Authorities Worldwide Repurpose COVID-19 Surveillance Tech for Law Enforcement, Spying
In the least surprising development in history, via Associated Press:
In the pandemic’s bewildering early days, millions worldwide believed government officials who said they needed confidential data for new tech tools that could help stop coronavirus’ spread. In return, governments got a firehose of individuals’ private health details, photographs that captured their facial measurements and their home addresses.
This is the same essential story as the last permanent emergency that gripped the West, the War on Terror — a supposed existential threat emerges on the heels of a catastrophic event (9/11). The state then takes advantage of the populace’s fear and panic to draft sweeping new powers for itself. Those powers inevitably are later found to have been used for opaque (and often illegal) purposes beyond the original scope of authority.
Rinse and repeat with climate change, cyber warfare, and whatever other boogeymen, real or imagined, the national security state conjures next.

The U.S. Government Funded Chinese Military Research:
This story isn’t over - and neither is the story of the COVID cover-up
Last week, a bombshell intelligence report on the origins of COVID-19 was released by House Republicans with the explosive discovery that the United States government funded genetic manipulation of coronaviruses, not only at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, but at a Chinese Military research facility.
While the U.S. routinely, and rightly, lectures China on being more transparent and cooperating more on the COVID investigation, we don’t expect much. Admitting mistakes or failure under a totalitarian regime often has terminal consequences.
But we do expect much more in the land of the free and the home of the brave. We expect that the intelligence community works for the democratic republic. Much ballyhoo has been broadcast about “threats to our democracy,” but having an intelligence community that refuses requests from Congress makes January 6th look like a Piker’s ball.
Despite repeated attempts, the U.S. Intelligence community refuses to reveal the names of scientific experts they employed to look at the Chinese gain of function experiments. Why is this important? Well, one so-called scientific expert is Peter Daszak, who also is bag man for carrying NIH cash to Wuhan. Daszak is the very definition of conflict of interest. If he’s one of the experts, you can understand why the CIA might be doing a little CYA.
It never ceases to amaze me that real news, news concerning the deaths of over 6 million COVID victims is ignored and sloughed over while we are treated to ad nauseum reports of the “day democracy died.” --->READ MORE HERE
