NSA is undoubtedly monitoring all electronic communication within the United States, if not the entire world. Given that what sort of weird paranormal things do you think they have records for? If the paranormal exists, they either have or have not observed it. If they have, then they have "X-files" on the paranormal.
On a side note, if there is no paranormal they have files on everyone and their personal files. What do you think they think of the average person? Do they think they're good, or would knowledge on the activities of everyone on the planet cause them to lose their faith in humanity?
honestly i just feel really bad for the guy that has to read my internet history, or texts.
They collect data to analyze it using algorithms to dectect phrases and patterns that would signify suspicious activity. Literally no one will ever see your texts, emails or hear your phone calls, there's just too many for humans to analyze, so a computer does it. And if nothing is found, they get deleted. There's just too much data to leave stored on a hardrive, most people are paranoid of the NSA when in reality it's just too daunting to actually look at everyone's communications and store them.
Being a former military Intel analyst, I can attest to you that the NSA and even the CIA aren't as scary as you may think.

Forever alone :(
Sometimes when I am alone, I talk to them. Remind them that they are just like us. Your government does not care about you. You are cattle too.
I'm relatively sure that there are organizations that are developing systems that can do mass analysis of the world's data in order to have oversight of everything and anything that may be transferred over radio waves in a meaningful way. It is obvious that interactions between civilians are likely not very relevant for such a goal, but traffic analysis, phone messages, and other forms of electronic communication are analyzed, which in turn places suspicious individuals in the spotlight. It is necessary to watch everyone in order to find those who are looking to do harm to the structure of the society the founders have worked so hard to immortalize.
It is ideal for any organization of people to be able to know what is going on wherever they may please. That pseudo-omnipotence is something that cannot be overlooked by those who want the world to themselves. Most people will oppose it because they cannot understand that the world will eventually only be comprised of a small, tightly knit societal structure where no evil can hide. People will be chipped, and probably eventually completely or partially cybernetic. I'm leaning towards the biological engineering of humans rather than the movement of trans-humanism through integration of technology.
Technology is far more finite in terms of biological advancement as opposed to genetic engineering. Why build bionic arms when we can genetically engineer denser muscles fibers? Enough of my ranting. You are all living in a time of dwindling freedom. Complaining will not change anything and you surely cannot oppose organizations of people that are so well funded and so widely interconnected that they can destroy and erect entire nations. Just sit down and stay ignorant. It is better for you.
>>17749749
>except when you fund the people who are so well funded, or provide the means and knowledge with which they use on a daily basis
>those who construct the means to establish the "societal structure which no evil can hide" know exactly where to hide, and most likely are not wholly altruistic to not do so
>stop trying to change things and bring forth the wonderful future I want to live in- deprive me of it, stay ignorant, and sit idly. It's better for all of us!
You realize... that you're people too, right? That everyone is people? That there are more people that "me" (You) and "them"?
Please? I don't care what your trans-humanist bent is. Technology is far more infinite than biological advancement is, if not on equal terms. It's less profitable, in the long term, to mess with programming sequences you haven't fully explored, as opposed to constructing a cheap solution that can utilize several workarounds to achieve the exactly similar purpose. How will you feed the superdense tissues without modifying the rest of your body to account for the inevitable balancing act the entire system will have to perform... just for a small segment of networked tissues? Would you risk permanent damage to the body, that which is already hard to repair as it is programmed to die, or prevent damage with a dummy replacement?
To top it off, you could recycle a prosthetic. You can't exactly as of yet recycle a full human arm, cadaver or otherwise. It isn't even yet profitable to grow any limb whatsoever. Organs and individual cell cultures, perhaps.
>>17747242
Digital evidence can never be paranormal. Think if God wanted to hide himself from organized mass analysis; he would have to manipulate statistics to keep intelligence agencies and corporations in the dark. I'd expect the military or the old CIA to have paranormal records in storage, but not the NSA.

>>17750071
I'm aware of that part.
Another anon mentioned it, but I'll say it again- The NSA is not omnipresent.
One must look at it all from logistical terms-
The United States has 318.9 million inhabitants. The world has nearly 8 billion. There is no way the NSA could have a detailed file on 8 billion, much least about 319 million people
>inb4 you government shill
Imagine the amount of money it would cost to run enough servers to keep these files running, and the amount of time it would take to organize these files so that they could find data on each individual with ease. Governments are like people- They are thrifty with their time and money- They aren't going to waste their wealth on tracking everybody and their personal histories when they could spend it on something "useful" such as Predator drones in the Middle East.
Ultimately, what they do is simply monitor the Internet for keywords that may possible indicate terrorist activity; this makes them appear to be omnipresent.
Fear is a potent weapon; by projecting the appearance of omnipresence, and the appearance of infallibility, it keeps the masses in line.
In short, however, you don't need to worry about them monitoring your every conversation, or keeping a file on you. A government is run by people- and people are inherently lazy bastards.

