An anti cyber-bully bill

That just so happens to allow warrantless wiretaps.

America gets force fed surveillance because terrorism.

Every time it happens up here "It's for the children"

In an interview with the Washington Post published Nov. 15, Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. said the department is conducting a "a comprehensive review of all criminal cases in which the government has used evidence gathered through its warrantless surveillance program" and that they "will be, where appropriate, providing defendants with information that they should have so they can make their own determinations about how they want to react to it."

Droning is also a kind of outsourcing of policing, but one that doesn’t rely on internalization. Psychologically droned populations live in constant terror, and this affects their behavior, their health, their politics, their decisions, and their values. They don’t have to internalize a surveiling gaze–”the constant reminder of imminent death” is always there, either in the presence of the drones themselves on in the psychological experience of constant anxiety. This state of terror limits people’s capacity to respond to droning, to one another, to life’s regular struggles.

Somehow, Banksy flits through and past and between our manifold lenses undetected, unknown - a corporeal ghost in a digital world. His finest work, his crowning achievement, is his anonymity, his resistance to being caught, whether by cops or collectors or fans. It’s a cat-and-mouse game, with Bloomberg – the most powerful, wealthiest man in New York – railing against yet struggling to find a Brit who likes to stencil on walls. That the latter is winning is thrilling.

American police officers may soon be able to use unmanned aircraft not only for surveillance, but also for offensive action. The drones may be equipped to fire rubber rounds and tear gas.

So, is the revolution happening soon?
