Governments around the world are demanding new dragnet location surveillance powers to contain the COVID-19 outbreak .
But before the public allows their governments to implement such systems , governments must explain to the public how these systems would be effective in stopping the spread of COVID-19 .
There ’ s no questioning the need for far-reaching public health measures to meet this urgent challenge , but those measures must be scientifically rigorous , and based on the expertise of public health professionals .
Governments have not yet met that standard , nor even shown that extraordinary location surveillance powers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ COVID-19 .
Unless they can , there ’ s no justification for their intrusions on privacy and free speech , or the disparate impact these intrusions would have on vulnerable groups .
Indeed , governments have not even been transparent about their plans and rationales .
EFF has long opposed location surveillance programs that can turn our lives into open books for scrutiny by police , surveillance-based advertisers , identity thieves , and stalkers .
Many sensitive inferences can be drawn from a visit to a health center , a criminal defense lawyer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ protest planning meeting .
Moreover , fear of surveillance chills and deters free speech and association .
And all too often , surveillance disparately burdens people of color .
What ’ s more , whatever personal data is collected by government can be misused by its employees , stolen by criminals and foreign governments , and unpredictably redirected by agency leaders to harmful new uses .
China reportedly responded to the COVID-19 crisis by building new infrastructures to track the movements of massive numbers of identifiable people .
Israel tapped into a vast @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people who came into close contact with known virus carriers .
That nation has sent quarantine orders based on this surveillance .
About a dozen countries are reportedly testing a spy tool built by NSO Group that uses huge volumes of cellphone location data to match the location of infected people to other people in their vicinity ( NSO ’ s plan is to not share a match with the government absent such a person ’ s consent ) .
In the United States , the federal government is reportedly seeking , from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , large volumes of location data that is de-identified ( that is , after removal of information that identifies particular people ) and aggregated ( that is , after combining data about multiple people ) .

That ’ s one reason EFF @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whether government agencies may deploy new surveillance technology .
Because new government dragnet location surveillance powers are such a menace to our digital rights , governments should not be granted these powers unless they can show the public how these powers would actually help , in a significant manner , to contain COVID-19 .
Even if governments could show such efficacy , we would still need to balance the benefit of the government ’ s use of these powers against the substantial cost to our privacy , speech , and equality of opportunity @ @ @ @ @ @ @ government ’ s use of these powers , we would still need safeguards , limits , auditing , and accountability measures .
In short , new surveillance powers must always be necessary and proportionate .
But today , we can ’ t balance those interests or enumerate necessary safeguards , because governments have not shown how the proposed new dragnet location surveillance powers could help contain COVID-19 .
The following are some of the points we have not seen the government publicly address .
1 .
Are the location records sought sufficiently granular @ @ @ @ @ @ @ transmittal distance of each other ?
In many cases , we question whether such data will actually be useful to healthcare professionals .
This may seem paradoxical .
After all , location data is sufficiently precise for law enforcement to place suspects at the scene of a crime , and for juries to convict largely on the basis of that evidence .
But when it comes to tracking the spread of a disease that requires close personal contact , data generated by current technology generally can ’ t reliably tell us whether two @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of six feet for social distancing .
For example , cell site location information ( CSLI ) —the records generated by mobile carriers based on which cell towers a phone connects to and when—is often only able to place a phone within a zone of half a mile to two miles in urban areas .
The area is even wider in areas with less dense tower placement .
GPS sensors built directly into phones can do much better , but even GPS is only accurate to a 16-foot radius .
These and other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ better accuracy , but there ’ s no guarantee that a given phone can be located with six-foot precision at a given time .
2 .
Do the cellphone location records identify a sufficiently large and representative portion of the overall population ?
Even today , not everyone has a cellphone , and some people do not regularly carry their phones or connect them to a cellular network .
The population that carries a networked phone at all times is not representative of the overall population ; for example , people without phones @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
3 .
Has the virus already spread so broadly that contact tracing is no longer a significant way to reduce transmission ?
If community transmission is commonplace , contact tracing may become impractical or divert resources from more effective containment methods .
There might be scenarios other than precise , person-to-person contact tracing where location data could be useful .
We ’ ve heard it suggested , for example , that this data could be used to track future flare-ups of the virus by observing general patterns of people ’ s movements @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when transmission is less common , widespread testing may be more effective at containment , as may be happening in South Korea .
4 .
Will health-based surveillance deter people from seeking health care ?
