PRISM - The Indian Perspective on American NSA's new policy

[legendster]

Loudmouth yes I am.
Absent from the forum for a while : YES I am.

Outraged by the OBAMA administration's PRISM ? YES I AM !

My Comments : This just shuts me up. All I can officially say is that Obama is no longer my favorite american president anymore and the prophecy about a future where we loose our privacy has come true.

In case you have NO IDEA (if you are an alien like me) about what this PRISM thing really is here's a little excerpt for you.

PRISM is a top secret electronic surveillance program that has been run by the United States National Security Agency (NSA) since 2007.[1][2] "In confirming its existence, officials said that the program, called Prism, is authorized under a foreign intelligence law that was recently renewed by Congress."[2] Reports based on leaked documents describe the PRISM program as enabling in-depth surveillance on live communications and stored information.[3] It provides for the targeting of any customers of participating corporations who live outside the United States, or American citizens whose communications include people outside the USA.[3] Data that the NSA is able to obtain under PRISM allegedly includes email, video and voice chat, videos, photos, voice over IP conversations, file transfers, login notifications and social networking details.[3]

The Washington Post noted that the leaked document indicated that the PRISM SIGAD is "the number one source of raw intelligence used for NSA analytic reports."[4] The President's Daily Brief, an intelligence product, cited PRISM data as a source in 1,477 items last year.[5]

The leaked information came to light a day after the revelation that the U.S. government had secretly been requiring the telecommunications company Verizon to turn over to the NSA logs tracking all of its customers' telephone calls on an ongoing daily basis.

I'll be honest I didnt knew about this before.

Yeah, loads of options.

The one with the least barrier of entry for zero knowledge users seems to be silent circle though.

Kinda keen to do an article on all of this and ways to work around surveillance.

Any inputs would be awesome, else I will just pen my own thoughts.

[subvolatil]

For me personally I avoid surveillance with TOR and some products of 'Net Tools' I would definitely look into this silent circle.

Cant we all just build a new land on water ? or make our own Bioshock City ? after all 70% of earh is water :/ or just go and settle a new country in space somewhere ? i m serious with this question ..

You have a right to start your own country, but you need an army to defend it as well.

The ocean is unclaimed space, with enough of a landfill, you can declare it your own country. This was tried before, but a neighboring country conquered the space.

Read up, its quite interesting on how to start your own country. Sealand was also started by not recognized by any nation.

You can even declare yourself as a country, but if you are on someone else's land, they may override your declaration.

We are approximately 150 - 200 years away from that

The question is, Is anyone doing anything to stop it ?

unless there are immutable economic principles that support a completely free society you arent going to get one. of course, you could argue that we live in a completely free society now and people are completely free to act to limit your freedoms.

If I would argue that we live in a completely free society I wouldnt be so concerned about PRISM. I'd happily live in denial and talk about alien conspiracies.

So you are trying to say is that a completely free society is economically 'UNSTABLE' ?? Like since when did that happen ?

[wolverine.ks]

I'm saying we either already live in a completely free society or the laws of economics and the current state of technology prohibit a completely free society.

either way, more technology = a better world
