On the day President Barack Obama proposed reforms to the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, the National Security Agency shared a paper claiming legal authority for its spying and revealing that it "touches" 1.6 percent of Internet information.
The memo says that after the 2001 terror attacks, "Several programs were developed to address the U.S. Government's need to connect the dots of information available to the intelligence community and to strengthen the coordination between foreign intelligence and domestic law enforcement agencies," including the bulk collection of telephone and email records.
NSA: 1.6 Percent Of Internet Information 'Touched' By Us
Your finer military minds will understand what I am about to say.
The thing, the rationale, the true purpose: What is the thing? The thing is the installed hardware and whatever other technological and human systems necessary for the NSA's collection of all communications and signals.
What is the rationale? It's to catch the terriss, which can't even theoretically be true, as evidenced by that trashdiction's studious ignoring of incompatible engine hardware on Murray Street.
What is the true purpose? The true purpose of the thing is so that some among us can have knowledge of everything. The NSA is in the business of copying every last piece of information in 3-dimensional reality for the purpose of creating a computer-based simulacrum of this world. They are amassing all information for the purpose of creating a simulation in which they may wage information warfare, or, roughly, "war games".
Once you can uniquely identify all physical things in a 3-D space, and once you have the ability to log all signals communicated between those things, you can then model that reality inside a computer. And once you can model that reality, you can wargame it out; that is, your computers will tell you precisely what you have to do or say to bring about a desired outcome in the 3-D reality on which that simulation is based.
While operating under the guise of catching the terriss, the NSA has been busy installing all necessary equipment for creating the largest simulator ever, and for running the largest information warfare campaign ever.
The NSA is creating an abstraction layer in which they hope everyone will live. And since that abstraction layer will be gameable by the NSA, the NSA will be able to control everything in this 3-D world.
That's the plan, anyway. According to information theory, it works. They will succeed.
The independent power center known as the NSA is a threat to the whole of humanity. I cannot overstate that. The NSA needs to be terminated completely.