Already , there are reports that people subject to COVID-based location tracking are altering their movements to avoid embarrassing revelations .
If a positive test result will lead to enhanced location surveillance , some people may avoid testing .
As our society struggles with COVID-19 , far narrower “ big data ” surveillance proposals may emerge .
Perhaps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ proposals are necessary and proportionate .
If so , EFF would seek safeguards , including mandatory expiration when the health crisis ends , independent supervision , strict anti-discrimination rules , auditing for efficacy and misuse , and due process for affected people .
But for now , government has not shown that new dragnet location surveillance powers would significantly help to contain COVID-19 .
It is the government ’ s job to show the public why this would work .

Governments around the world are demanding new dragnet location surveillance powers to contain the COVID-19 outbreak. But before the public allows their governments to implement such systems, governments must explain to the public how these systems would be effective in stopping the spread of COVID-19. There’s no questioning the need for far-reaching public health measures to meet this urgent challenge, but those measures must be scientifically rigorous, and based on the expertise of public health professionals.
Governments have not yet met that standard, nor even shown that extraordinary location surveillance powers would make a significant contribution to containing COVID-19. Unless they can, there’s no justification for their intrusions on privacy and free speech, or the disparate impact these intrusions would have on vulnerable groups. Indeed, governments have not even been transparent about their plans and rationales.
The Costs of Location Surveillance
EFF has long opposed location surveillance programs that can turn our lives into open books for scrutiny by police, surveillance-based advertisers, identity thieves, and stalkers. Many sensitive inferences can be drawn from a visit to a health center, a criminal defense lawyer, an immigration clinic, or a protest planning meeting.
Moreover, fear of surveillance chills and deters free speech and association. And all too often, surveillance disparately burdens people of color. What’s more, whatever personal data is collected by government can be misused by its employees, stolen by criminals and foreign governments, and unpredictably redirected by agency leaders to harmful new uses.
Emerging Dragnet Location Surveillance
China reportedly responded to the COVID-19 crisis by building new infrastructures to track the movements of massive numbers of identifiable people. Israel tapped into a vast trove of cellphone location data to identify people who came into close contact with known virus carriers. That nation has sent quarantine orders based on this surveillance. About a dozen countries are reportedly testing a spy tool built by NSO Group that uses huge volumes of cellphone location data to match the location of infected people to other people in their vicinity (NSO’s plan is to not share a match with the government absent such a person’s consent).
In the United States, the federal government is reportedly seeking, from mobile app companies like Facebook and Google, large volumes of location data that is de-identified (that is, after removal of information that identifies particular people) and aggregated (that is, after combining data about multiple people). According to industry executives, such data might be used to predict the next virus hotspot. Facebook has previously made data like this available to track population movements during natural disasters.
But re-identification of de-identified data is a constant infosec threat. De-identification of location data is especially hard, since location data points serve as identification of their own. Also, re-identification can be achieved by correlating de-identified data with other publicly available data like voter rolls, and with the oceans of information about identifiable people that are sold by data brokers. While de-identification might in some cases reduce privacy risks, this depends on many factors that have not yet been publicly addressed, such as careful selection of what data to aggregate, and the minimum thresholds for aggregation. In the words of Prof. Matt Blaze, a specialist in computer science and privacy:
One of the things we have learned over time is that something that seems anonymous, more often than not, is not anonymous, even if it’s designed with the best intentions.
Disturbingly, most of the public information about government’s emerging location surveillance programs comes from anonymous sources, and not official explanations. Transparency is a cornerstone of democratic governance, especially now, in the midst of a public health crisis. If the government is considering such new surveillance programs, it must publicly explain exactly what it is planning, why this would help, and what rules would apply. History shows that when government builds new surveillance programs in secret, these programs quickly lead to unjustified privacy abuses. That’s one reason EFF has long demanded transparent democratic control over whether government agencies may deploy new surveillance technology.
Governments Must Show Their Work
Because new government dragnet location surveillance powers are such a menace to our digital rights, governments should not be granted these powers unless they can show the public how these powers would actually help, in a significant manner, to contain COVID-19. Even if governments could show such efficacy, we would still need to balance the benefit of the government’s use of these powers against the substantial cost to our privacy, speech, and equality of opportunity. And even if this balancing justified government’s use of these powers, we would still need safeguards, limits, auditing, and accountability measures. In short, new surveillance powers must always be necessary and proportionate.
