The Whole Point of the Internet of Things is So Big Brother Can Spy on You



The government is already spying on us through spying on us through our computers, phones, cars, buses, streetlights, at airports and on the street, via mobile scanners and drones, through our credit cards and smart meters (see this), television, doll, and in many other ways.

The CIA wants to spy on you through your dishwasher and other “smart” appliances. Slate reported in 2012:

Watch out: the CIA may soon be spying on you—through your beloved, intelligent household appliances, according to Wired.

In early March, at a meeting for the CIA’s venture capital firm In-Q-Tel, CIA Director David Petraeus reportedly noted that “smart appliances” connected to the Internet could someday be used by the CIA to track individuals. If your grocery-list-generating refrigerator knows when you’re home, the CIA could, too, by using geo-location data from your wired appliances, according to SmartPlanet.

“The current ‘Internet of PCs’ will move, of course, toward an ‘Internet of Things’—of devices of all types—50 to 100 billion of which will be connected to the Internet by 2020,” Petraeus said in his speech. He continued:

Items of interest will be located, identified, monitored, and remotely controlled through technologies such as radio-frequency identification, sensor networks, tiny embedded servers, and energy harvesters—all connected to the next-generation Internet using abundant, low cost, and high-power computing—the latter now going to cloud computing, in many areas greater and greater supercomputing, and, ultimately, heading to quantum computing.


Last year, U.S. Intelligence Boss James Clapper said that the government will spy on Americans through the internet of things (“IoT”):

In the future, intelligence services might use the [IoT] for identification, surveillance, monitoring, location tracking, and targeting for recruitment, or to gain access to networks or user credentials.

Yves Smith commented at the time:

Oh, come on. The whole point of the IoT is spying. The officialdom is just trying to persuade you that it really is a big consumer benefit to be able to tell your oven to start heating up before you get home.

The Guardian notes:

As a category, the internet of things is useful to eavesdroppers both official and unofficial for a variety of reasons, the main one being the leakiness of the data.

***

There are a wide variety of devices that can be used to listen in, and some compound devices (like cars) that have enough hardware to form a very effective surveillance suite all by themselves.

***

There’s no getting around the fundamental creepiness of the little pinhole cameras in new smart TVs (and Xbox Kinects, and laptops, and cellphones), but the less-remarked-on aspect – the audio – may actually be more pertinent to anyone with a warrant trying to listen in. Harvard’s Berkman Center for Internet and Society observed that Samsung’s voice recognition software in its smart TVs had to routinely send various commands “home” to a server where they were processed for relevant information; their microphones are also always on, in case you’re trying to talk to them. Televisions are also much easier to turn on than they used to be: a feature creeping into higher-end TVs called “wake on LAN” allows users to power on televisions over the internet (this is already standard on many desktop PCs).

***

A cyberattack on toymaker VTech exposed the personal data of 6.4m children last year; it was a sobering reminder of the vulnerability of kids on the web. But technology waits for no man. Mattel’s Hello Barbie doll works the same way the Nest and Samsung voice operators do, by passing kids’ interactions into the cloud and returning verbal responses through a speaker in the doll. HereO manufactures a watch for kids with a GPS chip in it; Fisher-Price makes a WiFi-enabled stuffed animal. Security researchers at Rapid7 looked at both and found that they were easy to compromise on company databases, and in the case of the watch, use to locate the wearer.

In a separate article, the Guardian pointed out:

Just a few weeks ago, a security researcher found that Google’s Nest thermostats were leaking users’ zipcodes over the internet. There’s even an entire search engine for the internet of things called Shodan that allows users to easily search for unsecured webcams that are broadcasting from inside people’s houses without their knowledge.

While people voluntarily use all these devices, the chances are close to zero that they fully understand that a lot of their data is being sent back to various companies to be stored on servers that can either be accessed by governments or hackers.

Author and persistent Silicon Valley critic Evgeny Morozov summed up the entire problem with the internet of things and “smart” technology in a tweet last week:

In case you are wondering what “smart” – as in “smart city” or “smart home” – means:

Surveillance
Marketed
As
Revolutionary
Technology

anyone watching you on a camera, no matter where it is for no legit reason should have their ass kicked by angry mobs.

every single person now understands, if they hold up their camera to point it at you it's a hostile act, but yet they tolerate 'authority' video taping them everywhere they go, the fucking police are running around putting up hidden cameras all over the place. just a country full of unsophisticated dumbasses who are too dumb to care about privacy or conceive of why it's important. Their children are always already forced to fuck blacks and they don't care. why don't they care?? it's because they don't love eachother, they don't even love their own children, despite pretending to, even when they pretend to care about their own children it's really just an excuse to cast aspersions or express contempt for others who are 'creepy'

they have so many of these public wifi spots now, and they suck so bad, if you can connect to them all they do is constantly connect/disconnect. I figured out that it's because they aren't really there to give you internet access they are connecting/disconnecting to all the cars driving by , scanning their wifi, they are just there to snoop on everyone's wifi

[NewsJunkie]

the other utility I'm beginning to notice is they are trying to turn the internet into perfect deception, even more deceptive and stupid than mainstream media.
It's being turned into gigantic disinfo machine, to lie to you in ways main stream media can't. to deceive you more thoroughly and more diabolically. every forum is full of giggling kikes trying to analyze how to brainwash goyim by creating false consensus/banning anything intelligent.

I hate the fake news spammers on every forum that seem to get passes from the jewish forum moderators, spamming their idiotic UFO shit. they bury any truth in 99% lies so nobody really knows what to believe, it all seems like a bunch of bullshit you know but at the same time if you say something revealing they got hordes of spies ready to hone in on you

Just pretend you
're one of these guys when you go into town.

I think they would mainly do this to suspected terrorist or hardened criminal on ankle motoring. But then again, I know ol big daddy Demogods wants to know who the so called truth seekers are so they can label them the big R.

I can see this happening under an Oprah or snoopdog, or a warren presidency. But I've said this before and its worth repeating, the next time these loony DemocRATS take full control over this country with a liberal freaked out president who would be hell bent to go full swing and make sure our voices would and could no longer exist, is going to be after the rapture my friends.

Then and only then they will have their wish to be in a majority non -white country/world full of sharia Law and criminal nuts controlling their sorry left behind white asses. Good luck to them as they march to the tune of bongo drums to their dungins and to their masters house to clean nigger vomit up'

I will be watching from my home in paradise.

And one more comment on your thread. They have in place what they call license plate tracker or readers that can be detected from space via satellite the moment you pull your vehicle out your garage. If your a wanted criminal or if you fall behind on a car payment this detector will read your license plate and send an instant ping to the repossession folks and they will dispatch them immediately to follow you, Shit by the time you come out the gas station to pump your gas your vehicle is gone.
