"Big Brother presses forward"
"The FBI will shortly announce the awarding of a $1 billion, 10-year contract to create a database of biometric information on all U.S. citizens. The FBI calls this, “Next Generation Identification.”
(I will update this post when I learn who the winner is. The contract will probably go to an Israeli company.)
The FBI already has 55 million sets of fingerprints on file, and is now collecting palm prints, scars, tattoos, facial shapes, iris eye patterns, the way people walk, and so on.
(Your biometic information is entered into the database if you are arrested by any agency for any reason, such as participating in a public protest against war or Israeli atrocities. You might be released with a misdemeanor charge, but you will be tracked from then on, and perhaps put on the "no-fly" list as punishment. At large anti-war rallies, private contractors take infrared scans of every vehicle license plate at the event. This information is also entered into the database. More on this below.)
Thomas Bush is assistant director of the FBI's Criminal Justice Information Services Division. He is in charge of a facility in Clarksburg, West Virginia where the FBI houses its current fingerprint database. "Whatever biometric comes down the road, we need to be able to plug that in and play."
The FBI's exploding biometric data is stored on computers 30-feet underground in the Clarksburg facility.
Nearby, at West Virginia University's Center for Identification Technology Research, researchers are testing new tracking technologies for the FBI.
"The best increase in accuracy will come from fusing different biometrics together," said Bojan Cukic, the co-director of the university center.
(All of this will cause more mistakes, more false arrests, and an increased “no-fly” list that prevents Americans from traveling.
It will also make it harder for Americans to find a job. The FBI plans a so-called "rap-back" service, in which employers can check a special web site to see if a prospective employee has ever had any kind of contact with law enforcement agencies, such as participation at an anti-war event.
The ADL is tied into this database. Any American who protests Jewish atrocities is labeled an "undesirable." Employers who check the database will find YOUR name as an "undesirable." You will not be hired.)
Half of FBI queries involve background checks of people that apply to sensitive jobs in government, or jobs working with vulnerable people such as children and the elderly.
(The designation of “sensitive job” will eventually include all Americans -- even those who work in fast food joints.)
The FBI says the mass surveillance will protect America from terrorism, and protect citizens from identity theft.
A 2006 German study looked at facial recognition in a crowded train station, and found successful matches could be made 60 percent of the time during the day. However the success rate dropped to 10 percent at night, or in low-light conditions. Hence the new tracking systems will cause a dramatic increase in false arrests.
The current thrust is to start scanning taxpayers’ irises, but soon all kinds of methods will be employed. Some researchers are looking at the way people walk as a means of identification.

SEPARATE STORY
Governments all levels in the USA are rushing to put every citizen under continual surveillance. The goal is to crush political dissent, while extorting more and more money from citizens.
Here’s one example:
In several U.S. states, car owners must pay license plate fees, plus annual fees that are typically a few hundred dollars per vehicle. If people do not pay, the government tows their vehicles to an impound yard. Then people must pay the fees, plus penalties, plus a towing charge, plus impound fees that go up every day a car is impounded.
City governments locate people’s vehicles by using the BootFinder system, in which an operator drives by hundreds of cars parked on roads, plus Wal-Mart parking lots, in people’s private driveways, and so on. An infrared camera scans every license plate. If the BootFinder system detects a match, a tow truck is called.
Many people step out of their front doors to go to work in the morning, and find that their car has been snatched from their driveway during the night.
Cars are towed for parking tickets, for property taxes, and for an ever-expanding variety of other reasons. In some U.S. states, restaurant delivery companies must pay a “meals tax.” Businesses that do not pay have their vehicles towed.
The BootFinder system was first introduced in Arlington County Virginia to help police departments identify stolen cars, but quickly became the latest craze in government surveillance and tax extortion. Governments see dollar signs, and BootFinder has quickly demonstrated "function creep,” in which a technology intended for one purpose evolves into other abuses.
The BootFinder system was invented by G2 Tactics of Alexandria Virginia. Andy Bucholz, the company’s owner, is in talks that will link the BootFinder system to the National Crime Information Center database. Every American will have his care continually scanned.
In Bridgeport Connecticut, Mayor John Fabrizi got a demonstration of BootFinder and said that within five minutes he had identified three cars whose owners – according to the city government-- owed $900 in taxes.
"I was very impressed," Fabrizi said.
The BootFinder system is especially common in cities that have a large transient population (such as college towns) with many rentals and apartments. The BootFinder operator cruises apartment complexes, grabbing people’s cars.
The owner of a Buick Regal almost had his car grabbed because the BootFinder said the owner hadn't paid $240 in tickets, while Traffic and Parking department records showed he only owed $90.
The city Tax Collector had no explanation for the system's inaccuracy.
