You are. Snowden revelations showed at least one program specifically targeting Wikipedia.
I think you actually get on a list for doing basically anything. You only get looked up in the list if you're actually doing something in real life.
I mean, if I were going to design an antifa threat profiling traffic analyzer, I wouldn't exclude wikipedia
Concidering how the FBI has been going through our, I shit you not, Twitter memes to build their network of threat profiling, I wouldn't rule out traffic monitoring of certain webpages.
I get the feeling that if I can find the information in like a minute of google searching, I’m not gonna be assassinated for it
Not assassinated yet, but they look into what you are up to a little.
They already have files on every single person with a digital footprint. Maybe they just run a program to weed out what else you've looked at to see why you are looking at this. Regardless, money isn't really a problem because they have massive funding that they can throw away on whatever.
In communist east Germany they had Stasi files on every citizen and monitored their every movement
Yeah I guess they could do some automated algorithmic stuff, but man-hours are still very limited.
I love how the laws of capitalism require constant either expansion of industry or reduction in staff to the point that they end up shooting themselves in the foot by reducing the collective labor power of the very traitors who are meant to protect them.
The exception being police, but police are more compensated through local petty bourgeoisie. As the rapidly increasing financial crises begin to completely eradicate that class, there will be nothing left to protect them...
If they add you to a list tomorrow or three years from now, it doesn't really matter. They don't need to get things done quickly because most people are just terminally online or just reading about random stuff.
Eh, not a big deal. They’re not gonna fuck with me, I’m not an adventurer or whatever the term Lenin used
I haven't read enough yet to understand, what is Lenin's adventurer? I'm currently imagining defeating capitalism like it's a zelda game.
It’s adventurism or whatever, basically doing larp shit at times where they don’t help and instead hurt movements
Government doesn't necessarily need lists when the media makes sure that questioning anything it does is considered beyond the pale. Also, Brace is literally on a watch list, it's not like lefty organizers aren't being tracked.
Also, Brace is literally on a watch list
Radicalizing the CIA by doing a podcast some dudes in the CIA are forced to listen to.
Love to sit in on the meeting at Langley that has a giant slide that says "brace Belden aka pisspiggranddad aka da gay pussy eatah"
there is a lot of pdfs that are available to read on the cia website that are pretty damn factual but ngl i don't like clicking those links lol
If Wikipedia is run by the CIA, they're doing about as well as at their jobs as the rest of the government.
