Surveillance Cameras Around The Country Are Being Used In A Huge Spy Network

David Seaman Online

The U.S. cable networks won’t be covering this one tonight (not
accurately, anyway), but Trapwire is making the rounds on social media
today — it reportedly became a Trending hashtag on Twitter earlier in
the day.

Trapwire is the name of a program revealed in the latest Wikileaks
bonanza: it is the mother of all leaks, by the way. Trapwire would make
something like disclosure of UFO contact or imminent failure of a major
U.S. bank fairly boring news by comparison.

And the ambitious techno-fascists behind Trapwire seem to be quite
disappointed that word is getting out so swiftly: the Wikileaks web site
is reportedly sustaining 10GB worth of DDoS attacks each second, which
is massive.

Anyway, here’s what Trapwire is, according to Russian-state owned
media network RT (apologies for citing “foreign media”… if we had a free
press, I’d be citing something published here by an American media
conglomerate): “Former senior intelligence officials have created a
detailed surveillance system more accurate than modern facial
recognition technology — and have installed it across the US under the
radar of most Americans, according to emails hacked by Anonymous.

Every few seconds, data picked up at surveillance points in major
cities and landmarks across the United States are recorded digitally on
the spot, then encrypted and instantaneously delivered to a fortified
central database center at an undisclosed location to be aggregated with
other intelligence. It’s part of a program called TrapWire and it's the
brainchild of the Abraxas, a Northern Virginia company staffed with
elite from America’s intelligence community.

The employee roster at Arbaxas reads like a who’s who of agents once
with the Pentagon, CIA and other government entities according to their
public LinkedIn
profiles, and the corporation's ties are assumed to go deeper than even
documented. The details on Abraxas and, to an even greater extent
TrapWire, are scarce, however, and not without reason. For a program
touted as a tool to thwart terrorism and monitor activity meant to be
under wraps, its understandable that Abraxas would want the program’s
public presence to be relatively limited. But thanks to last year’s hack
of the Strategic Forecasting intelligence agency, or Stratfor, all of
that is quickly changing."