But today, we can’t balance those interests or enumerate necessary safeguards, because governments have not shown how the proposed new dragnet location surveillance powers could help contain COVID-19. The following are some of the points we have not seen the government publicly address.
1. Are the location records sought sufficiently granular to show whether two people were within transmittal distance of each other? In many cases, we question whether such data will actually be useful to healthcare professionals.
This may seem paradoxical. After all, location data is sufficiently precise for law enforcement to place suspects at the scene of a crime, and for juries to convict largely on the basis of that evidence. But when it comes to tracking the spread of a disease that requires close personal contact, data generated by current technology generally can’t reliably tell us whether two people were closer than the CDC-recommended radius of six feet for social distancing.
For example, cell site location information (CSLI)—the records generated by mobile carriers based on which cell towers a phone connects to and when—is often only able to place a phone within a zone of half a mile to two miles in urban areas. The area is even wider in areas with less dense tower placement. GPS sensors built directly into phones can do much better, but even GPS is only accurate to a 16-foot radius. These and other technologies like Bluetooth can be combined for better accuracy, but there’s no guarantee that a given phone can be located with six-foot precision at a given time.
2. Do the cellphone location records identify a sufficiently large and representative portion of the overall population? Even today, not everyone has a cellphone, and some people do not regularly carry their phones or connect them to a cellular network. The population that carries a networked phone at all times is not representative of the overall population; for example, people without phones skew towards lower-income people and older people.
3. Has the virus already spread so broadly that contact tracing is no longer a significant way to reduce transmission? If community transmission is commonplace, contact tracing may become impractical or divert resources from more effective containment methods.
There might be scenarios other than precise, person-to-person contact tracing where location data could be useful. We’ve heard it suggested, for example, that this data could be used to track future flare-ups of the virus by observing general patterns of people’s movements in a given area. But even when transmission is less common, widespread testing may be more effective at containment, as may be happening in South Korea.
4. Will health-based surveillance deter people from seeking health care? Already, there are reports that people subject to COVID-based location tracking are altering their movements to avoid embarrassing revelations. If a positive test result will lead to enhanced location surveillance, some people may avoid testing.
Conclusion
As our society struggles with COVID-19, far narrower “big data” surveillance proposals may emerge. Perhaps public health professionals will show that such proposals are necessary and proportionate. If so, EFF would seek safeguards, including mandatory expiration when the health crisis ends, independent supervision, strict anti-discrimination rules, auditing for efficacy and misuse, and due process for affected people.
But for now, government has not shown that new dragnet location surveillance powers would significantly help to contain COVID-19. It is the government’s job to show the public why this would work.

activistpost--2020-03-22--“Travel Papers” and the Pandemic Patriot Act 2.0

Did you ever think we ’ d reach the point in the United States where you had to have papers to freely travel from one place to another ?
It appears we ’ re at the point .
The MTA issued “ travel papers ” to their workers On March 17th , a few days before New York issued a shelter in place order , the Metropolitan Transportation Authority issued “ travel papers ” to their employees to prepare for a potential coronavirus curfew .
The NY Daily News reports : If non-emergency travel is restricted , workers can show @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ re stopped on the way to work .
“ This letter along with current New York CIty Transit identification identifies this individual as an essential employee who is required to travel during the curfew imposed due to the Coronavirus emergency , ” states the letter , which is signed by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority ’ s Police Department ’ s acting chief Joseph McGrann .
“ Please give this individual due consideration during this crisis.
” MTA spokeswoman Abbey Collins said the letter was distributed on Monday to a “ limited number @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Jersey ” because the state ’ s Gov .
Murphy suggested imposing a statewide curfew between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m. ( source ) Clearly , the wheels have been in motion for several days .
And it ’ s not just the MTA .
For everyone who thought the article about the Lockdown of America was a “ hysterical overstatement ” and that they could still do whatever they wanted because it wasn ’ t really being enforced , what are you thinking now that “ travel papers ” are being handed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like the lockdowns I wrote of yesterday were just the first incremental step toward a society that nobody hopes to see .
Yesterday , readers sent me photos of “ travel papers ” provided to them by employers so they could get to and from work .
These are employees who work in industries like healthcare , pharmacies , and food service , as well as those who work in the production , transport , and sales of essential supplies .
One reader wrote , “ We were told to show these if @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or from work and that if the authorities gave us any trouble , to not argue and just go back home.
” Here are some of the papers that people sent .
Identifying information has been redacted .
Most people were given their papers on Friday or Saturday and told they ’ d need them to get to and from work starting the week ahead .
