  2. It is worse than that. Facebook tracks you even if you don’t have an account. One of the top blocked sites in my NextDNS.io is “graph.facebook.com”. The F icon, web bugs (1×1 totally transarent pixel “images”) and other things are building a cyber dossier on you. Since my job is computers, I have to be online.

      2. Not actually a myth. When I had to get a new Samsung for work, the seller told me right up front that this newest upgrade

        ‘can never be actually totally turned off, and the user cannot remove the battery. Even when turned off using the control screens this design still pings cell towers which do track this phone using the battery.’

        Forewarned is forearmed. I simply don’t carry this phone certain places, and intentionally carry it to others to plant data I want to get into the system database.

        I got a second, burner phone from Walmart for 60 bucks and unlimited voice and texting on it for 28 bucks a month. It you must have a phone, it is a cheap way to go and doesn’t get nearly the data mining activity and marketing the smart phones are subjecting us to. And it has a removable battery.

        1. Yes there is malware that can be used to make it appear that your phone is turned off but is actually still on. But as I said when your cell phone is turned “off” it cannot be tracked.

          It is also possible that a phone can be manufactured to keep part of the circuitry active even when turned off; that is the concern with Huawei and part of the reason the U.S. is banning them.

          There were a few older phones that would still check for SMS messages every ten minutes when turned off. Very unlikely anyone still has one of these

          If you think that someone deemed you so important that they went to the trouble of infecting your phone with malware so that it wouldn’t turn of there is a simple test for this. Fully charge it, shut it off for a month and power it up and check the charge; should be 100% If it is a lot less then maybe the NSA is tracking you.

          A better way is to get some test equipment and to check for any signal coming from your phone when it is turned of.

          1. Already tested this Galaxy 9. When transmitting, while fully :turned off” it makes two different radios buzz….my BaoFeng, and an old plug-in AM FM.

            No Malware except what was designed and built in.

            Like I said, the sales lady told me right up front.

  5. A necessary evil: God how I hate that phrase. I understand it. I’m subjected to it. I’m also subject to it as well but it is simply terrible in it’s ruthless assessment of the situation. We are all chattel in a world of necessary evil and willful disregard. It can be utterly depressing and it you let it, soul crushing. What does one do? Endeavor to persevere. Rise and stand. Do not give up. Do not give in. Learn and educate. Grow and give. Be the light that holds the darkness at bay.

    See the world as it is and work to make it as it should be.

    1. Wow, inventive on the part of the mom, but she’ll rightfully be getting locked up for it! The cop should also sue her for everything she has once she is convicted. I actually think this is a good thing, it shows another example of how these laws are a farce. Maybe it’ll move some people towards reconsidering (but I doubt it).

    2. How many cop murders are not “justified?”,why would the Mother be prosecuted? He killed someone with a firearm,should happen to most cops(criminal psycopath thugs with badges) when they commit crimes under cover of “authority”.

  7. Protection/restraining orders are the most abused (well maybe domestic violence complaints is more abused) legal fantasies. Anyone can file for an RO and the accused is forced to prove their innocence while the accuser is under no similar demand for proof. Once a RO is issued it all becomes worse in that your rights are taken from you and even an accidental or inadvertent infringement can put you in jail. I would argue that it is unconstitutional on it’s face.

  11. I used to build cell phone equipment for a major company. Some phones cannot be turned off from the factory and many apps today prevent it. We used a frequency counter to test for signal as well as data test sets. We tested employee phones for extra credit and were surprised to find that unknown people had access to some phones and could control their functions. It gets creepy real fast when you find out that you’re not alone. Keeping your phone in a Faraday cage or removing the battery will stop the signal coming in as well as out.

    Educate, equip, be active in working to save our country….pray.

  12. AFAIK IV8888: Military Cutlery Video is not very precise and accurate, especially in the history of the Bajonett and others.
    Guns were used without the Option to attach blades and the first bajonett was plugged in the Barrel of the gun some after the Thirty years war in this war as well as the english civil war etc, musketeers would be pritected by pikemen.
    btw when he says pike i think he means a spear.

    The german Military pocket knife isn´t a west german , when i served we were issued it´s predecessor after the re unification.
    The Thing on italian pocket knife is i believe a can opener
