The Sex Collectors “Stitch Ups” – How the world is run on shame by Greg Hallet
repost of who’s reading your email September 29th 2008
Or how the state listens in on your computer.
This is a topic of an interest of mine and I have wanted to put up a post on it for some time. Not many people realise that the State can “tap” your computer and record all your going’s on. A brief explanation of how the Internet works and why it is a unsecure medium is required.
As you can gather, the Internet is a series of interconnected networks (this is done by using standard communication protocols). The Internet works by breaking down files into packets which contain both the sender and recipients Internet Protocol (I.P) addresses. These packets are then moved around by specialised computers called Routers which determine the most appropriate route. Your data passes through a number of third party routers, all of which have the potenial to read your data. A computer which is set up to intercept data is know as a packet sniffer. These can be programmed to intercept traffic from certain users etc..
A Packet sniffer located at your ISP would be able to monitor all of your online activities such as
The most famous Packet Sniffer is one developed by the F.B.I called Carnivore and the later version called Omnivore. This system is configured with the suspect’s IP address, it intercepts and copies all data coming from and to the suspect’s computer.
Interesting sources of information are
Just listened to the Niall Boylan show on Classix hits Wednesday 23 August 23. The topic being discussed was young people living with their parents unable to afford rent or mortgages. ( Average salary in Ireland is €45,000. Average price of a 3 bedroomed house is €305,000, in Dublin average house price is €430,000. Borrowing limits are 4 times salary and a little more.)
What can people do ?
For starters they can pressurize the Government to provide more social and affordable housing, the government is dragging its feet on the issue by building nowhere near enough houses.( Most of the government Td’s are landlords and have a invested interest in the status quo).
A tax on vacant homes / land with planning permission (stop hoarding )/ derelict houses and properties.
Encourage old people to rent out their houses when they are living in nursing homes.
More balanced regional development, much of rural Ireland is in the doldrums, encourage more people/ business’s to set up in rural towns and villages.
Better Roads and railways, better public transport.
Young people to get organized. Young people get the “shiity ” end of the stick precisely because they are not organized, they don’t vote or vote for parties like fine gael or fianna fail. Young people get shafted on everything like car insurance, student fees, accommodation, wage rates, healthcare and jobs. Old people who vote get free medical cards, free phone, electric discounts, bus passes, tv licence and so on.
vote out the present government, they are a government of the rich and will not alleviate the problems of ordinary people.
Was in hospital for two weeks decently. The health has not been good of late. But I am over that now. So I shall resume blogging again. They can’t shut me up !
