what will end America (hint: the dollar is
no longer recognized as a reserve currency because of too much debt).
Now, I thought that the controversy had been over
metadata. I guess the assumption is that
the NSA really does read all our emails and “private” social media posts.
Since almost all of my social media posts are public
anyway, it makes little difference to me.
But I’ve mentioned some frightening stuff, like the possibility of EMP
attacks. Would that get me on a list?
I suppose that down the road, governments would get
the ability to match genetic information with statements online to develop
profiles of “propensities” and put people on watch lists, like at
airports. And remember where the word “propensity”
was so convenient for the government?
