Altered Google Earth Tracks Cars, People

Scary stuff, but not surprising. The real scary things is, you'd never know if the government was already doing something like this, which I'm sure has been true for some time especially considering the previous administration.

this is wild, but seriosly i dont think they would be able to implament this stuff. and if they do it will probably require a warrant

 

[WINTERLORD]

You don't need a warrant to track terrorists and if you look into it your goverment has already classed you all as terrorists. http://www.welfarestate.com/pamphlet/

This is nothing new, both US and Israeli defense contractors have sold this type of solution for at least 5 years. It's deployed around secure facilities and even some airports. There are many research papers publicly available on the subject.
This is just another hyped news article just because they connected it with the "magic" Google word.

For all those saying it's not that bad.. Watch people through it then wait for them to watch you in return and come back here and say that you've been robbed while you was visiting your mother because the thieves knew you're out without having to watch the house and possibly get caught..
Please don't negative rate this comment instead quote it..

I dislike it when people use the "if you're doing nothing wrong..." argument.

There is more to life than right and wrong. Not everything that is "right" is socially normal, and not everything that is wrong isn't. If someone who dislikes you were to perhaps pinpoint you doing something that you don't exactly want everyone to see, you have problems. Whether right or wrong.

It really sad when people have the, "if you are doing nothing wrong argument.." mentality. I love technology, but not when it is being created to be used against me and my fellow citizens. This will be used more than for amber alerts and bank robberies. If this becomes a "security tool", soon enough a divorce lawyer will be using this to track were a spouse is going and what they are doing. Much like the tollway iPass systems are being used to find out where a spouse may have been driving. Much like the red light cameras are being used to show where someone passed. Again, nothing illegal, but just evidence.

If the people who embrace the "if you are doing nothing wrong" argument believe it so much, they should be the first to stand up and want cameras in their homes. The government can protect them even more. From each other. Bedroom, bathroom .. again.. if you are doing nothing wrong then who cares if someone watches everything you do 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Maybe your wholesome life can be an inspiration to the rest of us heathens.

I don't know if this is the advent of 1984 or not, but I agree that we Americans are becoming weaker willed in our advent to be protected from everything. We used to be a much stronger and smarter nation.

Hmmm - I'm considering a related business enterprise: Selling Baseball caps which are embroidered with an Upraised Middle Finger on the top.

That's so cute. You still believe that you have laws here in America to protect you.

This is not worrysome at all, won't bother me until the advertising agencies try using it to track where we are going and what we are doing to throw ads at us....not that they arn't already doing a version of just that online...

The Internet has been great for information but horrible for privacy. Nice to know that my privacy is now defunct.

This is bad, robbers could watch when you leave your house and rob you at any given time, this is some prety scary shit.
