Judge Andrew Napolitano's Freedom Watch is being cancelled, according to a Fox News press release. Judge Napolitano is a liberty-loving truth-teller who openly talked about the dangers of the NDAA, warrant-less searches, the truth about the Federal Reserve and many other topics that aren't normally covered in the hoax media (mainstream media).

At the same time Judge Napolitano's show is being pulled, YouTube has censored my satire TSA animation video by placing an age restriction on it, preventing the video from ever going super-viral.

Peter Eckersley, technology projects director for the Electronic Frontier Foundation, even went so far as to recommend that anyone living under an authoritarian regime - such as the one in Syria, which is currently engulfed in a civil war - not use Skype, according to a CNN report. "Reportedly, Microsoft is re-engineering these supernodes to make it easier for law enforcement to monitor calls by allowing the supernodes to not only make the introduction but to actually route the voice data of the calls as well," adds Tim Verry, from the website ExtremeTech. "In this way, the actual voice data would pass through the monitored servers and the call is no longer secure. It is essentially a man-in-the-middle attack, and it is made all the easier because Microsoft -- who owns Skype and knows the keys used for the service's encryption -- is helping." follow link to read more Grassroots Internet freedom movement slams GoDaddy.com, lawmakers for their support of SOPA The Internet is the "final frontier" when it comes to pure freedom of speech and expression, which is why authoritarian regimes in places like Iran and China either severely limit or ban access to much of it.

The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS)'s Media Monitoring Initiative (MMI) has been expanded to collect and track information from online forums, blogs, public websites, message boards, and social networking sites, as well as gather "personally identifiable information" (PII) on journalists and media writers. According to the DHS report, the MMI expansion includes collecting PII on news anchors, newscasters, on-scene reporters, both on camera and on the internet, and various other media personalities who "use traditional and / or social media in real time to keep their audience situationally aware and informed" -- so basically anyone, in other words. It also includes collecting personal information on US and foreign government officials, US and foreign government spokespersons, as well as those from private sector companies, and practically any other individuals that make public statements or that provide "public updates" in any way shape or form.

Each one of the community members were initially handcuffed at gunpoint. It was called “The Garden of Eden Community,” and was totally self sustainable. Robin Speronis lives off the grid in Florida, completely independent of the city’s water and electric system. A few weeks ago, officials ruled her off-grid home illegal. Officials cited the International Property Maintenance Code, which mandates that homes be connected to an electricity grid and a running water source. That’s just like saying our dependency on corporations isn’t even a choice. The battle to live without most utilities has been ongoing for Robin, the self-sufficient woman has lived for more than a year and a half using solar energy, a propane camping stove and rain water. In the end, she was found not guilty of not having a proper sewer or electrical system; but was guilty of not being hooked up to an approved water supply.

Oregon criminalizes permaculture; claims state ownership over all rainwater - ponds and swales restricted - jail time for violators Collecting rainwater -- and sunlight -- are practices taught in sustainable living, permaculture and throughout the green movement. Rainwater capture using ponds and swales is one of the most important strategies for restoring a local landscape. Jackson County, Oregon, has sentenced Gary Harrington to 30 days in jail and fined him over $1500, for the supposed "crime" of collecting rainwater on his own property. He owns over 170 acres of land in Jackson County. On that land, he has three ponds, and those ponds collect rainwater that falls on his land. Jackson County officials initially granted Harrington "permits" to build ponds back in 2003 but the state of Oregon revoked his permits a few years later, after he had already created the ponds, thus putting Harrington in the position of being a "water criminal" who was "stealing" rainwater from the state. Tom Paul, administrator of the Oregon Water Resources Department: "Oregon law that says all of the water in the state of Oregon is public water and if you want to use that water, either to divert it or to store it, you have to acquire a water right from the state of Oregon before doing that activity." follow link to read the rest City of Tulsa, Oklahoma, destroys woman's edible landscaping with over 100 varieties of medicinal plants A "neighbor" complained about her edible garden, which Denise just so happened to be using to naturally treat her diabetes, high blood pressure, and arthritis.

But City of Tulsa code enforcement officials, apparently doped up on their own sick delusions of perceived grandeur, decided that Denise's garden violated local code, even though it most clearly did not. In fact, nowhere in the local code is there even a hint of verbiage that suggests Denise's garden was in violation of any local laws whatsoever -- Tulsa city officials appear to have simply made up phony violations in order to target Denise.

Despite withdrawal of the permits, Harrington kept on defiantly collectin’ under the belief that the laws did not apply to his situation, adamant that the water was coming strictly from rain and snow melt and not from tributaries flowing into the Big Butte River as officials had claimed. Harrington tells CNSNews.com: “They issued me my permits. I had my permits in hand and they retracted them just arbitrarily, basically.

