Cambridge Analytica

FACEBOOK’s Whistleblower; Wylie Coyote BLOWS

Posted on by Helena

A Canadian, Christopher Wylie, has come forth as the ‘whistleblower’ behind the Facebook/Cambridge Analytica dispute. His profile is sketchy, interesting, and doesn’t quite make sense…fit:

 

1) He left school at 16 without graduating. 2) He claims to have worked on the campaign of Liberal would be politician, Michael Ignatieff at 17.   3) Between 18 and 20 he claims to have learned everything he knows under the tutelage of President Obama’s, “National Director of Targeting’ (there is no such agency). 4) Despite having no high school degree, he claims to have gone to the London School of Economics to study law at the age of 20.   5)   He has a Twitter account that states it was opened in 2016, however, it has a handful of ‘tweets’, all of which were produced March 2018.   6)   While in the UK he began working for the Liberal Party in ‘voter targeting’. 7)   With no degrees, he became Director of Research at Cambridge Analytica.   8)   He gave The Guardian information about the alleged data mining in March 2017 – but nothing was said until March 2018.

He is most definitely ‘enjoying’ his recent fame.

So how is it that an obvious pro-Libeal, Obama studded young guy with no education came to be the Director of Research at a very conservative organization?

He claims that his Liberal Democrat friends helped him get the Analytica job in 2013… He claims a personal relationship with Bannon and the Mercers, and yet, he is no one…

The primary funders of Analytica were the Mercers who were also part owners in Breitbart and Renaissance Technologies, a hedge fund.   They are decidedly Conservative.

SCL Group, the parent company of Analytica, apparently also had contracts with the British government which expired and were not renewed by Theresa May.   In addition, they had contracts with the US Defense Department, prior to Trump.   They have been used as a propaganda tool by numerous corporations and governments in Africa, Asia, Australia, Brazil, Mexico, and Latin America.

His most recent claim is the notion that BREXIT was corrupted by his company’s meddling.   What he fails to mention is the fact that George Soros was instrumental in funding the anti-BEXIT campaign. So why isn’t Soros being ‘regulated’? 

Soros NGO’s have been a dominant meddler in media spin, propaganda spin, and corruption for decades, and yet an allowance was given within the Liberal Parties across the globe… because he used his data to their benefit. When Trump used the same analytics, suddenly the Wolves cried ‘UNFAIR’.

Why aren’t the UK and US governments being brought under scrutiny for their role in election meddling across the globe?

And why is the word of this one person, a die hard liberal with an agenda to pick, taken as the gospel truth without further evidence gathering? 

And why is it not discussed that all this took lace under the Obama and Cameron administrations?

And given that Facebook was a party to the Liberal agenda of Hillary Clinton’s campaign, in conjunction with Google, why isn’t she held accountable?

What makes this different is the alleged use of Facebook. But Merkel uses Facebook to censor information in Germany?   How is this different?   Facebook censors itself…   and typically conservative news is the victim. So how is this different?

As has been reported by The Guardian, who led the Analytica story, there are many more companies doing the exact same thing for different campaigns across the globe.   Using computer modeling they simply tap into the frustrations of a class of people and use their frustrations to create slogans and content for the politicians to enhance in speeches. Actually, its not that much different than dressing for the part – remember Nixon vs Kennedy?

Obama utilized these tactics to win his election in 2012…   but no one considered it a crime, in fact, he was lauded for his savvy!

Obviously, Wylie Coyote is a hyped front for the more sinister desire to shut down the conservative voice from Facebook, and other social media platforms given that the MSM has already been devoured by the Big Bad Wolf!

Generally something smells because it stinks.

FACEBOOK; Data Breaches UNHACKED

Posted on by Helena

Data Breaches are the new norm, we have just either forgotten the past cases, or didn’t care. Class Action lawsuits are a joke, the lawyers typically get millions while the clients get minimal cash and sometimes simply a coupon to buy more goods from the defendant.   The Facebook class action is already pooling with lawyers and an “Executive Legal Committee” which will be paid to monitor the merits, fees, billings etc… That’s right, a committee has already been appointed to get part payment of the fees that are likely to implode!

So how many Data Breach class actions are there?   Well there was/is Target, Neiman Marcus, Michaels, Adobe, Snapchat, Kaiser, Boston Medical, Ashley Madison, Equifax, Aetna, Anthem… etc. You get the point.   Hackers are everywhere and our information is constantly hacked.

So you are upset because Facebook used or sold or gave all the information you posted on your ‘About’ page and it was used to – gasp – determine your political bents. Really?   Did you know your Voter ID Card is visible to anyone on Google?   Or howabout the fact that the State and County where you reside posts all your property information and public record data – for anyone to view?   Or howabout Spokeo?   Or the dozens of organizations that, for a fee, will give you information on just about anyone you want to stalk?

Howabout the numerous companies that provide data details for corporations to use for marketing purposes or for sales purposes that were never ‘authorized’?   We used to buy lists at my firm!   Costs varied by the number of targets – 5000, 10,000, 100,000… How do you think you get on phone scam lists? Or junk mail lists?