You're right. Biology is really just a sub-category of technology. Technology is infinitely modular as there are far more materials than can comprise machinery than that which can drive functioning biology.
Now that I look at it, technology may be a far better alternative to modified biology. At this point, we can create far more from non-organic tissue than we can from organic tissue.
But, biology may be a better alternative when we talk about creating larger organisms. If we were to create a biological system that can handle large limbs, a tremendous nervous system, etc, it would be far more suitable than creating large machinery in its place. After all, biological organisms grow as per their genetic makeup.
Think of the movie 'Pacific Rim'. If you haven't seen it, quickly look up a description. In the mean time, bionic supplements are far better as we have a greater understanding of non-organic materials. But, if we truly want to make augment ourselves in an absolute sense so that every generation will carry the same modifications, genetic engineering is a better solution.
We can create a self sustaining biological system that passively draws fuel from vastly abundant materials. Think drawing in nitrogen through our pores where our skin cells turn it into energy that the rest of our body can use. It would be far better to add this to a person's genetic makeup so they can pass it on to their children rather than create technology that does it for us. The cost difference for the entire species cannot be neglected.

Yea, no way they could just use a decentralized data system where each individual computer/smart phone keeps the records and data they desire for them; and access it whenever they desire.... instead of using the massive data centers that Google and other electronics/software companies are constructing nationwide.
Never mind, they probably do both.

Biology may be a better alternative when we talk about creating larger organisms... but why would you go through the trouble of creating a larger organism?
Larger organisms, by the by, require MORE energy. They tend to die faster because of several key functions that are necessary to even ordain... whatever it is you're putting forth.
Biological organisms grow per their genetic makeup, because they are programmed to do so. If you knew what the program was doing, to an exact science, you would still only be able to account for 70% or less of what would become of the entire system. Reason being, that the environment would be something that would need to control as well. Else, you will have a super-organism in a less-than-super environment; a hardy organism is better than a pedigree.
Think about it this way. Bionic supplements already exist. There is a market, and a field, for them already. They help us understand just how intricate the human body is, as well as help us understand how much more intricate we can make them in turn. Bioengineering has far more baggage, margins of error, and may not appear until bionic augmentation seems as commonplace as a digital camera, or a photocopier. You will have a working bionic heart before you crack the intricacies of synthesizing a human heart from cell cultures, prepped to be implanted without error or malfunction over the course of it's lifetime.
Germline editing is far worse.
I don't ever recall there being self-sustaining biological systems, either. Plants are not self-sustaining, or else they would not need sunlight, water, or nutrients after emerging from their seeds. Each and every animal you see is definitely not self-sustaining.
>nitrogen through our pores
YOU REALIZE THAT NITROGEN, LIKE THE OTHER INERT GASSES, HAS NO IMMEDIATELY DISCERNIBLE REASON FOR BEING IN OUR SKIN OR OUR BLOOD, RIGHT?
Why... for what purpose are you absorbing Nitrogen into your skin? It's not the same as the stuff in the soil.
>>17750891
>>17751801
Let me better elaborate on >for what purpose are you absorbing Nitrogen into your skin?
You understand how skin cells work, right? The majority of the outer layer of skin is not meant to live very long. This is why you -shed- skin cells on a daily basis. The inner layer, however, is meant to insulate you. While production of vitamin D occurs, it doesn't occur on the same level that plants synthesize sucrose.
These cells are not the same as your liver cells, either. Causing them to be the sole basis for energy production would kill the man, especially because your sole means of producing energy without calorie intake would mean not only an ongoing chemical process that is SKIN DEEP, and whose chemical process can be interrupted quite easily (very shallow and unprotected), but the fact that you are keeping nitrogen so close to your bloodstream would spell death, at best. Not to mention, homeostasis would have to take into account the fact that the largest organ in your body, the thing already doing several other things, is now also doing an additional thing that should very well tax the entire system, autonomous or otherwise. So many things would have to be taken into account... why?
Think about accidentally pricking yourself with a pin. Now all that concentrated Nitrogen Oxide that wasn't yet separated in the skin has leeched into your blood. In fact, adding to a person's genetic material without consideration would be an exceptional no-no if you're looking for 100% guarantee. Genes aren't foolproof- if you made this an autosomal dominant gene expression, it may very well show up in all offspring of at least one of the parents that have the gene expression. But mutations and permutations will always occur. You may end up with an exceptionally fatal gene over time. Think "The Bends", but on land. In your skin.

That's literally the best chance you have for predicting what a government will look like in the future. That's why Europe screwed up democracy after WW2, why Egypt didn't change at all after the Arab spring, and why Venezuela is once again going the way of the old South American tin-pot dictatorships.
This is the US we're talking about. If the gov't went crazy and started doing something like arresting people for offensive speech, it would only be possible if the majority of the country supported their action. This is why drastic shit like that only happens, say, during WW2 and with regards to Japs. There are also three branches of government, all filled with career Machiavellian's eager to make a name for themselves by "standing up for freedom" in D.C. or checking a rival branch when the Constitution lets them.
Guess what, most people don't give a rats ass about politics. You might read SJW threads on /pol/ and think we're one feminist congressman away from a left-wing dictatorship, but for most Americans, those SJW nuts are as crazy as stormfront people.

