SILVANA

Our freedom is being taken away one great big hand full at a time by greedy profiteering government fat cats. Even the internet the last bastion of anonymity is being monitored, scanned and recording. Well I say the internet should be free. We are citizens of the internet, transcending orders nationality and culture. I say no one government has the power to control what was dreamt, designed and built for everyone. Silvana is a group built for preserving our god given right to freedom, privacy and keeping the internet government free.

       I'm sorry dude, but all this hacker, codes and encryption stuff just isn't something to worried about. If the hackers, thieves or even the government want to know anything about you, they already got it on file. Hell they know where you live, where you work, how many times a day you take a shit and what time you go to sleep. 

       All anyone has to do is run your social security number and they can pin point you. So encrypting anything isn't doing much other then keeping an honest man honest. If someone wants to find something out about you, they can find it. 

       Even the phone companies know everything about you. So encryption is nothing more then really a waste of time, unless you are trying to pull illegal shit that you should be caught for. 

       And if thinking that the government, other hackers and thieves haven't already seen these videos on YouTube then you're fooling yourself. They've probably already seen them and have people already cracking the encryption programs. Plus two, what most people haven't figured out yet is that most of the really good hackers have been hired by the government and these people have sold out because of the almighty dollar. 

       So even encrypting your phone is worthless. Because the information you provided to get the phone has already been placed on file in the phone company and the government has already received it. And lord forbid you have GPS on your phone.

       All this hype for encryption on computers and cell phones now is worthless. The government already knows.

         We've all have been brainwashed and have been running scared for years. Big brother is always looking at this and that. The best way to keep them off your back, don't give them the bullshit they need.

         If you don't want people to know or to find out what's going on, the easiest way is not to post it, message it, text it or give them any way to have a hard copy of whatever it is you don't want anyone to know. Think about this.

         How hard was it for big brother to find people who committed crimes or acts against humanity from the 1500's to about the mid 1980's? Pretty damn hard, because there was no technology like we have today. 

         We've become so dependent on our technology that we're willing to give up our privacy to make our lives (So called) better. 

         We choose to post shit about ourselves on facebook, we choose to use these fancy cellphones, we choose to put vital and private information on our phones and other types of media based products that are out there.

         I see it all the time, and I know you have too. People putting up pics of there Overseas vacations, people messaging about how they have Dr.'s appointments and those higher (so-called) society people can't live without their cellphones, because it tells them when to wash their asses.

         Yes I do think private shit should remain private, between those you trust. But when you begin to use social media like cellphones, you can't really bitch about security because you chose to make it public.

         By putting your life in the open for anyone to see was a chose that you, I and everyone else has made. We don't even think about where we go or what we sign up for on the net. Look at what it takes to register with any website now. Back when I was new to the net, all you had to have was a username and a password. That was it. Now you have to supply the sites today with, city and state you live. Your Name, address, phone number, date of birth, male or female and whatever else a site asks.

         But yet we scream about security and privacy. (LOL) I just think the old idea of encryption is silly. We put ourselves out there in the open in the name of convenience, but when the government says they are listening and watching, we scream for more security and our rights to privacy. But yet do any of us really think about what we put over the net or what we keep on our cellphones and our computers? 

         The answer is NO. So when it comes down to it, if a person wants more security and privacy, stop making it a matter of public record. Keep it yourself or tell those you trust, (who will keep it private), and don't make it a matter of public records. 

         (LOL) This kind of reminds of the same shit pulled back in the day, when cops went through trash cans. People hollard it was an invasion of privacy. But how can trash be private if it's sitting in the open for the whole world to see...God, the hype that brought up...(LOL)