Did Facebook release your medical records? Your Social Security Number? Your bank account information?   Your credit card data?

Forbes posted an article about the true nature of a class action lawsuit: 

  • In re Heartland Payment Systems Data Security Breach: Out of a purported class of 130 million customers injured by a data breach, 11 claims were paid for a total of $110,000. Lawyers’ take: $641,000.
  • DirectBuy litigation: Class members receive discounts on membership renewals from business that supposedly ripped them off; lawyers get as much as $1 million in fees.

Out of 148 cases that the RAND Corporation researched, the data for four gave the actual settlement statistics.   Lawyers and courts are NOT required to provide this information for the public.   Because in so doing, we might learn what a true ‘Joke’ the process really is.

Cyber attacks are big business, but not necessarily in the way we perceive.   The Veterans Administration alone has reported thwarting 1 billion cyber attacks.   The government has been hacked thousands of times.   Information is rampant.   In 2014, a single U.S. government agency was hit with a blizzard of more than 1,370 external attacks on its most vital computer systems, with three out of every eight incidents resulting in a loss of data, according to a new report by the watchdog Government Accountability Office.” The name of the Agency was not released.   The data was not discussed.

In the ADT Data Breach class action settlement of $16 million each client was awarded ‘up to $45’, while the remainder went to the attorneys.   When Anthem was hacked the lawsuit fetched $115 million – and the clients received ‘free credit monitoring for two years’, and, any provable out-of-pocket expenses incurred as a result of the breach…

In the Target class action attorneys fees amounted to 67.5% of the award.   The stock initially sank 33.33%.   Someone shorted well.   Maybe that is a bigger Legal Issue!   Attorneys and Fund Managers are the winners.

What the lawsuits do is provide a venue for stock manipulation and shorting as the alleged breach is ‘leaked’ by an unknown person as in the Facebook and Cambridge Analytica case.    

FACEBOOK Censorship

Posted on by Helena

It has now been announced that the Federal Trade Commission will be investigating Facebook and their shared use of data with Cambridge Analytica, a conservative leaning and financed offshoot of SCL Group.   Terrell McSweeny is an acting Commissioner of the FTC appointed under Obama and tasked with advising both Obama and Biden. Her previous resume states that she worked at O’Melveny & Myers LLP, a law firm whose client list boasts both Facebook and Google. Odd.

Many of the current ‘notable partners’ at the firm served under Clinton or Obama in such capacities as:   National Security Advisor, the ‘most powerful’ senior advisor to Obama, Director of the White House Military Office, US Secretary of State, and Solicitor General of the US. One of their more ‘notable cases’ involved the Second Amendment right to bear arms – in defending the ban, they lost.

Bringing Facebook to the table is ‘complicated’ due to the fact that Zuckerberg is being made a possible patsy in his bid to be a good ole boy in line with the Democrat agenda of Soros. He is young, vulnerable, wealthy, and easily manipulated. But he also has sights of grandeur that made him a Democrat target. And so, a plan was initiated in which Soros and Zuckerberg would collaborate in regulating Facebook so as to eliminate ‘hate speech’, i.e., conservative opinion voices.   Because it is Soros who is going after Facebook, and thus by default the conservative voice, Cambridge Analytica became the real target.

Whether Zuckerberg actually lost billions, is of no consequence when one considers the percentage. Zuckerberg lost roughly 10%, but still retains a Facebook wealth of about $63 billion (the numbers vary by source but end at $63 billion). Without knowing his true portfolio, estimations are really meaningless.

If Soros can impose the restrictive conditions on Facebook in the US similar to what Merkel has already imposed on Germany, the voice of conservatives will be squelched.   The censorship will be complete, and the propaganda will impale what is left.

Because ‘NOT’ hearing a voice outside of the propaganda media is an old tool, and Soros is well aware of its power as defined by his youth as a Nazi protégé.

I recently came upon a blog by an American living in Russia, who gave credence to other bloggers who have great experience with the Russian culture, pre-Putin, and today, and the voices are considerably different than the presentation demonizing we hear in the US.   These people aren’t alt-right, Nazi’s, right wingers, or any other disglorified label, they are simply people who have a perspective that is not tainted with a boss, an agenda, and a paycheck. They are – you and I.

The point?   Real people tend to have quite different opinions than those of their supposed representative government.  Which is also why Ukraine is a freakin’ mess!   The People rose. Bloggers offer that voice, when the governments attempt to speak for us.

In psychology it is known as the herd mentality in which people believe what they are told because it is as though the thought is beat into them and they must follow. Cast sheep is another analogy when the herd leave the sheep to die because he can not rise up without help.

What we do know is that Soros called for the deep regulation of Facebook and Google, both adamant supporters of Clinton and Obama.   Dissecting the agenda, I imagine Analytica will go down, Facebook will rise, albeit with heavy restrictions on conservative speech, and the VOICE will go underground.

It isn’t really about data protection, otherwise they would target banks, retail outlets, insurance agencies, credit card agencies, Yahoo, Credit rating agencies, and government Voter Registration…   but they don’t.   Because data protection isn’t the real target – CENSORSHIP – is.

Look no further than Merkel, Germany WWII and WWI.