I wonder who ’ s going to be checking your “ travel papers.
” Will it be the local PD ?
The National Guard ?
The military @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those TSA agents who are currently out of work but already accustomed to molesting innocent travelers .
What does this mean for those told they ’ d be able to go to the store ?
We ’ ve been repeatedly told during task force press conferences that nobody needs to worry about buying extra supplies because the stores will remain open .
We were chastised about stocking up and “ hoarding ” supplies .
But if you need travel papers just to get to work , how will a person get to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ some groceries ?
Will these papers only be required during certain hours ?
It ’ s easy to prove you just went to the store when you have a bag of groceries in hand , but how do you prove you are going to the store ?
Will they just begin distributing the food to us as opposed to allowing people to shop for their own food ?
A little clarity and less subterfuge would go a lot further toward preventing concern that we ’ re about to go full Wuhan here in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have supplies already , I would head to the store today and get enough for a couple of extra weeks at the very least .
Here are some ideas for finding supplies amidst the picked-over inventory that remains .
So , what happens if you get caught without your papers ?
I ’ m glad you asked .
It seems like the DoJ is itching to suspend the Constitution .
At this point , the “ Department of Justice ” sounds like one of those other phrases the government uses to mean the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Act ” which is as far from patriotic as it gets .
And speaking of the Patriot Act , the government is now introducing what I ’ d like to dub the Pandemic Patriot Act 2.0 .
The DoJ has secretly asked Congress to draft legislation allowing them to indefinitely detain people without due process during the coronavirus pandemic .
Because who doesn ’ t want to add a little spice to our economic crisis with the added threat of indefinite detention ?
Documents reviewed by POLITICO detail the department ’ s requests @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , including the statute of limitations , asylum and the way court hearings are conducted .
POLITICO also reviewed and previously reported on documents seeking the authority to extend deadlines on merger reviews and prosecutions… …In one of the documents , the department proposed that Congress grant the attorney general power to ask the chief judge of any district court to pause court proceedings “ whenever the district court is fully or partially closed by virtue of any natural disaster , civil disobedience , or other emergency situation.
” The proposal would also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pause court proceedings during emergencies .
It would apply to “ any statutes or rules of procedure otherwise affecting pre-arrest , post-arrest , pre-trial , trial , and post-trial procedures in criminal and juvenile proceedings and all civil process and proceedings , ” according to draft legislative language the department shared with Congress .
In making the case for the change , the DOJ document wrote that individual judges can currently pause proceedings during emergencies , but that their proposal would make sure all judges in any particular district could handle emergencies “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) What the heck are “ pre-arrest ” procedures , anyway ?
Is that the part where government investigators go and set someone up to commit a crime like all those “ bombing plots ” the FBI keeps saving us from ?
I wouldn ’ t be surprised to see another 300-page legislation like the original Patriot Act that was rolled out just weeks after 9/11 , giving us the TSA , indefinite detention , and all sorts of other dystopian nonsense .
Never let a serious crisis go to waste .
In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the former mayor of Chicago , “ You never let a serious crisis go to waste .
And what I mean by that it ’ s an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.
” It looks like the government is taking those words to heart with travel papers and new draconian laws .
Since I wrote the article about America locking down yesterday , more states have joined in .
Now New York , California , Illinois , Connecticut , and New Jersey are all under restriction .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ these lockdowns being rolled out incrementally , starting out gently ( sure you can walk your dog ! )
and then moving on to the point where you can ’ t leave your house without “ travel papers ?
” So far , 2020 has brought us an out-of-control deadly pandemic , an economic collapse , statewide lockdowns , and now travel papers and a potential new law to eradicate the Fifth Amendment .
I hesitate to ask what ’ s next .

Did you ever think we’d reach the point in the United States where you had to have papers to freely travel from one place to another? It appears we’re at the point.
The MTA issued “travel papers” to their workers
On March 17th, a few days before New York issued a shelter in place order, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority issued “travel papers” to their employees to prepare for a potential coronavirus curfew. The NY Daily News reports:
If non-emergency travel is restricted, workers can show law enforcement officials the letter if they’re stopped on the way to work. “This letter along with current New York CIty Transit identification identifies this individual as an essential employee who is required to travel during the curfew imposed due to the Coronavirus emergency,” states the letter, which is signed by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s Police Department’s acting chief Joseph McGrann. “Please give this individual due consideration during this crisis.” MTA spokeswoman Abbey Collins said the letter was distributed on Monday to a “limited number of NYCT bus employees living in New Jersey” because the state’s Gov. Murphy suggested imposing a statewide curfew between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m. (source)
Clearly, the wheels have been in motion for several days. And it’s not just the MTA.
