The Federal Reserves Prepares To Eavesdrop On Everything Mentioning The Fed?

[Ichingcarpenter]

Two weeks ago, the media's heart went aflutter when it learned that the president had borrowed a page right out of ole' Joe McCarthy's communist witch hunt book with the launch of Attack Watch. The response by everyone, even fans of Obama, was immediate and brutal. Yet where Obama took about 24 hours to crash and burn, someone else has stepped in with a far stealthier method of ferreting out the traitors amongst us: none other than our old friends, the Federal Reserve Bank of the United States, which in a Request for Proposals filed to companies that are Fed vendors, is requesting the creation of a "Social Listening Platform" whose function is to "gather data from various social media outlets and news sources." It will "monitor billions of conversations and generate text analytics based on predefined criteria." The Fed's desired product should be able to "determine the sentiment of a speaker or writer with respect to some topic or document"... "The solution must be able to gather data from the primary social media platforms – Facebook, Twitter, Blogs, Forums and YouTube. It should also be able to aggregate data from various media outlets such as: CNN, WSJ, Factiva etc." Most importantly, the "Listening Platform" should be able to "Handle crisis situations, Continuously monitor conversations, and Identify and reach out to key bloggers and influencers." Said otherwise, the Fed has just entered the counterespionage era and will be monitoring everything written about it anywhere in the world. After all, why ask others to snitch for you and anger everyone as Obama found out the hard way, when you can pay others to create the supreme FIATtack WatchTM using money you yourself can print in unlimited amounts. And once the Internet is completely "transparent", the Fed will next focus on telephone conversations, and finally will simply bug each and every otherwise "private" location in the world. Because very soon saying that "printing money is treason" will be treason, and such terrorist thoughts must be pre-crimed before they even occur.

All we can say is we welcome our new Chairsatan Voldemort overlord. For it is truly he who must not be named henceforth.

From the key section of the RFP, presented in its entirety below:

I. Introduction

Social media platforms are changing the way organizations are communicating to the public Conversations are happening all the time and everywhere.
There is need for the Communications Group to be timely and proactively aware of the reactions and opinions expressed by the general public as it relates to the Federal Reserve and its actions on a variety of subjects.

II. Social Listening Platforms

Social media listening platforms are solutions that gather data from various social media outlets and news sources. They monitor billions of conversations and generate text analytics based on predefined criteria. They can also determine the sentiment of a speaker or writer with respect to some topic or document.
The information gathered can guide the organizations public relations group in assessing the effectiveness of communication strategy

Allen Greenspan, the former Federal Reserve Chairman, when asked about the relationship of The Federal Reserve and the President. He answers, "Quiet frankly it does not matter who is President as far as the Fed is concerned"

Verbatim
Question:
What is the proper relationship or what should be the proper relationship between a Chairman of the Fed and a President of the United States?
Answer:
Well, first of all, the Federal Reserve is an independent agency, and that means that there is no other agency of government which can overrule actions that we take. So long as that is in place, and there is no evidence that the administration or the congress or anybody else is requesting that we do things other than what we think is the appropriate thing, then what the relationships are don't, frankly, matter.

1. We are going to end up talking in code.

Imagine, the FED is publicly talking about eavesdropping on "millions of conversations"
about its activities, players, etc.
Openly talking about it.

And about that Greenspan quote:
"Well, first of all, the Federal Reserve is an independent agency, and that means that there is no other agency of government which can overrule actions that we take."

If I had a dollar for every insistent comment on DU that the Fed is a government agency,
I would be very rich indeed.

4. This could be fun

FB Friend: Whats up?

Me: Fed my kids dinner. I reserve the right to make them eat my meatloaf explosion.

FB friend: Are they protesting?

Me: Not yet. They said they will if I make my meatloaf explosion again.


Instead of using code, posters should flood the net using the key words in another context. Making their program meaningless.

5. So lets give them some good reading material. Use the key words

in every article we post.




Federal Reserve - Federal Reserve!

6. That's

the plan.

I had fun during the boosh years talking on the phone. I swear several times I was being listened to. If everyone did this the overload would destroy them.

I am so fed up, my head feels like exploding. Reserve seating only for the show.
