WPCNR NEWS & COMMENT. By John F. Bailey. February 9, 2015:
I just received a letter from a friend of ours who just moved to Florida. Her very concerned letter highlights the reasons why the internet is the greatest aid to criminals, tyrants, thieves and revolutionaries to come along since the machine gun.
The internet cannot be trusted. I receive more sophisticated and clever scams each day that ask you to download a file. No one should ever download a thing from someone even if you do know them unless of course you have requested it from them.
Just last week we heard that millions of persons have had their medical records accessed because their medical insurance provider has been hacked. Millions now are at risk for having their social security numbers, bank accounts, personal illnesses…(you name it) tapped and used for identify theft, bank account access.
This is a huge problem whose implications should be duly noted.
Companies are doing a lousy job of protecting our data. Big name companies are getting hacked every week it seems.
Now as my friend notes in this letter, comes a threat far greater — the Crypto-virus
As my friend writes:
“You may have read the Times article, but there is a virus – the crypto-virus -that is very dangerous. You can pick it up by going to a site you don’t recognize or, even worse, the perpetrators can hijack your address book and then you’re really in the soup. They grab your files and will destroy them unless you ransom them! The ransom is several hundred dollars IF you pay on time. If you’re late with the payment they increase it immediately; and if you don’t pay it, they destroy everything that was on your computer. This is not a joke. Because they only accept bitcoins, , there is no way to trace them as yet and so far the Law has not made much of an attempt to locate these thieves. Please do be careful.
Now this raises a question–how long before this crypto-virus becomes a tool of terrorism and absolutely disrupts worldwide financial dealings, wipes out assets? You will see a crash like you will not believe — assets up in smoke overnight.
Our government appears to not be making the slightest effort to go after these hackers because the government appears not to be going after the giant server companies that allow their subscribers to mount hacking operations and put up websites advocating genocide and mayhem.
There is no reason terrorist websites should even be on the internet, especially considering the sophistication of the websites.The sites are like magazines. Servers are hosting these anarchic terrorists.
Does our government or the other governments of the so-called “civilized world,” as well as the “civilized esteemed banks of the world,” who launder the money for servers who enable “the outlaws” and “rebels.”
These outlaws and rebels and criminals are little more than organizations of psychaopths who start these organizations and offer a haven to juvenile delinquents with ouzzis, bombs and blades, and amoral hackers who steal data, and create identities for criminals.
Does the civilized instituions really want to stop these threats to the innocent people of the world?
It doesn’t seem like it to me they want to stop it.
Where’s Chuck Schumer (“Senator Concerned”)when you need him There’s an issue for you, Senators and Congresspersons.
Do our government and the financial interests of the world enjoy the blood money and blood services and the profits drenched in blood they make from these Huns and Mongols of the 21st century?
Does the power establishment see these “threats” and “acts of terror” as reasons to perpetuate their governments, financial institutions and corporations, by convincing us — those afflicted by the mayhem — that we need government, business leadership and experts to protect us?
Do our “esteemed leaders” of business, government and technology condone these renegade operations of crime, terror and twisted philosophy?
They seem to because they do nothing to stop the money and the services “propaganda and funding” that have enabled these outlaw organizations to grow.
The Roman Empire fell because it kept buying off the hordes at its gates for centuries. The Romans legitimized them and traders profited from supplying Huns, Visigoths, and the tribes from the edges of the Roman Empire. Roman Legions even accepted mercenaries and eventually were unable to hold back the empire from being overrun in the west.
If the interests of greed are not held accountable for the money laundering, service providing and arms supplies that make the terrorists, the cyber criminals of today threats, and what have you able to ply their evil, (and they are evil) the anarchists and amoralites will grow. They are growing.
Cyber crime, identity theft, hacking is not fun and it really is not very clever.
Data storage on computer has to be seriously looked at and changed by companies that store it.
The major server organizations accepting money from the scurrilous websites that purvey the human traffikicing trade, the terrorist propaganda sites; social media propaganda “statements,” well those servers and communications giants have to be gone at hard.
It is not a matter of freedom of speech.
There is no “Freedom of Service” guarantee.
Those who would abet and profit from the forces of evil (like the pharissees of old) aiding and condoning acts of theft, identity theft, fraud, and mass murder do not have the right to explain it and mask it as free speech and a “service.”
That is blood money.
The free world is being hoisted on its own pitard–freedom of speech– yes, but business and governments and financial institutions do not have a freedom of service when creates loss of life, exploits, and disintegrates societies.
Innocence of knowledge is no excuse.
Too often the arms dealers and evil-enablers of the world have made multi-fortunes of Midas proportions promoting, yes promoting revolutions, frauds, and terrorism and not held accountable.
But here in America, Great Britain,France, Germany, China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, the players of the world, they never turn down the opportunity to make blood money if the profit is right.
They do not care if the end result is wrongdoing of the highest most horrifying level.
They have to wash their hands a lot.
Like Pontius Pilate.