On one episode of Mythbusters, biometric security is visited and attempts are made to see if fingerprint scanners, for example, could be bypassed easily. Sure enough, the Mythbusters were able to beat the fingerprint scanners, several ways. It is not surprising that such a popular show, attempting to publicize possible faults in RFID technology, would garner the attention of certain companies. With RFID chips finding their way into our credit cards, passports, and many other aspects of our lives, trusting the technology with our security and privacy is becoming an everyday scenario. As Adam stated, some of the aspects of RFID that would be covered by Mythbusters, if they had their way, would include how hackable they are, how reliable they are, and how easy they are to track. Some security experts fear information stored on RFID chips could be read remotely by strangers, such as the personal information stored on credit cards or passports that use vulnerable RFID chips. While typically an RFID chip used in a credit card, for example, is designed to be read from only a short distance away, some believe as far as 40-feet away is possible. There are also concerns that the data encryption and other means of added security given to some RFID chips may be vulnerable.nondisclosed_email@example.com (TheLivingShadow)Sun, 06 Jul 2014 12:47:32 +0000 techhttps://b2012overleven.runboard.com/p3152,from=rss#post3152https://b2012overleven.runboard.com/p3152,from=rss#post3152The LED lights in your home could be spying on you! 8 min. vid explaining and showing how LED lights can convey sound by using a simple (and tiny) electronic board.nondisclosed_email@example.com (TheLivingShadow)Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:16:35 +0000 harrassmenthttps://b2012overleven.runboard.com/p2702,from=rss#post2702https://b2012overleven.runboard.com/p2702,from=rss#post2702 click to see video on stop&frisknondisclosed_email@example.com (TheLivingShadow)Sun, 21 Oct 2012 09:57:02 +0000 the right to bear armshttps://b2012overleven.runboard.com/p2694,from=rss#post2694https://b2012overleven.runboard.com/p2694,from=rss#post2694OBAMA DECLARES HE WANTS TO BAN GUNS Troops Ordered To Kill All Americans Who Do Not Turn In Guns The above article and 21 min. vid cover legislation that planned that will circumvent/supercede the 2nd Amendment for the right to own firearms.

Though the software is installed on most modern Android, BlackBerry and Nokia phones, Carrier IQ was virtually unknown until 25-year-old Trevor Eckhart of Connecticut analyzed its workings, revealing that the software secretly chronicles a user’s phone experience — ostensibly so carriers and phone manufacturers can do quality control. But now he’s released a video actually showing the logging of text messages, encrypted web searches and, well, you name it. Eckhart labeled the software a “rootkit,” and the Mountain View, California-based software maker threatened him with legal action and huge money damages. The Electronic Frontier Foundation came to his side last week, and the company backed off on its threats. The company told Wired.com last week that Carrier IQ’s wares are for “gathering information off the handset to understand the mobile-user experience, where phone calls are dropped, where signal quality is poor, why applications crash and battery life.” The company denies its software logs keystrokes. Eckhart’s 17-minute video clearly undercuts that claim. In a Thanksgiving post, we mentioned this software as one of nine reasons to wear a tinfoil hat.

If passed, this law will allow the government, under the command of the media companies, to censor the internet as they see fit, like China and Iran do, with the difference that the sites they decide to censor will be completely removed from the internet and not just in the US.

Book burnings have taken place through the ages for a very good reason: information is everything. And time and again, when the masses got too much of it according to authoritarian leadership, books got burned to weed out the common knowledge. It was there, then it was gone. Can THEY shut down the internet? The next NWO headquarters, Australia, is working on a pilot that will crush the freedom of information via the internet, first down under, then all over the world after their tests have been run. Let's look at the facts. Let's look at what's happening around the world. It used to be THEY would burn hardcopies, real books. But books have been outdated since the internet truly came into its own. So now a 'bookburning' would be destroying 'softcopies'. Who cares about a hardcopy when a softcopy can be sent to millions at the push of a button? That means that the next time fascist/communist/fundamentalist powers want to kill information, they will target the net. China's already there. The following article is about how the West is following suit. Knowing about the next 'book burning' in advance is important for you can acquire hardcopies before it's too late. IF, that is, you take the signs seriously. This sign then, of impending limiting legislation, is your wake-up call to start getting hardcopies of the information you value before it's too late. Since information is everything, it could quite possibly be the most important warning you will ever receive: internet freedom will not continue indefinately; act now. follow link to read rest of articlenondisclosed_email@example.com (TheLivingShadow)Wed, 28 Dec 2011 12:12:10 +0000 Wikileak's Spy Files: which countries spy howhttps://b2012overleven.runboard.com/p1124,from=rss#post1124https://b2012overleven.runboard.com/p1124,from=rss#post1124Wikileaks.org: Mass interception of entire populations is not only a reality, it is a secret new industry spanning 25 countries.
