Americans Are The Most Spied On People In World History

More Spying On Citizens than in Stasi East Germany

TechDirt notes:

In a radio interview, Wall Street Journal reporter Julia Angwin (who’s been one of the best at covering the surveillance state in the US) made a simple observation that puts much of this into context: the US surveillance regime has more data on the average American than the Stasi ever did on East Germans.

Indeed, the American government has more information on the average American than Stalin had on Russians, Hitler had on German citizens, or any other government has ever had on its people.

The American government is collecting and storing virtually every phone call, purchases, email, text message, internet searches, social media communications, health information, employment history, travel and student records, and virtually all other information of every American.

Some also claim that the government is also using facial recognition software and surveillance cameras to track where everyone is going. Moreover, cell towers track where your phone is at any moment, and the major cell carriers, including Verizon and AT&T, responded to at least 1.3 million law enforcement requests for cell phone locations and other data in 2011. And – given that your smartphone routinely sends your location information back to Apple or Google – it would be child’s play for the government to track your location that way.

As the top spy chief at the U.S. National Security Agency explained this week, the American government is collecting some 100 billion 1,000-character emails per day, and 20 trillion communications of all types per year.

He says that the government has collected all of the communications of congressional leaders, generals and everyone else in the U.S. for the last 10 years.

He further explains that he set up the NSA’s system so that all of the information would automatically be encrypted, so that the government had to obtain a search warrant based upon probably cause before a particular suspect’s communications could be decrypted. But the NSA now collects all data in an unencrypted form, so that no probable cause is needed to view any citizen’s information. He says that it is actually cheaper and easier to store the data in an encrypted format: so the government’s current system is being done for political – not practical – purposes.

He says that if anyone gets on the government’s “enemies list”, then the stored information will be used to target them. Specifically, he notes that if the government decides it doesn’t like someone, it analyzes all of the data it has collected on that person and his or her associates over the last 10 years to build a case against him."

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] achusaysblessyou:
You've been reading too many conspiracy theories, but no, i turned off CarrierIQ (unless it's still running despite my telling it to not collect information). I also notice that in my battery life Maps was about 16% of my battery usage, although it's true every time i wake up my phone (hit the power button) my GPS goes on, so that's probably a factor. I don't really notice the battery drop, although I don't expect to have to use my device more than a day so it doesn't bother me.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wshyang:
Hi all,

Sorry if my post is particularly noobish :)

I've actually been wanting to get certain scripts running on my international i9300 at boot time. At the moment, my phone is running a rom with a insecure kernel and init.d support (Hyperlight), but what I am hoping to find is something similar to my old Nexus One which had the infamous "install-recovery.sh" script.

A possible problem with using init.d script is that I need my script to run at a certain run level (ie: before Android starts up) but with init.d, it doesn't seem to allow me to do so.

Is there something similar to install-recovery.sh on the i9300?

For some reason flashing boot files isnt working anymore (I'm S-ON). Below is the screenshot. The green progress bar quickly loads up when the file is flashed then nothing happens when i hit "power" on the highlighted 'bootloader' it just checks the SD card but never asks to update. I'm extracting the boot.img right from the ROM into my unlock tools folder, just as I've always done. This won't work on my AOSP ROM or on a Sense ROM. I've used a Sense ROM with Aroma installer and bootloader did ask to update, which I did but the kernel never took. Any ideas??

I've actually got my paperclip ready and my research done.....I just dont want whatever this issue is to not allow me to do what I need to during that process.
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
Are you sure it didn't flash? Check your kernel version in the phone info.

I think what you're describing as not happening is for when you flash in hboot. I don't think you get that update question when you flash via fastboot. It's been a long time since I flashed a kernel so someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Rereading your post, I'm not sure if you're saying you can't boot into the phone or if you're just expecting it to ask you to update. If it won't boot, make sure you don't have a ph98img file on your SD card. You can also use the reboot command on your pc but I can't remember what it is and my notes on that are on another computer.

[General Questions and Answers] ndowens:
I have found a guide, wish I could post the link, but they have a stockkernel/pre-rootedkernel/drivers/odin/ Downloads on the guide and wondered if anybody here has tried acsyndicate's guide? I was hoping to be able to use something like unlockroot or superoneclick but neither works for my phone. I get the prerooted kernel is the kernel that has been rooted, and maybe the stock kernel download would be the original kernel right . And what about OTA updates? I want to make sure also that I could go back from rooting.

Hi all, you know, today samsung give us android 4.1.2 with multiview!

I was looking to how to add other app to multiview, and i saw that all i need to do is to add some line to framework-res.apk into file arrays under res/values.

I'd like to add into multiview whatsapp and instagram (i don't use lots applications...)

I decompiled it with apktool, but now when i try to recomplile it gave me error...

Is there someone who would do that? If you want to add other app and share it with the comunity is not a problem,!

