Big Sister Surveillance by Heart Beat By Brian Simpson

     It is hard to keep up on how Big Sister is working to monitor us. Have you heard of heart beat surveillance? No? Well here is what you need to know:

“As if we aren’t being tracked, recorded, and monitored enough, the Pentagon now has a laser that can identify a person by their heartbeat. Your heartbeat is going to be a lot harder to hide than your face… So, when is enough surveillance enough? Apparently, there’s no line the government can cross that will rile up the masses. We’ve got facial recognition in airports and schools, cars that can be unlocked just by looking at them, technology that can detect a person’s unique way of walking, and of course the ubiquitous fingerprint, used for everything from smartphones to event ticketing. Next on the agenda…Your heartbeat, according to an article written by Engadget. As MIT Technology Review reports, the Pentagon has developed a laser that can identify people from a distance by their heartbeat alone. The technology, known as Jetson, uses laser vibrometry to identify surface movement on the skin caused by a heartbeat, and it works from 200 meters away. Everyone’s cardiac signature is unique, and unlike faces and fingerprints, it can’t be altered in any way. As with facial recognition and other biometrics which rely on optimal conditions, though, Jetson does have a few challenges.

It works through regular clothing such as a shirt, but not thicker garments, such as a winter coat. It also takes about 30 seconds to collect the necessary information, so right now it only works if the target is sitting or standing still. And, of course, its efficiency would also depend on some kind of cardiac database. Nonetheless, under the right conditions, Jetson has over 95 percent accuracy. –Engadget. This would mean the Pentagon’s goal is to create a cardiac database of everyone’s heartbeat in order to monitor, track, and surveil all of us. Orwell’s future looks better than what we’re going to be experiencing. Official documents from the Combating Terrorism Technical Support Office (CTTSO) suggest this has been in the works for some time. However, it could have other applications as well. Proponents say that this could help doctors wirelessly monitor patients, and it may very well be sold to the public as such using propaganda.  However, if history is any indication, this will be used as a tool of mass surveillance just like our smartphones are now. Move over facial recognition! The government is going to soon track us by our cardiac signatures!”

     Now I know that most freedom lovers focus in these types of reports on the use of technology, but the actual technology produced by so-called high IQ egg heads is seldom attacked by conservatives, who seem to believe that technology is value free, and in fact they worship science and technology, especially IT and computers in something of a new religion. But, technology is not value free, and most technology brings with it massive social ramifications.

     Unfortunately, the critique of science and technology in undertaken mainly by the Left, so that the position that much of modern technology is intrinsically destructive of traditional values (e.g. the pill led to 1960s sexual revolution, hence family decline, feminism etc.), does not get made. In the future I will undertake to pour it out on this theme, defending a sensible neo-Luddite position. And why not, because if we are social outcasts here, we need to be the best social outcasts we can be, when the society that does the out casting is insane:
