Hey everyone… here is absolute proof, beyond a shadow of a doubt that the FBI or some other branch of the American Intelligence Services keeps a VERY keen eye on regular bloggers (then again, it could be some low-level nosey congressional pleb – as in Biden – lol).
And within just TEN MINUTES of publishing my post, they were already onto it!!!
I had just posted an article from the UK Daily Mail entitled: “Extraordinary Top Secret Call Between FBI and Scotland Yard ‘Tapped’ by Anonymous [video]” – you can find it directly beneath this post.
When I then went to my own weblog, I noticed the below (note the Revolving Globe)…
Hmmm, I immediately had a ‘gut feeling’ to check my WordPress stats (not something I usually do so quickly).
Well, what did I see? I saw… ‘Hostname: housegate10.house.gov‘ as in the below image (it’s a snapshot)…
OK… the ‘house.gov‘ part now got me interested, so I decided to dig a little deeper and check the IP address. And what did I find? Well, surprise, surprise… there it was in full view… The U.S. House of Representatives in Washington D.C.!!!
And as I said before, this happened within just TEN MINUTES of hitting the ‘publish button’ on the previous posting.
So to all of you FBI, CIA, House of Representatives spying scumbags, I say this: We KNOW what you’re doing, we know when you’re doing it… and as a token of gross appreciation … here’s a BIG… *Screw You* 
And considering that you filth are on the losing side, I would SERIOUSLY reconsider your strategy! Errr, yes SERIOUSLY!
Huh… maybe, just maybe you may think of making the RIGHT decision, and finally do what you originally signed up to do, which was… to serve and protect THE PEOPLE of the U.S.A!
That’s right, finally… DO YOUR FUCKING JOB! Is that too much to ask?

A confidential call between the FBI and Scotland Yard was recorded by hacking group Anonymous – the very people they were trying to catch, it was revealed today.
The group released a 15-minute tape of what appears to be a conference call last month about tracking and prosecuting the group’s members.
The top-secret conversation begins with a bizarre exchange between the U.S. and British agents, where they talk about cheese and eating ‘McDonald’s at the Pentagon’.
It is not known whether cheese and McDonald’s are codenames or if the transcript simply reveals what is really at the top of the list of priorities of our law enforcement officers. There is also one point when ‘Bruce’, the U.S. agent, says to the British agent ‘Stuart’: ‘I’m not sure if we’re the only two on right now or not’.
Anonymous also published a top secret email apparently sent by an FBI agent, which gave details and a password for accessing the call. The cyber raid is the most audacious and sinister yet to be carried out by the shadowy hacking group and shows how powerful Anonymous has become.
And in a display of their growing reach, Anonymous also claimed credit for defacing the website of the police force in Boston, Massachusetts, hours after attacking the Greek Ministry of Justice site.
‘The FBI might be curious how we’re able to continuously read their internal comms for some time now,’ the group gloated on Twitter. The recording, which has since been verified by the FBI, appears to have been edited to bleep out the names of some suspects being discussed. The Federal Bureau of Investigation said the information ‘was intended for law enforcement officers only and was illegally obtained.’
‘A criminal investigation is under way to identify and hold accountable those responsible,’ the law-enforcement bureau added.
‘If they haven’t secured their email it could potentially prejudice the investigation’
Karen Todner, lawyer for Ryan Cleary, linked with Anonymous
‘We are aware of the video, which relates to an FBI conference call involving a PCeU (Police Central e-crime Unit) representative,’ London’s Metropolitan Police said on Friday.
‘The matter is being investigated by the FBI. At this stage no operational risks to the MPS have been identified – however, we continue to carry out a full assessment.’ Amid the material published by Anonymous was a message purportedly sent by an FBI agent to international law enforcement agencies.
It invites his foreign counterparts to join the call to ‘discuss the on-going investigations related to Anonymous and other associated splinter groups’.
The email to officials in the UK, Ireland, the Netherlands, Sweden and France had a phone number and password for accessing the call. But only American and British officials can be heard on the recording. Neither the FBI agent nor others coded in on the call have commented. Those on the call talk about what legal strategy to pursue in the cases of Ryan Cleary and Jake Davis – two British suspects linked to Anonymous. They also discuss evidence against other suspects. Karen Todner, a lawyer for Cleary, said the recording could be ‘incredibly sensitive’.
She warned the breach could derail police work. ‘If they haven’t secured their email it could potentially prejudice the investigation,’ she said. Anonymous is an amorphous collection of online enthusiasts, pranksters and activists whose targets have included the Church of Scientology.