Here is a litte how to:

go to /res/values/arrays.xml

find the part relating to multiview (search ‘multi’)

add package names for apps you want added and save (in my case com.whatsapp and com.instagram.android)

Thanks in advance,

It seems that my car only recognizes the media portion of my S3 over Bluetooth. When I go to pair it, my phone shows my car as headphones only, no phone. Is this a problem with my phone or my car? I have a Mazda CX-5.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] m4tt.03:
Hello fellow Xda members. I was hoping to get some advice from the community on how to go about my pre order dilemma. So I am a current Verizon wireless subscriber and currently have 4 lines with Verizon. All of our lines had 1 more year remaining before contract was fulfilled and we were up for full upgrades. We received an email saying that they were going to offer 2 of our lines a limited time promotional upgrade. This was due to those lines still having basic phones. (Mother and Father in law) :D So my mother in law was so gracious to allow me to pre order the note 2 on her line so that I can have it. According to Verizon we have to keep the note 2 on her line for 2 weeks, before we can switch it over to mine. Is there a way to avoid this? Obviously cause I don't want to wait another 2 weeks, well and my mother in law wouldn't know what to do with it. LOL Also my other reason for wanting to avoid her having it for 2 weeks, is because I know verizon is going to charge us for a data plan on her line for the whole 2 weeks she would have it. I am not sure if it would work like this, but since they are shipping it to my house, I figure I can just call them and have them switch the IMEI and just purchase a new sim card for my number?

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bern612:
Was wondering the same thing. I have a flip phone on one of my lines and ordered the note 2 also. So you are saying I have to keep the phone on that line for 2 weeks then I could switch it to my phone. Did they say if you could downgrade the plan back to a no data plan.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] m4tt.03:
Well to be honest my situation may be a different exception than your situation. They said it had to stay on my mother in laws line for 2 weeks because it was a promotional offer for the full upgrade. Since they were offering her upgrade a year only because they were still on "basic" phones.I haven't asked about downgrading the pan to a no data plan yet. I just want to try to avoid having to add a data plan for just one month, considering my mother in law would not make use of it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] clemson91:
Don't worry, when you get the Galaxy note 2 just follow these steps:

1. Activate Galaxy Note 2 on the line you upgraded (your mother in law.) Let it get signal and settle for a couple minutes.

2. Now reactivate the phone that was previously on that line. If that happens to be a basic phone, as soon as you activate it, the data plan will be dropped since you can't have data on a basic phone. You will be charge the prorated price of a dollar if you had the 2GB data plan for $30 since it is considered to have been active for one day.

3. Basically the Galaxy Note 2 is unlocked to any Verizon line or account now. The reason you must activate it first on the line you purchased it for is due to the shipping security procedure to ensure you received the phone.

I've done this a couple of times it literally take about 5-10 mins, and is really simple.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] m4tt.03:
Well thanks for the information, so once I remove it from her account all that i would need to do is purchase a sim card for my line to put into the note 2, right? I am currently using a loaner HTC Rezound until I get my note 2, can I just use that sim card? Once again, thanks for all your help!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] clemson91:
I have a Rezound as well right now, you can't use that sim card since you need a micro sim and the Rezound use a standard sim. You could try cutting it, but it would be simpler just get a new one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] m4tt.03:
That's what I figured! I just hope they hurry up and finish building that Verizon wireless store near me. LOL I live on the oregon coast and the nearest Verizon wireless at this time is 60 miles away.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] clemson91:
Damn that's far, I think you can get them to mail you one, I'm gonna call Verizon later today and see because I'd like to have the sim as soon as I get the phone, but there luckily is a store close by if not. I'll let ya know though later.

Team Win Recovery Project 2.8, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added a lot of our own features. It’s a fully touch driven user interface – no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

Just a few comments:

- can't mount SD Card in Recovery (or at least can't access to it)

- backup/nandroid is saved in (SDCard - DATA) / TWP

and not in (SDCard - DATA)/media, so can't access to the back-up
[HTC One X+] Lloir:
cant access it from TWRP? or? i cant test sdcard mount as linux is being a *****, but it looks like it mounts fine, i have a nandroid and i can see it to restore......

*edit*

nevermind see what you mean, i'll sort it for the next build
[HTC One X+] milestoner:
I can confirm that mount points are borked at the moment. While in recovery the sdcard can be found in /sdcard/media. Backing up seem to work ok but backups are insanely huge (6.6GB for a compressed backup!). This is probably because everything including the whole sdcard is backed up. While TWRP itself finds the backups just fine, when android is running they are located in /data/TWRP. I haven't tried to restore a backup yet.

I'm a little bit worried about what will happen later if I try to restore one of my backups that are made with the current TWRP version. Will the fixed version recognize and correct the mixed up mount points of the current version? If not, I can forget about all of my current backups :(.

It still has the alpha tag on it (on the title at least when in the recovery).

Charging works while in the recovery and after about 2 minutes, your battery percent will change from 66% to the actual value along with the "+".
