It seems like almost everybody has a cell phone.
Refugees have them. Homeless people have them. Even people
who can’t afford food sometimes have them. Almost everybody,
that is, except me. I don’t use a cell phone because I believe that a cell
phone is part of a world-wide surveillance network. I believe that
it can be used to eavesdrop on whoever’s carrying it, whether or not he’s
actually using it at the time. It can be used to determine the location
of whoever’s carrying it, to determine his locations in the past, when he
was there, and with whom. Given the right situation, a cell phone can
be used as a weapon of assassination. The Israelis have done it.
Probably, the U.S. government has also done it, but with less publicity.
Cell phones have even been used as targets for missile strikes. Also,
cell phones appear to be addictive. People who have them don’t seem
able to be without them. Next, consider the relevant capabilities of AI. ECHELON pales by comparison. Even ignoring its other capabilities, AI will have access to every cell phone, regardless of the assurances of the apologists for world-wide surveillance. Already, there isn’t any such thing as a secure database or a secure cell phone. Eventually, AI will
be in control of not only the entire communications network but also of
the measures that will allegedly protect the privacy and security of its
users. AI will know where each person is, where he’s been, when and
how often he was there, and with whom. It will know of every meeting,
every rendezvous, every tryst. It will be able to notify a person’s
wife, his boss, his girlfriend, or his enemies. It will have audio
and video data as proof, or it can fabricate such data as needed.
It will be able to present that data anywhere or everywhere, at any time.
As a tool of intimidation, it will be able to contact anybody, and threaten
such action. Lately, an even more insidious device, the so-called smart phone, is being widely used. Cell phones were voluntary, at least in theory, but smart phones aren’t.
They’ve become prerequisites for access to various things that a person
needs. The apologists for the world-wide police state will assure
us that the possession of such a device is voluntary but, if somebody
is prohibited, for lack of a smart phone, from going someplace that he
needs to go, from doing something that he needs to do, or from having
access to something to which he needs to have access, then the devices
are mandatory. Things that will go to only a smart phone, access
information of one kind or another for example, are instances of the scheme
to make sure that the devices are mandatory, as just noted. In the miniseries Amerika, released in 1987, General Samanov, the Soviet National Advisor to occupied America, in the miniseries, said. “We must act before Americans begin to understand they have options. None of us anymore believe Americans will resist to the death. But there are other options. They could simply refuse to cooperate. They could unify in spirit.” I’m trying to not cooperate. I do have an old cell phone, but the account was closed long ago, after I began to
understand the implications of having a cell phone. I kept the old
cell phone because it also takes pictures and it’s compatible with my old
computer. When I want to take a picture, I put the battery in the cell
phone. After the picture is transferred into my computer, I remove
the battery from the cell phone. Removing the battery is a precaution
in addition to the closed cell phone account. That is, how do I know
for sure that, even with its account closed, the cell phone is really inaccessible
to the agencies? So, I remove the battery. My old style land
line provides all of the communication that I want, except for manipulative
schemes such as access information, mentioned above. That can be a
problem for me, so I have to improvise. Even so, I can still unplug
the land line when I don’t want to be bothered or monitored. I’ll concede that cell phones and smart phones are providing important information
about events around the world, and that the information might not be available
otherwise, but the significant risks to life and liberty, previously mentioned,
still exist. People should be free to decide for themselves whether
or not to have such devices, but they should not be deprived of things that
they need, merely because of the lack of one. Also, it would be a sensible
precaution for people who choose to have the devices to at least remove the
batteries
