Telecoms Helped Iran Government Censor Internet
- Text size
June 27, 2009
As thousands in Iran turn to the web to make their voices heard around the world, a new report finds telecoms in Europe have helped the Iranian government develop one of the worlds most sophisticated mechanisms to censor the internet. Its called deep packet inspection, and its also being used here at home. We speak with Josh Silver, executive director of Free Press.
The way deep packet inspection works is that you have sophisticated equipment that literally watches the entire internet, and it watches for every piece of data, voice, video that goes through and pulls out key words, it pulls out key—both written and spoken, and looking for things like rebel or grenade or what have you. And then it will trigger that, and that will go to the NSA version, in this case, in the country of Iran.companies like Cisco out in California, that have the ability to do this. Now, were not saying that AT&T, Verizon and Comcast are like the Iranian government, but we do see a problem where even our own president, with his progressive internet policy agenda, last year flipped on this issue and actually supported a Bush administration law that granted immunity to the largest phone and cable companies for turning over citizens private records to the government, which was illegal at the time.
- A d v e r t i s e m e n t
The warrantless wiretapping program was widely considered illegal. After abruptly switching his position in midcampaign, then-Sen. Barack Obama voted along with most in Congress to grant telecom companies like AT&T and Verizon retroactive immunity from prosecution. The New York Times recently reported that the NSA maintains a database called Pinwale, with millions of intercepted e-mail, including some from former President Bill Clinton.
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder was recently asked by Sen. Russ Feingold if he felt that the original warrantless wiretap program was illegal:
Feingold: [I]s there any doubt in your mind that the warrantless wiretapping program was illegal?
Dissenters in Iran and Cha persist despite repression that is enabled in part by equipment from U.S. and European companies. In the U.S., the Obama administration is following a dangerous path with Bush-era spy programs that should be suspended and prosecuted, not extended and defended.

The British Empire, hiding behind their American puppets, have been fomenting all the Iranian chaos. Business as usual!

what stops them stealing your business ideas? if they know everything you say and send, they can easily see if a business idea you have is feasible, and with all their money, power and ability to avoid the ‘red tape’, they can steal your idea, and register it last year already, before you have even finished talking about the idea with your friend.

What REALLY gets my goat, is the fact that they (Gov.) have used the peoples money, to develop very high technology that could help mankind, and yet, keep it all from us.
We paid for the development, salaries, office and lab spaces…Everything.
And its all kept from us.
Complete Thievery !!!

Yep..
I bet the NSA uses echelon to sive communications for keywords and phrase of interest to them, too. Like:
“Here’s what the other party doesn’t know about this deal”
and
“Our company asked for BIG dollars, but we’ll gladly accept LESS dollars to get the contract”
And
“We’re about to win the bid. Let’s hope those fucking shifty Yanks don’t beat us to the winning line again”
Oh. And they may even sive for words like “bomb” and “Death to Obama”.

Now their watching everything I say, and their watching everything I do
and then I’ll be dead with a bullet in my head saying it was suicide when I don’t have a gun.
I know lets fight for rights in IRAN half way around the world as our own rights fade into the misty reaches of times past.
I know lets forget about the election in 2000 that was decided by a Supreme Court that has no athority for such a decision, or the election in 2004 with its voting machines that have no paper record. Or what about 2008, a president w/out a birth certificate, who lied to the american people to give the illusion that a vote can make a difference, and America votes for change, but gets seemless continuity from the last administration on every important matter, a government run by the same old crony whasington insider mafia.
This world is such a tangle mess of lies and underhanded actions that one must learn to look with eyes of spirit inward toward the heart to see what is real (the true Israel). All things come from the realm of Spirit and to the realm of Spirit all things shall return, for no man can stop the wheels of time. The realm of Spirit has a permanent recording of everything that has ever happened, every action, every thought, every word, and every deed. This is called the Akashic Record among the Sadus of India, this is called the Book of God’s Remembrance among the Hebrew, and it is known as the Chronicles of Astinus among the Kendermore.
People think that what they think in their mind, or whisper among themselves behind closed doors will not be heard by anyone and that they can get away with anything as long as they don’t get caught. No one gets away with anything; all things are known. And so it is that our Father God holds in his right hand the Book of God’s Rembrance, and all who now live shall stand before the Allmighty King, and he shall open the book to everyone’s page, and everyone shall be judged by how they forced the ethers to vibrate.
Rest assured, you people of Faith, you who fight evil, you who are honest, you who have respect, and you who have compassion, for thine is the Kingdom evermore.

something i got from the book “The Nostradamous code:World War III 2009-2012″
but not sure if its true or not.
The Antichrist will take over Iran by using a human decoy to trick the Iranian Ayatollah in power. This will involve the “yes men” and puppets of the Ayatollah’s court. The Antichrist will first drive away internal supporters of the Ayatollah by starting a civil war. Then he will put forth a man as a leader, a man for Iranians loyal to the Ayatollah to concentrate their hate on. The man will be assassinated while Iran is being taken over, and his opponents will think they have foiled the overthrow of power by assassinating him. But they will find out later he was merely a decoy and that they played into the plans of the Antichrist.
The Antichrist will initially obtain power in his own sphere, Asia, and the Middle East. As he grows out of this arena, and into Europe, the next step will be into the Mediterranean, his area of strength. Because of his Middle Eastern heritage he will have already united North Africans, who are sympathetic to his cultural background, with his Asian and Middle Eastern conglomerate

How about this for healine: Telecoms helped the US government to censor all your comunications, ignore the costitution and install a fake law: the patriot act.

Peace.

To render such tactics useless, we should all add a tagline to every email that contains all the terms the NSA is looking for: like bomb, patriot, grenade, resistance, primers, etc. that would flag the email as worth study. The reason why, is best taught by an old fable I learned:
A good ol’ Englishman once caught a leprechaun, who begged to be let go. The Englishman wisely told him, “only if you tell me where you have your pot of gold.”
Reluctantly, the leprechaun agreed, and led the man to a tree in a forest, pointed to the ground, and said, “it’s buried here.”
The Englishman then tied a piece of rope around the tree, and extracted a further promise from the leprechaun: do not remove this rope from this tree. After agreeing, the leprechaun was set free. The Englishman then rushed home to get a pick and shovel.
Upon his return to the tree in the woods, he found every tree had a rope tied around it.

It is claimed that Nokia-Seimens alone developed and constructed the Iranian
networking espionage operations center.
