UTAH DATA REPOSITORY MUST BE SCRAPPED

SPECIAL POST

That highly secret, humongous campus in Utah that is nearly ready to start up needs to be shut down before it ever opens.  It will officially be known as the Intelligence Community Comprehensive National Cybersecurity Initiative Data Center, and if you believe the proponents, it will be a benign place where innocuous data that would never harm a flea will be collected.  That, of course, must be why it is why it's Top Secret.  

The planned structure is approaching 1.5 million square feet and it is projected to cost up to $2 billion when finished in September 2013.  One report suggested that it will cost another $2 billion for hardware, software, and maintenance.  The data center will be able to capture "all forms of communication, including the complete contents of private emails, cell phone calls, Internet searches, as well as all sorts of personal data trails—parking receipts, travel itineraries, bookstore purchases, credit and debit card transactions, banking information, income tax returns, healthcare data and other digital 'pocket litter from the date of your birth until the date of your death.  

Now, if you're not going to use it against the populace, why collect it?  And if you think the intentions are benign, you believe Obama had nothing to do with the targeting of tea parties and conservative groups by the Internal Revenue Service.   

That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
