These Words When used On Social Networks Will Trigger Something or Someone Vs.You

The Dept of Homeland Security has been forced to release the list of words they use to spy on social networks. If You use any of those words you are putting yourself on their scope. Lots of people will not be concern but for those who resent being spy on, the list is for you.

I don’t personally have nothing against the list or being spy on a social network because I know that what ever I print there is not completely secured. I do resent being monitored on my private cell or phone without a court order.  But the law changed under the auspices of Pres Bush after 9/11 and continued under the current president in which they no longer need to get a courts permission to do it. The words the use is,  National Security.

Terrorism analysts are instructed to search for evidence of unfolding natural disasters, public health threats and serious crimes such as mall/school shootings, major drug busts, illegal immigrant busts.

The list has been posted online by the Electronic Privacy Information Center - a privacy watchdog group who filed a request under the Freedom of Information Act before suing to obtain the release of the documents.

In a letter to the House Homeland Security Subcommittee on Counter-terrorism and Intelligence, the centre described the choice of words as 'broad, vague and ambiguous'.

They point out that it includes 'vast amounts of First Amendment protected speech that is entirely unrelated to the Department of Homeland Security mission to protect the public against terrorism and disasters.' 

A senior Homeland Security official told the Huffington Post that the manual 'is a starting point, not the endgame' in maintaining situational awareness of natural and man-made threats and denied that the government was monitoring signs of dissent. 

However the agency admitted that the language used was vague and in need of updating. 

Spokesman Matthew Chandler told website: 'To ensure clarity, as part of ... routine compliance review, DHS will review the language contained in all materials to clearly and accurately convey the parameters and intention of the program.'