Your papers, please.
For everyone who thought the article about the Lockdown of America was a “hysterical overstatement” and that they could still do whatever they wanted because it wasn’t really being enforced, what are you thinking now that “travel papers” are being handed out? To me, this sounds like the lockdowns I wrote of yesterday were just the first incremental step toward a society that nobody hopes to see.
Yesterday, readers sent me photos of “travel papers” provided to them by employers so they could get to and from work. These are employees who work in industries like healthcare, pharmacies, and food service, as well as those who work in the production, transport, and sales of essential supplies.
One reader wrote, “We were told to show these if we got stopped on the way to or from work and that if the authorities gave us any trouble, to not argue and just go back home.”
Here are some of the papers that people sent. Identifying information has been redacted.
Papers that people sent were from Pennsylvania, New York, Arizona, Michigan, North Carolina, Kansas, New Jersey, West Virginia, Virginia, Oregon, Florida, Louisiana, and Ohio. Industries mentioned in the papers were trucking, grocery stores, medical clinics, hospitals, nursing homes, city transit workers, railroads, food production plants, pharmacies, gas stations, stores like Target and Walmart, and automotive repair facilities.
Most people were given their papers on Friday or Saturday and told they’d need them to get to and from work starting the week ahead.
I wonder who’s going to be checking your “travel papers.” Will it be the local PD? The National Guard? The military? Maybe it’ll be all those TSA agents who are currently out of work but already accustomed to molesting innocent travelers.
What does this mean for those told they’d be able to go to the store?
We’ve been repeatedly told during task force press conferences that nobody needs to worry about buying extra supplies because the stores will remain open. We were chastised about stocking up and “hoarding” supplies. But if you need travel papers just to get to work, how will a person get to the store when they need to pick up some groceries? Will these papers only be required during certain hours?
It’s easy to prove you just went to the store when you have a bag of groceries in hand, but how do you prove you are going to the store? Will they just begin distributing the food to us as opposed to allowing people to shop for their own food?
A little clarity and less subterfuge would go a lot further toward preventing concern that we’re about to go full Wuhan here in America.
If I didn’t have supplies already, I would head to the store today and get enough for a couple of extra weeks at the very least. Here are some ideas for finding supplies amidst the picked-over inventory that remains.
So, what happens if you get caught without your papers? I’m glad you asked.
It seems like the DoJ is itching to suspend the Constitution.
At this point, the “Department of Justice” sounds like one of those other phrases the government uses to mean the complete opposite. Like the “Patriot Act” which is as far from patriotic as it gets.
And speaking of the Patriot Act, the government is now introducing what I’d like to dub the Pandemic Patriot Act 2.0.
The DoJ has secretly asked Congress to draft legislation allowing them to indefinitely detain people without due process during the coronavirus pandemic. Because who doesn’t want to add a little spice to our economic crisis with the added threat of indefinite detention?
Documents reviewed by POLITICO detail the department’s requests to lawmakers on a host of topics, including the statute of limitations, asylum and the way court hearings are conducted. POLITICO also reviewed and previously reported on documents seeking the authority to extend deadlines on merger reviews and prosecutions… …In one of the documents, the department proposed that Congress grant the attorney general power to ask the chief judge of any district court to pause court proceedings “whenever the district court is fully or partially closed by virtue of any natural disaster, civil disobedience, or other emergency situation.” The proposal would also grant those top judges broad authority to pause court proceedings during emergencies. It would apply to “any statutes or rules of procedure otherwise affecting pre-arrest, post-arrest, pre-trial, trial, and post-trial procedures in criminal and juvenile proceedings and all civil process and proceedings,” according to draft legislative language the department shared with Congress. In making the case for the change, the DOJ document wrote that individual judges can currently pause proceedings during emergencies, but that their proposal would make sure all judges in any particular district could handle emergencies “in a consistent manner.” (source)
What the heck are “pre-arrest” procedures, anyway? Is that the part where government investigators go and set someone up to commit a crime like all those “bombing plots” the FBI keeps saving us from?
I wouldn’t be surprised to see another 300-page legislation like the original Patriot Act that was rolled out just weeks after 9/11, giving us the TSA, indefinite detention, and all sorts of other dystopian nonsense.
