New metadata tag added to each individual's archive. We already know thanks to Snowden that they've been collecting EVERYTHING and using it to effectively go back in time and retroactively monitor anyone they want.
I‘m guessing for now all this data is functionally useless since there is too much of it and you can‘t really differentiate between shit poster and actual threat.
What I wonder though, if eventually some AI could predict future behaviour, like say they fed it digital footprints of those that go ahead and do something, could it spot those similar?
Well, I hope I‘ll be dead by then cause I don‘t want to see the future police states at work, it‘s bad enough as it is.
I would be extremely concerned about anybody with positive views of health insurance, only slightly less so if they were directly enriching themselves off of it.
Saint Luigi of Baltimore, forgive us our debts. Deliver us from the greed of the Wicked. Protect us in sickness and in health. Lead us from the labyrinth of insurance denials. Bring Justice to the Merchants of Death.
Okay, we already know the spooks are already monitoring everyone. We've known this for a long time. They don't have to come up with an excuse to try and tell us.
The document is one of a flurry threat reports quietly circulated to law enforcement across the country by a sprawling network of little-known intelligence organizations created in response to 9/11. Called fusion centers, groups like the New York State Intelligence Center were tasked with fighting terrorism, which alleged the killer Luigi Mangione was charged with. Today, there is at least one fusion center in all 50 states (even Wyoming, home to the Wyoming Information Analysis Team.)
Marked “LAW ENFORCEMENT USE ONLY,” the document quoted above is, like other intelligence reports, not usually available to the public. But this record was pried loose by the open records wizardry of the transparency nonprofit Property of the People. Without them, this report would join the countless others exempt from public scrutiny. That’s a real gift to the government agencies that produce these reports, which often serve little purpose beyond inflating supposed threats into zeppelin-like proportions.
Consider, for example, the report’s boldfaced title —“Executive ‘Hit Lists’” — evoking some kind of John Wick-style serial hitman. But the evidence for this amounts to “viral posts online” that “listed the names and salaries of several health insurance executives” and some “Wanted” signs posted in Manhattan.
How is this different than before? The NSA and every other three letter agency has been sweeping up domestic data and doing warrantless monitoring of U.S. citizens for as long as they've had the capability.
It would seem they have a conflict of interest. Choosing life or death for someone where not providing care would be less costly. Morality = / = legality.
It would seem to make sense to allow the doctors to be advocates for their patients, but I get that oversight is needed too. It’s not an easy situation to solve. There are clearly glaring issues in the current system.
In case it’s unclear murder is wrong if done by 1 person or a collective entity through an indirect series of actions.
E: fixed formatting = / = Without spaces changes to equal and not ‘not equal’
There are doctors and organizations who scam the insurance, and this is used for justifying these systems being in place; however in the for-profit world especially these are increasingly used as a tool for profit rather than loss protections.
Agreed, and that’s the hard part. Finding and promoting good and right while removing greed. Oversight is needed, but doesn’t this feel a bit like the wolf watching the sheep?
The system isn’t completely broken, but it has glaring issues. Transparency and accountability is missing. Rules for thee and me need to match with equity.
“Good”, “right”, and “fair” seem to be dying in society.
We can only be our own little light in a sea of darkness…maybe with a little luck we can make the world a little brighter.
fun fact: insurance companies allow that to happen because its cheaper than preventing it and hilariously why there is less fraud via medicare/medicaid.
so next time you hear that non-sense for an excuse know that it is false and entirely of their own making.
Is this supposed to scare a taxpaying citizen of allegedly free country?
I guess normies will larp but JFC
Luigi did nothing wrong and spooks trying to scare public won't change the opinion but they want to suppress the sentiment so their owners feel better.
It is disgusting that these Snow flakes need the government to make them feel at easy, the government that working pedon funds.
