Opinion: Why NSA spying puts the U.S. in danger

Excerpt: As a former NSA analyst, I'm dismayed by the continuing revelations of the National Security Agency's warrantless -- and therefore illegal -- spying. The case involves fundamental issues related to NSA’s missions and long-standing rules of engagement. What's even more dismaying is the lack of public reaction to this.

Surreptitious Acoustic Signal Modulation, Voice Projection, and Direct Brain Interface

This article deals with the technology to surreptitiously or overtly send "voices" to people. This is a longtime dream of psychological warfare and operations people, and much research and development has gone into it. Huge sums of money have been spent developing ways to send voices, in any and all ways, to targeted people. Many technologies are openly known to exist, and more sophisticated ones no doubt exist in secret. One name for this is synthetic telepathy; another is voice-to-skull (v2s) technology. I also discuss methods for sensing brainwaves and converting these to voice signals, i.e., brainwave-to-voice (b2v) devices.

Crimes Against Humanity

These pages contain documents, links, references, and commentary related to mind control. Mind control is the term in common usage to describe covert behavior modification techniques and the use of neuro-influencing technology. The main focus of these pages is mind control using electromagnetic and acoustic devices, though the use of drugs, hypnosis, and induced trauma also appears. Focusing too closely on one technique can obscure the fact that the methods may be used in concert with each other, and focusing too closely on the technology alone can obscure the tactics which employ the technology. The political aspect of mind control concerns its use in a "free" society: the testing of the technology on nonconsensual subjects, its use in political persuasion and in suppressing dissent, as well as how the very existence of the technology is covered up and concealed.
