Federal Agents Exposed For Planting Surveillance Microphones in PublicBy Kevin Samson Major cities have uncovered several secret operations in recent years that have sparked outrage. In 2013, Seattle police were forced to deactivate a hidden WiFi mesh network system that was funded by Homeland Security. This past month a Phoenix, Arizona resident documented a strange box that appeared on his utility pole; it was later claimed by the bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and Explosives, a branch of the U.S. Department of Justice the ATF would neither confirm nor deny ongoing surveillance in the area. Now the heavily populated Bay Area of San Francisco, home to nearly 1 million residents and countless millions more visitors, has been exposed to have been part of an ongoing operation to secretly record public conversations, perhaps dating from 2010. Emphasis added: Jeff Harp, a KPIX 5 security analyst and former FBI special agent said, They put microphones under rocks, they put microphones in trees, they plant microphones in equipment. I mean, theres microphones that are planted in places that people dont think about, because thats the intent! (Source) Worse, it appears to have been done without a warrant as part of an investigation into alleged fraudulent activity committed by a group of real estate investors. Why exactly this should subject the public at large to potentially have their private conversations recorded as well has not yet been fully explained. We are clearly heading into very dangerous territory as all of our data is being opened up for scrutiny by government, while its own operations are being done in secret using the malleable framework of crime and terrorism to justify the means to its ends. The good news is that an increasingly aware public, as well as a rising number of courageous whistleblowers, are shining new light about the depths to which our civil liberties are being erased. Stay vigilant and take something from the governments playbook if you see something, say something. Image Credit: TheFreeThoughtProject.com Kevin Samson writes for selfnewsPost.com.

And end up just like LaVoy Finicum. Great idea Mr. Filthy Baby Incinerator. He has a point. Out right to privacy is being completely violated and denied to us, whether in public or in our homes. We have The Right to privacy unless by PERSONAL warrant served directly to you. The felons, illegal immigrants, or immigrants have no rights without valid citizenship. You must have been absent that day in civics class or youre too young to have taken civics class because they stopped teaching it so the uninformed could have the crazy ideas you have. Any person within DUHmericas borders has the same rights under the constitution including those quoted from your comment. Just the way it should be. Just like you have the same rights as any citizen of whatever country you might visit. I stress might because its apparent you dont get out much. The name is America and you do not have the same rights as citizens in other countries. You are a guest only and are treated as such. Illegals are as the name states. They are not legal citizens with protection under the Constitution. They have only been given a free pass because of the current adninstration. Im willing to bet YOU are a liberal and a non-vet. No its DUHmerica because of dogshit stupid, ignorant, illiterate, uninformed and damned proud of it DUHmericans who spew the nonsense I corrected. Just for the record Im not a liberal or a conservative and my DD-214 is in my safe deposit box. Have a great DUHmerican day, mind the gap between train and platform. Off you go now, bye. you are the one who is confused. The illegal aliens do not have the same rights as American citizens. They may have some rights to due process but the present WH administration has the whole system messed up because the president doesnt know how to enforce laws..just break them! As a vet you should know better! Put that in your safety deposit box! Kindly cite exactly the case law supporting your assertion. With drones buzzing around , and televisions that can see and hear those that watch them in their homes , and cell phones that have the ability to listen in to people even when they are not in use, ( yes, those things are a reality ) who can actually feel that they have privacy now? Is There A Thing To Detects Theses Mics They Have To Run On Current ? im sure the pelosi tards in the gay i mean bay area dont mind at all Jam the transmitters. Since the authorities wont admit they exist, they wont come for you and prove that youre bothering their activities. Spray paint over cameras, take a flathead screwdriver to microphones and drip battery acid onto spy transmitters. Make the commie vermin go bankrupt just replacing their paranoid spy tech Overreaction has brought the west to the ridiculous position where a dozen malicious phone calls could bring whole countries to a standstill a few airports, a military base, a few superstores, a few rail hubs, the stock exchange. Game over! The west is closed for business. Please stay at home. We screwed up. The Government is targeting Citizens for Surveillance Crimes with their Networked Groups of Criminal personnel, contractors/operatives/informants.. People who are Politically Incorrect and Outspoken, including selfnewss are at High Risk for being Targeted for Surveillance Crimes. I have been targeted for ongoing burglaries for over 4 years which the Police have done nothing about. The Government Criminals are Above the Law and openly robbing citizens. Even my safe deposit box was burglarized and my cat was tortured by their organized crime group. Anyone that can be profiled as a Soft Target is at high risk for being victimized by networked organized government operatives and agents. OTHERS are speaking out about being targeted for Surveillance, Gangstalking and Targeted I believe there should be a Class Action Lawsuit Exposing the Government Crimes that Citizens have been targeted for. God only knows how many other people have been targeted by this Networked Group I just watched the Kay Griggs interview over the weekend. Quite shocking to say the least. Appalled would more aptly describe it. Im not shocked by anything our or other governments have and are doing anymore. Can we be sure that it is OUR government picking up information? Mark the bathrooms XX or XY, that should solve over 99% of the problem. .. As far as allowing illegals to become instant citizens upon crossing a border ,if we allow this then shouldnt a fence jumper who makes it into the White House be President. ???
