Snooping by satellite

(continued from previous page)

in Minnesota last year that embeds GPS devices in a customers' vehicles and offers insurance discounts based on where and when cars are driven.

Norwich Union, the United Kingdom's largest auto insurer, has experimented with a similar "pay as you drive" program involving 5,000 customers. Hertz has implanted GPS trackers in all of its rental cars, and trucking companies have used similar systems for years.

"If something's not totally secret, you don't have a reasonable expectation of privacy."

--Dan Solove, law professor,
George Washington University

GPS tracking systems are becoming cheap enough--the prices have dropped by about 50 percent in the last few years--that they've become attractive methods for tracing the whereabouts of teenagers and spouses. In 2003, South Carolina police thought they had discovered a bomb under a vehicle, but it turned out to be a GPS bug planted by a man's wife. In another case, a man in Colorado was convicted of tracking his wife with a GPS bug after she began divorce proceedings against him.

Solving crimes
GPS devices have been used to solve crimes from the petty to the heinous. Massachusetts police recently nabbed the driver of a snow removal truck who exposed himself at a Dunkin' Donuts, thanks to the Massachusetts Highway Department's requirement that state contractors outfit their trucks with GPS locators.

In 2000, when William Bradley Jackson called Spokane County, Wash., police to report that his daughter had vanished from the front yard that morning, detectives were immediately suspicious. Jackson seemed unusually nervous, and blood stains were discovered on his daughter's sheets.

Eight days later, after desperate searches failed to locate 9-year-old Valiree, detectives won court approval to secretly attach GPS tracking devices to Jackson's two vehicles.

The tactic worked; the GPS bugs led police to Valiree's shallow grave in a remote, dense forest about 50 miles from Spokane. The case ended in a murder conviction and 56-year prison sentence.

Complicating the privacy risks of tattletale cars is a pair of U.S. Supreme Court cases decided two decades ago. Those cases, U.S. v. Knotts and U.S. v. Karo, established that police don't need court approval to track suspects through a crude radio beeper.

In 1999, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals invoked that logic when deciding that federal agents did not need a court order to slap a GPS tracker on a truck owned by a man suspected of growing marijuana. "In placing the electronic devices on the undercarriage of the Toyota 4Runner, the officers did not pry into a hidden or enclosed area,"

my word

I think New York should make a law saying there should be a law saying there should be a judge's order before allowing police to track you with GPS.

Our INVINCIBLE Government

I think that the government shouldn't be allowed to do this type of thing, because the government abuses it's priviledges just as much as society. If they continue this type of thing there are going to be groups forming to take over the government and our entire country will be in havoc. They think they are INVINCIBLE and right now they do have more power than society but if they **** society off they need to remember there is more people in society than there is in the government. Anyway what you do to others will be done to you. Many people don't believe this because the result doesn't happen immediately. As for me I like to just stand back and watch it all unfold.

Heck of a lawyer

I personally know the lawyer involved. He is very successful in upstate NY. The article fails to reveal that he only received 29 days of rehab for the trace amount of drugs found on his persons at the time of arrest. As a goverment employee, which uses GPS and GIS computer mapping. I don't feel this is the proper use of a powerfull technology. Lets keep the privilage of technology to what it is intended and designed for. Funny us, we allways thought as an american that we had some freedom. Aren't we silly.

Tampering

Where I live, tampering with a vehicle is a crime. Any modifications to a vehicle without the owner's permission is a punishable offense. If the police committed a crime to track this suspect then whatever evidence they obtained was obtained illegally. It seems like that would be the avenue to pursue to defend against this.

Communism at is best

"The man who would choose security over freedom deserves neither."
- Thomas Jefferson

[Fray9]

Correction

Communism has nothing to do with the discussion.

At least true communism doesnt where by natural resources are distributed evenly among all people and it is their right to have their fair share.

But you must be speaking of the bastardized version that has been so prevailant through the ages where the government owns everything and doles it out as they see fit.

That seems more like an elaborate monarchy to me but thats just me.

Not that I disagree with your point. In fact I do.

I just hate it when people use it as a swear word when the world has never seen true communism which is arguably more free than capitalism.

No fear.

If you are involved in criminal activity, all means should be used to apprehend you. I have no fear of unwarrented arrest. Illegal activity surely limits my rights.

wrongheaded

In order for us to live in a free society, everyone must live under the same rules. Even some scum sucking criminal must be afforded the same rights as a law abiding person. Otherwise, no one is free.

As for your comment about having no fear, please take your head out of the sand. People are wrongly accused and convicted quite often. You are in extreme denial if you think it can't happen to you.

