Tories, Tor, and SelectQuote

The early American "Tories" loyal to the British crown had it tough

during the period leading to the American Revolution. After all, they

were ratting out our founding fathers to the British. In their view George

Washington and his ragtag band of smugglers were cheating King

George III out of his rightful customs and duties. Tyranny is expensive,

George needed to tax anything that moved.

Tories felt you need not fear general warrants, so long as you have

nothing to hide. And who wouldn't want British troops living in your

house? They'd be like having a shining example for your children sitting

right in your living room. You'd never be tempted into sedition, freedom

just gives people a chance to screw up. If it felt like only the wealthy

and the elite far away and had a say in your government, well, they

were wealthy and elite for a reason.

Recently, King George III has reached out from the grave to rally hissupporters. It's almost like it was him speaking through the Drug

Enforcement Administration, when they proposed that using the NSA

and to bust in and take American's private communications without a warrantwas legal. After the DEA

obtained evidence they could backtrack and make up a story to have a legal reason to get a search

warrant. This is even better than King George's general warrant! Basically they're in everybody's stuff, and

they now just recreate a hypothetical set of legal actions that could have occurred, later.

This is even more ripe for abuse and when you consider that the DEA is focused on consensual crime.

Consensual crimes are usually lacking in a victim. So we're teaching them to lie about evidence, we are

also allowing them to go after someone when there's not even reason enough for a search warrant. Put it

all together and you have no victim making a complaint, no evidence of a crimeto anyone not in theinvestigation, and investigators are trained to lie about evidence.

I used to run a Torexit node, it was operational during the periodin which I suffered from police

misconductand heard threats that my daughter would be killed. The gist of this is that people concerned

about their anonymity online were basically sharing mine in connection during that time. Usually these are

people like Chinese trying to get real news from Taiwan or bloggers or activists from authoritarian zones

where publishing could get them in deep trouble.

Criminals can use Tor as well. If a criminal got assigned to my exit node it would look to the NSA like I

was engaged in criminal activity. I don't like to sound like I'm having delusions of grandeur. I understand

that the government has far more important things to do than to watch me, and even if that were tripped

some flags it wouldn't take long to rule me out as a drug dealer. The U.S. government knows about Tor,they created it.

Everything that has happened could simply be due to already reportedmisconduct within the SFPD,

without federal cooperation. If if there were any way to find out if the NSA and surveillance was the

precursor of police misconduct and attempts to harm my daughter, it might tell us about how quickly the

program is spiraling into abuse. Corruption or political targeting certainly could lead to a protracted and

dirty investigation.

There are a few reasons to consider the possibility that the NSA dragnet was in effect here. I was

approached by strangers on the street who wanted to buy drugs. If chatter between officers is to be

believed, in a February incident the captain at Southern Station wanted me to be arrested. I was not,

because there was nothing remotely supporting an arrest at the scene. This does make it look however

like pressure was coming from above to falsify or plant evidence. False evidence was created, and there's

no possibility that that evidence was real. Evidence was destroyed.

The changes in attitude towards me at work might also be explained by government agents making up

stories in order to create a parallel construction. Even if no one believed, criminals and child predatorslike

some of those working at SelectQuote would be alerted to the opportunity. I had worked at this company

with nothing but glowing reviewsfor seven before my final year in which these incidents occurred.

One should remember that in 2010 libertarian viewpoints were pretty fringe. Today there is more

dialogue in the major parties coming from a libertarian standpoint. I am a registered member of the

Libertarian Party, and I was during the time period in question. But that does that qualify me for more

illegal searches and more fabrication of evidence?

I'd like to think no, but the DEA insists it has rights to all your communications without a warrant, so long

as they can construct a legal trail later. If we're going to ignore the Constitution, might it makes sense to

treat members of opposition parties as political criminals?

Of particular interest to me would be if other targets of illegal data collection have also had children

taken away on fabricated evidence. This could be hard to tell. If the officer had not made some mistakes(or had not saw through the set-up) when creating his story, it would just be myself and my daughter

against him. That should be enough of the burden of proof if anyone can do this research, however. I have

a feeling that the government might be reluctant to answer FOIA requests on the issue.

Certainly, I think that is the most serious issue. We may be seeing the precursors to dissidents'

children being taken away for reeducation. Also, children placed into foster care are more vulnerable,

including more vulnerable to sex trafficking. It should be an extreme situation before the government raises

children in lieu of the children's own parents.

The effects on law enforcement officers themselves should not be discounted. This system seems

specially designed to seduce users into hubris. They get to investigate their targets without restraint, and

are told America's very existence is at stake. A few years down the road, they might find they've destroyedthe life of a fellow citizen, simply because he made some statement somewhere that was outside of

the political orthodoxyof the Republicratic Party.

That future is not good for anyone.