It's not just the government though. I worked as jury on a case and when evidence was presented to us, it included phone conversations between the one accused and several other suspects. Literally everything was recorded by the phone company and transferred to the police.

This is literally the only possible outcome of mass surveillance. There can't be another.

Look at some of these reports. They've redacted how often NSA analysts have improperly used/retained/accessed data on US citizens but you can see that it happens.
It also makes it clear that they have transcripts of phone calls and emails on "targets" who are sometimes US citizens and sometimes targeted accidentally. They claim to delete the information but it's troubling that they collect it at all and we can't really know they delete everything.
Plus, these reports are based on things that have been discovered/reported to the oversight board. How many improper activities are not reported or noticed?
There's no guarantee that US citizens' personal information is safe because they collect so much of it and analysts are human beings who can make mistakes/choose to break the law.
For example:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-switch/wp/2013/09/27/5-americans-who-used-nsa-facilities-to-spy-on-lovers
They have the capability to spy on whoever they want and have actual human beings read e-mails, see internet history and listen to phone calls when they choose to. That bothers me, even if it doesn't bother you. Maybe none of us are targets now but who knows.
And how do they confirm these targets if they aren't reading the actual computer-identified "suspicious" e-mails in the first place? An algorithm can't apply for authorization to target an individual, can they? I suspect that privacy of innocent Americans is being invaded on a regular basis, even if unintentional or unavoidable for "national security".
And by the way, it's not like that guy provided any sources or research so why are you acting like I should have?
>>17747242
the NSA knows literally everything. The problem is that they don't have nearly enough analysts to take the reams and reams of data and make it into any kind of usable information.
If anything, Google and Facebook probably know more about you, because they basically collect surveys through search results and private message keyword skimming instead of spying on all electronic traffic ever.

I was focusing on the abundance of nitrogen in the atmosphere rather than its purpose in the body in order to outline how beneficial it would be to tune an organism's anatomy to extract the most abundant elements from its environment in order to produce fuel.
I'm no chemist and no biologist so I definitely had no clue whether or not nitrogen would serve any purpose in what we currently understand of human biology. But, I do believe that it may one day be possible to create a biological organism that can use an environment's most abundant materials as sources of fuel. I am definitely not speaking towards what is possible for human anatomy. I like to think that the human anatomy is not all that is possible in terms of biological anatomy as a whole.
Perhaps, one day, we can create an organism that can literally eat shit and drink piss for sustenance. But, of course, we cannot do that.

Literally no one will ever see your texts, emails or hear your phone calls, there's just too many for humans to analyze, so a computer does it. And if nothing is found, they get deleted. There's just too much data to leave stored on a hardrive, most people are paranoid of the NSA when in reality it's just too daunting to actually look at everyone's communications and store them.
To add to this, it is my understanding that all information is logged using an anonymizing agent. Meaning that unless your information is flagged by the bots/algorithims as hostile/dangerous/noteworthy, your true name and location are protected by law.
While I'm not fully convinced that this is still the case, the NSA has used this method in the past, prior to the introduction of the Patriot Act.
I personally, have little to no concern over the activity of the NSA or CIA in regard to my day to day activities.

>In a statement on the release of new declassified figures, DNI Mike McConnell said there would be no additional disclosures of classified budget information beyond the overall spending figure because "such disclosures could harm national security". How the money is divided among the 16 intelligence agencies and what it is spent on is classified. It includes salaries for about 100,000 people, multibillion-dollar satellite programs, aircraft, weapons, electronic sensors, intelligence analysis, spies, computers, and software.

Programs like grep and sed, for starters
Let's joke around and see if we catch some attention
Terrorism, CIA NSA FBI Terrorists, Bomb, Dirty Bomb, Underground Bomb, 2000 dead in terrorist attack, date unknown, in atlantic ocean, US base destroyed, nuclear bomb goes off in china, china backed terrorists, french mossad agents plant bomb in US suburbs, 50 dead approximately, US documents leaked, pertaining to operation Jade Flash, left wing terrorist cell formed, anti people cell pro government cell.
Let's see if this sets of the NSA algorithim

Also, technically with the advent of neural networks, machines may be able to use multiple samples of one person's information to look for patterns. If a wrongthink pattern pops up, then it will flagged and added to a list. This flag list will then undoubtedly be much smaller than the entire population (which can be done by the sensitivity levels for the neural net's pattern-detection algorithms). Thus, the list would now be manageable by a large team of underlings. These underlings would then find the worst wrongthinkers and report those to their boss, etc. until it reaches the NSA bigwigs, which then they will make a decision to deal/not deal with the situation (and how).