It is people like you who are allowing the government to take away our right systematically. You are what is wrong with america today.

But what if...?

But what if a crooked police department were to put a GPS on a car and then have a co-operative individual drive it places while the owner slept peacefully at home, and then accuse the owner of having gone somewhere incriminating? (ooohh nooo, that could not possibly happen heeeerrrreeee in Amerrrica... oooohhh nooooo.......)

Undoc Yourself

Let's all take a lesson from the millions of our Mexican brethern who come to pay us a surprise visit and become undocumented. It has a lot of benefits. So far as I can tell nowdays, there is no benefit to being a documented person.

From Max Hedroom, episode 6.
Blanks 5/5/87. The "Blanks" are the invisible people, the ones who don't appear on any computer records. Simon Peller, newly elected city official, is doing his best to put them all in prison and the Blanks, in return, are doing their best to wreck the entire computer network, which doesn't exactly endear them to the now-TV-less general public.

You have no privacy, no rights, and the Bill of Rights is DEAD!

You didn't really think that you had any privacy left, did you? Never heard of the US Patriot Act?

Here: www.epic.org/privacy/terrorism/usapatriot

They don't even have to tell you if they go into your house and take things, anymore, or serve you with a search warrant.

People have been warning you about your vanishing privacy for decades.

Those like James Bovard wrote rather eye-opening books like "Shakedown: How the Government Screws You from A to Z" and "Lost Rights : The Destruction of American Liberty". Robert Ellis Smith wrote another good one called "Our Vanishing Privacy : And What you Can Do to Protect Yours".

Yet there's idiots who willingly give out their Social Security Numbers here in the US to practically everybody, even stores, just to get discounts on their products.

Guess they don't realize that you can't change your SSN, and it can be used to get credit cards in your name and services like utlities. Once that number gets out, you're screwed for life! Want to see how easy it is to get this information? Go to an information broker. LOL Cnet itself did a segment on them once with Richard Hart.

Haven't been to the library lately? How about the music store?

Try one of Jello Biafra's 'spoken word' albums. You'll hear about all kinds of things you'll never hear the mainstream news media tell you about.

As for the Bill of Rights, itself; I don't think that any of them have survived intact, and several of them, if taken in the spirit that Thomas Jefferson intended would be deemed illegal now.

This may give you a clue: www.cyberwolfman.com/quotes.htm

Even the 13th Amendment (the one regarding slavery) is only good for toilet paper, now. They allow groups to promote slavery in chat programs all over the Internet. Don't believe me? Try looking for things in them like gor and gorean. They've virtually taken over the 3D chat programs, too.

Don't bother complaining to the FBI about slavery, though. Many of us already have, and with no results, or replies to our letters. Don't think they care as long as it's not in the mainstream news media. If it's not, it might as well not exist.

Can't wait until you guys find out about the roboflies... The stuff in the sci-fi books like Neal Stephenson's "The Diamond Age" are being created in the labs right now.

But I've already got my own little 'eye on the world' (www.cyberwolfman.com/vidfeeds.jpg). ;-)

ip phone multicasting... gprs jamming

the revolution will be broadcast, and anonymous...... there are various mods around for jaming gprs broadcasts that are often used to transmit gps cordinates... I have even experienced some cellphone mods for disrupting wifi connections here in honolulu... gprs triangulation has been used quite extensivly as well as the gps devices... I would like to see some bluetooth scripts for automatically putting our phones in "flight mode" or blocking the transmition all together when we hop into a car or something.. similiar to the bluetooth ring concept... but allowing us to "pop-up on the radar" when we are ready to recieve calls.. takes away from the possiblity of meeting suprises when arriving somewhere, especially when overseas.. lol... <a class="jive-link-external" href="http://www.gps-practice-and-fun.com/index.html" target="_newWindow">http://www.gps-practice-and-fun.com/index.html</a>

Snooping goes on in this country, because snooping is being allowed. There should be a regulation on satellite surveillance, so that individuals are not victimized by satellites. Satellites can not only be used in gps systems in this country, but a satellite can be used to do human thought monitoring and neurophone harassment. There is no justification for harassment in this country.
A good website to check on this is surveillanceissues.com

While this subject clearly seems to have brought out the nut jobs, it is important that we do not allow government to be involved in our lives any more than absolutely required and keep in mind that government exists to serve the people, not the other way around! One good way for police to use GPS tracking is to monitor police cars and stop them from speeding on our public roadways without lights and siren on and endangering me, you and our families. No use of tracking should be undertaken with the knowledge and consent of those being tracked.

[feddupwithcops]

I think the public should get to track where cops are at all times. There is never one around when you need one.