Never let a serious crisis go to waste.
In the infamous words of Rahm Emmanuel, the former mayor of Chicago, “You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it’s an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.”
It looks like the government is taking those words to heart with travel papers and new draconian laws.
Since I wrote the article about America locking down yesterday, more states have joined in. Now New York, California, Illinois, Connecticut, and New Jersey are all under restriction.
Is your state coming soon? Are these lockdowns being rolled out incrementally, starting out gently (sure you can walk your dog!) and then moving on to the point where you can’t leave your house without “travel papers?”
So far, 2020 has brought us an out-of-control deadly pandemic, an economic collapse, statewide lockdowns, and now travel papers and a potential new law to eradicate the Fifth Amendment.
I hesitate to ask what’s next.

THIS Is What World War III Looks Like

Here ’ s a question for you : How do you know when you ’ re at war ?
When there are troops on the streets ?
When mass panic hits ?
When there ’ s martial law and the public is told to batten down the hatches for a months or years-long siege ?
When world “ leaders ” tell their populations that the enemy is to blame for all the carnage ?
If these are the criteria , then that means we ’ re at war right now .
Martial law and the public being told to batten @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
World leaders telling their populations that the enemy is to blame for all the carnage ?
Check and check .
Yes , by all of those metrics , we ’ re at war .
But no one is calling it war .
Why not ?
Because , in the minds of the public , there really is only one metric for judging our war status : whether troops are in the battlefield shooting at each other .
Surely that ’ s war , right ?
But then , why is Merkel invoking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ explain the current crisis to the German people ?
Why are we being told that the times we are living through are worse than war ?
Why is misleader after misleader , from Trump to Trudeau to seemingly everyone else , invoking old war time emergency measures and preparing for full-scale martial law ?
Still not enough to convince you that the world is now at war ?
Well then why did Donald Trump declare war on coronavirus and anoint himself a “ war-time president “ ?
Why did Macron look steely-eyed into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ en guerre “ ?
Why are Boris Johnson , Moon Jae-in , and seemingly every other so-called “ leader ” in the world piling on in their declarations of war ?
The truth is that the world is at war now .
And that war is World War III .
The difference is that no one ( as yet ) understands the nature of this war , who its combatants are , and what the objective of those waging it really is .
I know you ’ re incredulous , so allow me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is war .
But who ’ s fighting who , and what ’ s at stake ?

Putting it mildly – it didn’t work out, which led to General Spalding being interviewed by The New Yorker for an article titled, “The Terrifying Potential of 5G.” The article referenced concerns about health risks from 5G exposure (see 1, 2, 3). However, it primarily focused on grave cybersecurity risks and how increased surveillance from the technology could drastically affect the American way-of-life:
A system built on millions of cell relays, antennas, and sensors also offers previously unthinkable surveillance potential. Telecom companies already sell location data to marketers, and law enforcement has used similar data to track protesters. 5G will catalogue exactly where someone has come from, where they are going, and what they are doing. Paired with facial recognition and artificial intelligence, the data streams and location capabilities of 5G will make anonymity a historical artifact. In China, which has installed three hundred and fifty thousand 5G relays—about ten times more than the United States—enhanced geolocation, coupled with an expansive network of surveillance cameras, each equipped with facial-recognition technology, has enabled authorities to track and subordinate the country’s eleven million Uighur Muslims. According to the Times, “the practice makes China a pioneer in applying next-generation technology to watch its people, potentially ushering in a new era of automated racism.”
Automated racism, folks.
General Spalding is one of many security experts who have warned about cybersecurity risks from 5G (see 1, 2). He has also written a book, Stealth War, which provides more unsettling details and warnings about how American freedoms are also at risk from 5G and Internet of Things (IoT) technology. Thanks to Patrick Bet-David for providing a forum for him to speak.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is supposed to protect the public by regulating the telecom industry. They have been a “captured agency” since long before the Trump Administration. However, the global “Race to 5G” has made them much more ruthless. They are even using the coronavirus as an excuse to speed up deployment which also includes launching satellites to blast it at us from space.
American and worldwide opposition to 5G has been ongoing. Last December doctors, engineers, scientists, and public advocates asked President Trump for a moratorium. Cities and countries have taken action including banning it and issuing moratoriums (see 1, 2, 3). Highly regarded organizations (including the U.S. Navy) have also issued warnings and opposition for additional safety issues (see 1, 2, 3). A growing number of Congress members are also expressing deep concerns.