They have also run attacks against the music industry, and financial companies such as Visa and MasterCard. Following a spate of arrests globally, the group and its various offshoots have focused their attention on law enforcement, especially the FBI. Data security expert Graham Cluley said hackers were able to eavesdrop on the call because they had compromised an investigator’s emails. ‘The very people that (police) are trying to apprehend, could have been tuning in to their internal conversations,’ he wrote in a blog post.
Meanwhile, a message posted on the Boston police website on Friday said: ‘Anonymous hacks Boston Police website in retaliation for police brutality at OWS (Occupy Wall Street)’.
Boston’s Occupy movement set up camp in the city’s financial district for two months last autumn, but police dismantled it in December, citing public health and safety concerns.
On the Monday, January 30th edition of the Alex Jones Show, Alex talks with GCN radio host and privacy activist Katherine Albrecht.
She has authored and co-authored six books, including the award-winning bestseller ‘Spychips: How major corporations and government plan to track your every move with RFID’ and ‘The Spychips Threat: Why Christians should resist RFID and electronic surveillance’.
She is the Director of CASPIAN Consumer Privacy (Consumers Against Supermarket Privacy Invasion and Numbering), an 18,000-member grass-roots organization.

Among those who did no participate in 2011 census were ‘conscientious objectors’ to Lockheed Martin UK’s involvement!
At least 120 people have been convicted for failing to complete their 2011 census forms, according to figures from the Office for National Statistics.
While some may have simply forgotten, others see themselves as conscientious objectors who are being prosecuted for refusing to fill out the forms because of the involvement of the defence contractor Lockheed Martin UK, which won the £150m contract to run the census.
By this week the ONS had referred 369 cases to the Crown Prosecution Service; of those, 157 prosecutions have been brought to court, with 120 resulting in convictions. Those found guilty face a maximum fine of £1,000 and a criminal record. The remaining 37 cases are classified as “conversions”, where the defendant completed the census form at court.
The number of forms deliberately not filled in is unknown, but the ONS expected 24.5 million forms to be returned and received 22.9 million, a shortfall of 1.6 million. Once anomalies, such as vacant properties, have been taken into account, that number will fall.
John Marjoram, a local councillor and Green party mayor of the Cotswolds town of Stroud, refused to complete the census because of the involvement of Lockheed Martin UK. “When I was 18 I refused to fire a rifle on military service,” he told the Guardian. “I couldn’t live with myself if I collaborated with a military company.”
Marjoram received his summons in early January. “Just after Christmas two people knocked on the door. I was busy cooking lunch. They were very nice and pleasant and understanding of where I was coming from, and the next thing was I got a summons.”
Some of those being prosecuted have complained that they have been given court dates far from their homes. Marjoram’s trial is set not for the magistrates court in Stroud, but 32 miles away in Bristol. John Voysey, who like Marjoram is a Quaker, has been summoned to appear in court in Wrexham on 1 February, 65 miles from his home in Ludlow.
“I’ve been extradited to a foreign country,” said Voysey, 82, who first registered as a conscientious objector in 1947. “As soon as we heard that Lockheed Martin were involved we said we’re not going to fill it in.”
Lockheed Martin UK is a wholly owned subsidiary of the US defence contractor Lockheed Martin, which makes Trident nuclear missiles, cluster bombs and F-16 fighter jets. The UK subsidiary also provides the Royal Mail with address recognition technology. It was awarded the census contract in 2008 by the Labour government; overall the census was budgeted to have a total cost of £482m.
Groups opposed to Lockheed Martin’s involvement in the census like to point to a quote from Lorraine Martin, a company vice-president, who said: “We want to know what’s going on any time, any place on the planet.” However a company spokesman said: “No Lockheed Martin employee has access to the [census] data.”
Voysey expressed surprise that prosecutions were being pursued. “Before the election the Conservatives said this was going to be the last census. How can you punish people for something that is not going to happen again?”
Many of those accused under section eight of the 1920 Census Act say that they are being targeted because of their political beliefs. They wonder how the decision to prosecute almost 400 people was taken when so many forms were not returned.
A spokesman for the ONS, which runs the census in England and Wales, said: “Where there is evidence that householders have wilfully refused to complete a census form, the evidence has been presented to the Crown Prosecution Service, which then decides if a prosecution will go ahead.”
The rate of prosecutions represents a sharp increase on the last census, in 2001. Then there were only 43 prosecutions, resulting in 38 convictions. Previous censuses have seen varying levels of prosecution. The highest number of successful prosecutions was 692 in 1981. In 1991 there were 342, while 1951 saw just 57.
