There is a reason for the digital transition that is coming soon and its not so Americans can just get clearer TV. Nor is it so they can free up the old frquencies to auction them off.
First lets look at the cost alone.


cost the government more than $1.3 billion in subsidies.

nytimes

So with our failing roads, bridges & infastructure; the homeless epidemic with people sleeping in the streets: a failed No Child Left Behind act; ever reduced funding to public schools: lack of insurance to the under-employed; a failed welfare system ect; the goverment deems it necessary to spend this money on clearer TV reception. NO WAY!

The purpose of this transition is a covert surveillance agenda to monitor and record every household in the US with a television. People have claimed they opened up their LCD televisions to find Micro-Cameras and Microphones.


I speculated in earlier articles that the mandatory switch over to High Definition TV is driven by a covert surveillance/monitoring agenda and mentioned that it was possible that tiny cameras are now being embedded in newer LCD monitors and TVs. This fellow reports that he has actually taken apart these newer TVs and has discovered said surveillance cameras.

But, you say if the goverment is really spying on us they wouldnt put cameras in devices that are so readily identifiable! Well lets look at how they can watch and record WITHOUT a conventional camera



We could soon see a new kind of display screen from computer maker Apple - one that simultaneously takes pictures while showing images.

The clever idea is to insert thousands of microscopic image sensors in-between the liquid crystal display cells in the screen. Each sensor captures its own small image, but software stitches these together to create a single, larger picture.

A large LCD screen filled with image sensors would be ideal for videoconferencing, Apple suggests, as participants would always appear to look straight into the "camera". The technique could also add a camera function to a cellphone or PDA without wasting space, and light from the screen should help illuminate a subject.

The more sensors there are, the wider and clearer the image. Sketches accompanying the company's patent show as many sensors as liquid crystal cells in a screen. If some of the sensors have different focal lengths, switching between them would make the screen behave like a zoom lens.

If APPLE is emerging with this technology now, guess what, they government has had it for YEARS.


But now you might ask, Even if my Television is recording video and sound, how in the world is that information going to be sent back the government? Great Question! Here is the answer.........Ordinary Power lines! Yes we now have the technology to connect to the internet over regular power lines! And guess what is connected to those very power lines, your Television!



Power line communication or power line carrier (PLC), also known as Power line Digital Subscriber Line (PDSL), mains communication, power line telecom (PLT), or power line networking (PLN), is a system for carrying data on a conductor also used for electric power transmission. Broadband over Power Lines (BPL) uses PLC by sending and receiving radio signals over power lines to provide access to the Internet.




There you have it, The means to record you via a LCD tv WITHOUT a camera AND the means to send that information through that regular outlet that TV is plugged into.

And lets not forget they can do it with your Compter also.........

Please absorb all the information in my post, the point is they now can record WITHOUT a camera

please refute the "camera-less video ability now emerging from APPLE built INBETWEEN the LCD crystals, No lenses!!


And furthermore you are wrong about the coax cable, they can connect to the internet with only POWER LINES where no one else has access except the government! please refer to my sources for confirmation of this technology. i never claimed they used coax cables, it can now connect over power lines.

I don't buy this at all.............

1. US Government is requiring conversion. Why would they spend 1+ billion dollars to save RF space? Well let's see....Bring infrastructure into the 21st century. Are we supposed to use the crappy antiquated technology indefinitely? We get better quality, more on less RF bandwidth. A dozen other countries have already switched over and dozens more are on schedule to. It's not just us. Are all of these countries moving forward with the same plan, collecting information also--right, it's the NWO.

2. Technology for integrating cameras into televisions is possible with Apple technology, therefore it is possible. So the US government has worked with all manufactures to incorporate this into televisions? This is quite a jump with nothing to back it up. What about the majority of people in the US who have old televisions and cable or satellite boxes? Was the picture/video capturing built into these boxes? What about the old ones, are the cycling out the old with new devices to hit everyone? And for those only receiving broadcast only (20% in US), the video capture is in the new boxes ,right? So all of the TV, cable box, and converter manufactures are in on this. And of course, nobody has leaked anything or has any first hand knowledge.

3. It all gets transmitted over power lines. Doubtful--BPL has been tested in a variety of cities and has caused significant (debilitating) interference with radio signals. So this technology concept is active nation wide (at a smaller level) and not causing any interference? And all of the independent companies providing power are colluding with the US Government to intercept this and redistribute to the US Government? And of course, nobody has leaked anything or has any first hand knowledge.

A lot of jumps with nothing to back it up.

All the pieces are there, its upto us to put them together, of course i dont have anything but theory to back this up, Its not like i have a copy of Secret Bush memo's stating this is to come, im simply stating all the technology is there and with the amount of spying the the govenrment already admits to like, every phone call, cell call, email, text message and instant message recorded documented and searched for key words that will later flag that transmission for human review, that now they want even the information thats not transmitted electronically, like the conversations we think we have in the privacy of our own house..This isnt a huge leap, you should look into what the NSA Publicly admits to doing, and what they do covertly is even more astonishing....

Ok, ok, everyone can calm down now.

There is one very crucial thing you have overlooked in your OP:

Why would the government care to watch people staring blankly into a television set?

Maybe you need to read that one again. And then again. Let me ask you this personally: if you theoretically COULD monitor the households of millions of Americans as they sat slack-jawed watching Everybody Loves Raymond and Friends re-runs, would you? I mean, sure, at first probably anyone would, just for the novelty of it, or maybe in hopes of catching fine women who watched TV in the nude.

But really? Don't you think it would get...I don't know...kind of *old* eventually? Seriously....if people didn't have much of a life watching TV, then how much of a life could you possibly having watching people watch TV?

Not to mention the sheer amount of resources the government would have to have in order to monitor even a fraction of the population. Now multiply that by the odds (time wise) that Joe Blow, in between commercial breaks, whips out his map of the next federal targets that he and Suzy Q are going to hit in the next week.

Please inform me what you think the value versus cost ratio involved would be? Let's consider the cost of the infrastructure to begin with (you've already included this, it seems), the time and cost involved with almost every tv set being upgraded accordingly, the time and money spent on manning federal employees who would monitor such a massive spying endeavor, and the time and money spent cataloging, storing, and perhaps analyzing such data (surely this would be recorded, right? Do you have any concept of how much storage capacity would be needed here? Do you have any idea how many hours the average American spends per day watching TV?). We'll just ignore what would have to happen in order to build a legal case to prosecute suspect activity here without blowing such a tremendous cover.

Now let's consider the odds of such a massive endeavor catching "suspect" activity. What's the ratio of the payoff, do you imagine?

So in short....do you perhaps want to rethink the rationality of what you're suggesting before continuing in this thread?
