I've been telling people for years not to use shopper cards, discount
cards, or clubs at stores. Last year my sister got coupons tailored to
exactly what she purchased, but didn't ever fill anything out. Rude
awakening, they scanned her purchase history. In addition, the CDC
"Sort of" let out that they used these shopper/check cards to track down
people that purchased potentially tainted meat. So we KNOW govt has
access to this data, when they want it. So if I purchase Hummus, am I a
terrorist? Surprising, it has been alluded that they want RFID listed
under the patriot act to force people to accept this, and the tracking
it involves. (with legal mandate)
A good friend of mine was put on a "Watch List" for purchasing a book
off Amazon called "Crossing the Rubicon". He wasn't too happy about
that situation. My mother was in a library in a rural county checking
out a book called "American Prophet", a red screen came up when the
clerk scanned it. The clerk called another clerk and said "You have to
call that number". They did, and had to give the person on the other
end my mothers personal information, and then a "Code" that would allow
them to move past that screen. For the next week my mother said she got
strange calls trying to ask her survey questions about this or that, and
said her number is unlisted, and nobody but family tends to know it.
Years ago I repeatedly tried to purchase a book called "How to become
invisible" by a guy that goes into huge detail about how to regain some
of your privacy in a world gone wrong. The first company I bought it
from online emailed me a few days later and said "Sorry, we can't sell
you this.".. I picked another company, tried again, got "Sorry this
book is unavailable for you.". So I started encrypting my connection
full time to 2048-Bit, using SSL/TLS, and switched to pre-paid Visa
cards from the drug store, and the sale went through perfectly fine.
Funny how that works out.. Now my techniques are way beyond this, and it
is for good reason.
I'm honest to a fault, I do no wrong - ever, but when you start talking
to people about stuff like natural cures, and other things (Zappers,
Lyme, Cancer, Herbs, Ionizers, CS, Cell, Orgone, take your pick), you
sort of start to gain a bit more attention. Think this is nonsense?
Check into the guy that invented "Cansema", a cancer cure. Its
unbelievable! They even tried to get him to hire undercover
agents(unknown to him) to help make the stuff, they setup fake copy
companies to sell fake versions to trick people.. Eventually he left to
Ecuador, became a citizen there. But the FDA/CIA kidnapped him at
gunpoint on a dark road in Ecuador, rushed him to an American Airlines
plane. The Ecuadorian govt. sent troops to stop them from taking one of
their citizens, and were told that the aircraft was US-Soil. Now he's
rotting in a prison in this country, for what? Curing Cancer. This is
serious business!
Chris Gussa has been trageted, quite often apparently.. Some old cowboy
that just wants to help people.. It's really disgusting.. This is his
website: http://plantcures.com/
So in reality, I suspect Dick is right. Basically you get keyworded,
flagged, the monitoring clicks on. If you are sneaky, know a lot about
these kinds of operations, have done your research, and deploy
countermeasures, then they will get frustrated, and drop you off the
list unless you pose an immediate threat to their agenda. (whatever that
may be) Human intel is expensive, time consuming, and unreliable unless
it is someone that poses a higher risk. (Cansema, Wikileaks, Don Croft, etc)

It's not paranoia if they are really after you. And we already know
they are. I get spam email ads based on what they read in my emails
(yahoo and gmail both do this, and I'm sure all the "free" ones do as
well). And if they feel free to read your emails, both coming and
going, for purposes of advertising, what other purposes do "they"
have, and how many "theys" are there doing this?
I can't wait until I get a knock on the door based on something I said
in an email.
Or it could be more subtle, e.g., you talk about certain subjects and
then find to your surprise that you are on a special scrutiny list
when you try to get on a flight somewhere. A friend of mine is on a
do-not-fly list, and can't figure out how he got there, and they won't
tell him..