Anti-census campaign group Count Me Out said the number of prosecutions showed it had been a mistake to give the contract to Lockheed Martin UK, adding that this had made the census less accurate.
Dear Worldwide Friends…

Last week, 3 million of us beat back America’s attack on our Internet! — but there is an even bigger threat out there, and our global movement for freedom online is perfectly poised to kill it for good.
ACTA – a global treaty – could allow corporations to censor the Internet. Negotiated in secret by a small number of rich countries and corporate powers, it would set up a shadowy new anti-counterfeiting body to allow private interests to police everything that we do online and impose massive penalties — even prison sentences — against people they say have harmed their business.
Europe is deciding right now whether to ratify ACTA — and without them, this global attack on Internet freedom will collapse. We know they have opposed ACTA before, but some members of Parliament are wavering — let’s give them the push they need to reject the treaty. Sign the petition — we’ll do a spectacular delivery in Brussels when we reach 500,000 signatures:
http://www.avaaz.org/en/eu_save_the_internet_spread/?tta
It’s outrageous — governments of four fifths of the world’s people were excluded from the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) negotiations and unelected bureaucrats have worked closely with corporate lobbyists to craft new rules and a dangerously powerful enforcement regime. ACTA would initially cover the US, EU and 9 other countries, then be rolled out across the world. But if we can get the EU to say no now, the treaty will lose momentum and could stall for good.
The oppressively strict regulations could mean people everywhere are punished for simple acts such as sharing a newspaper article or uploading a video of a party where copyrighted music is played. Sold as a trade agreement to protect copyrights, ACTA could also ban lifesaving generic drugs and threaten local farmers’ access to the seeds they need. And, amazingly, the ACTA committee will have carte blanche to change its own rules and sanctions with no democratic scrutiny.
Big corporate interests are pushing hard for this, but the EU Parliament stands in the way. Let’s send a loud call to Parliamentarians to face down the lobbies and stand firm for Internet freedom. Sign now and send to everyone you know.
http://www.avaaz.org/en/eu_save_the_internet_spread/?tta
Last week, we saw the strength of our collective power when millions of us joined forces to stop the US from passing an Internet censorship law that would have struck at the heart of the Internet. We also showed the world how powerful our voices can be. Let’s raise them again to tackle this new threat.
With hope and determination,
Dalia, Alice, Pascal, Emma, Ricken, Maria Paz and the rest of the Avaaz team

The secret treaty: Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) and Its Impact on Access to Medicines
http://www.msfaccess.org/content/secret-treaty-anti-counterfeiting-trade-agreement-acta-and-its-impact-access-medicines
Polish politicians donned Guy Fawkes masks in parliament this week, in protest of a SOPA-style anti-piracy agreement signed by the government.
Members of the leftwing Palikot’s Movement produced apparently home-made masks – popularized by comic-turned-film V for Vendetta and now largely associated with hack-collective Anonymous – to show their disdain for the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) the AP reports.
ACTA was signed by the US and Canada last year, with Finland, France, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Romania and Greece all joining Poland in agreeing to the act this year. However, despite the governmental support, internet users and privacy activists have been outspoken in their opposition.
The Act, they say, removes safeguards that currently protect an ISP from the activity of its subscribers, something that is expected to increase the likelihood of internet providers reducing user privacy so as to avoid incriminating themselves. The Free Software Foundation has alleged that ACTA would also prevent sites from distributing apps that could be used to acquire content illegally, such as BitTorrent and other P2P software.
Local internet activist factions claiming to be part of Anonymous subsequently attacked various Polish government sites, resulting in sporadic downtime, while sites of groups supporting ACTA were also targeted. Polish Foreign Minister Radek Sikorski argued that the internet was at risk of becoming a place of “legal anarchy” and that “theft on a massive scale of intellectual property is not a good thing.”
Protests are raging on in Warsaw against the signing of a new treaty, which enforces intellectual property rights on the internet. Opponents say the international ACTA document is pure censorship, and a violation of human rights.
On Friday, the European Parliament’s rapporteur for the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement resigned in protest. Kader Arif said drafting of the controversial anti-piracy treaty was accompanied by “never-before-seen manoeuvres” by officials.
In Warsaw, extremely cold weather was definitely not an excuse for demonstrators. Friday’s protest culminated a week of mass rallies in Poland. Thursday’s signing of the deal by Warsaw drew tens of thousands onto the streets across the country to protest internet censorship.
