I have to create a short 4 page presentation titled Edward Snowden - Global surveillance disclosures. What should i write about to best explain Snowdens work and global surveillance disclosures to my class
TL:dr Richard Clarida is the #2 at the Federal Reserve (yep you guessed it, he would take over in the absence of JPOW) and he is dirty asf.
AND THE DIRT HAS COME OUT THE SAME MONTH AS HIS TERM ENDS.
As a tax paying citizen I would like to know exactly what were this dishonorable man's trades in February 2020 when he had early access to non-public information as COVID came a knockin'
Calling all CREDIT SUISSE DD Apes, let's dig deeper into this cretin.
January 7th, 2022
Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Richard Clarida disclosed additional sales of shares in broad-based stock funds, drawing fresh scrutiny of financial transactions he conducted at the onset of the coronavirus pandemic.
Mr. Clarida last year said three financial investment transactions that he executed on Feb. 27, 2020, were part of a preplanned portfolio rebalancing that occurred before he had any conversations about coming Fed policy actions.
Those transactions included the sale of between $1 million and $5 million in each of two bond funds and the purchase of between $1 million and $5 million in an exchange-traded fund that invests in stocks, according to public financial disclosure forms. The forms provide only ranges, rather than exact amounts, for the values of the transactions.
Amended disclosures filed last month show that three days earlier, on Feb. 24, 2020, Mr. Clarida had sold shares in three stock funds, including the same one he would purchase shares of on Feb. 27 for a similar amount. Stocks fell during those three days amid news reports about the novel coronavirus’s global spread.
The new disclosures, earlier reported by the New York Times, raise fresh questions about Mr. Clarida’s explanation of the moves, said some observers.
“This latest disclosure does call into question the initial explanation of Mr. Clarida’s trades as a ‘rebalancing’ from bonds to equities. We now know that he made a rapid move out of and then back into stocks,” said Norman Eisen, who served as the chief ethics lawyer in the Obama White House. “Frankly, I don’t understand how selling out of a fund, failing to disclose that, then buying the same fund again, all while making a profit and having sensitive Fed information, constitutes a ‘rebalancing.’”
“In reviewing his materials, Vice Chair Clarida identified inadvertent

And there is a hint that this is all happening at a time when we are close to making UFO technology a reality.
The article provides an in-depth look behind the current UN initiative, from ICER to San Marino.

Taking into account the recently published report by Congress, do you think that we are nearing the disclosure?
If yes, then what it will change in our society. I make money as a content writer, my customers love me, and I make good money. I plan to repay the debts that I have within one years, and then I plan to start developing a content writing studio so that I can manage other writers and take out the margin cut.
If aliens arrive before I'm rich, how this will affect my future. They have all kinds of tech, and I'm afraid that nobody will need a content writer anymore. This fear is very similar to the fear of the AI replacing me in my work. And AI is actually doing that, gradually.
Protestors had their cell phones tracked by NYPD via technologies like Crossbow/Stingray and other dirtboxes such as described here: https://theintercept.com/2020/07/31/protests-surveillance-stingrays-dirtboxes-phone-tracking/
The unreal lack of oversight of the NYPD is something the city has been trying to correct since the days of Mayor Dinkins… https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/13/opinion/nypd-reform-nyc.html
Advanced surveillance tech used daily that we know about includes facial recognition, shot spotter, Crossbow, etc. There is of course so much more that we don’t know about due to the NYPD's systemic lack of transparency. The New York City Council voted in favor of requiring the NYPD to disclose use of their technology 44-6 in mid-June. We have waited long enough. Message Mayor DeBlasio and ask him to sign the POST Act into law today: https://www1.nyc.gov/office-of-the-mayor/mayor-contact.page
Police unions are demanding a carve out in the POST Act so they can hide what undercover officers are up to- the unions think that the public should continue to have no knowledge regarding technology that undercover officers use daily. Police unions think that this base level of disclosure would make it harder to be an undercover officer. This is not a bad thing, there must be disclosure in order for us to begin to reshape the systemic racism present throughout the NYPD. Undercover investigations, like all NYPD activity, continue to disproportionately wrong people of color under the status quo. How can we expect to hold these undercover operations accountable for the changes we demand if they are able to shield themselves completely from public oversight?
We cannot accept the proposed carve out, it would give the NYPD the ability to declare anything they wish to keep secret to be part of “undercover” operation.
The NYPD disbanded a team of 600 plainclothes officers because the public was starting to get the slightest whiff of what they were up to, the top brass must be shaking in their boots imagining what the public would think if we could smell what their undercover operations were cooking...
After reading several articles including one's like this Irreversible warming tipping point, and with talk of disclosure that may be happening relatively soon it got me thinking.
If we have truly gone beyond the point of being able to reverse the damage we have only helped caused as a species and continue to do so, the only hope that I could possibly see is outside intervention. We may have forced disclosure due to severe negligence of our planet, and without the intervention and aid of a more technologically advanced civilization on a global scale, we will most likely go extinct in a few hundred years. Possibly this project has been in the works for quite some time, as our oceans have been a hot spot for UFO's, but phase two would require a more visible intervention.
If I were to disclose such an idea to the world, painting the idea in the most positive light possible would be a logical course of action. That they are here to help reverse the catastrophic damage that we have caused to our planet, rather than simply awknowledge their existence alone. What do you all think on the matter?
