Book excerpt: Winner of the Lysander Spooner Award for Advancing the Literature of Liberty As you walk down the street, a tiny microchip implanted in your tennis shoe tracks your every move; chips woven into your clothing transmit the value of your outfit to nearby retailers; and a thief scans the chips hidden inside your money to decide if you’re worth robbing. This isn’t science fiction; in a few short years, it could be a fact of life. Spychips takes readers into the frightening world of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). While manufacturers and the government want you to believe that they would never misuse the technology, the future looks like an Orwellian nightmare when you consider the possibilities of surveillance and tracking these chips embody. Combining in-depth research with firsthand reporting, Spychips reveals how RFID technology, if left unchecked, could soon destroy our privacy, radically alter the economy, and open the floodgates for civil liberty abuses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever feel like you're being watched? This eye-opening book shows how a new technology may soon track your every move . . . and pave the way for the fulfillment of end-time biblical prophecy. A revolutionary technology called RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) is poised to expose our habits, secrets, and slip-ups to money-hungry marketers, savvy criminals, and government snoops. One day soon, our shoes could keep track of our footsteps. Stores could ID us as we walk in the door. Hidden "tracking units" could log even our restroom visits. Global corporations and government agencies have already invested millions in a plan that uses tiny microchips to uniquely number and track everyday items. Parts of this Orwellian vision are uncannily similar to the prophesies of Revelation. Chipping inanimate objects is just the start-the endpoint is a form of RFID that can be injected into the flesh. This work-an updated version of Katherine Albrecht and Liz McIntyre's controversial and award-winning book Spychips-is a clarion call to Christians to take a stand against plans to monitor and control people through this unnerving new technology. Using public records, real-world examples, and biblical prophesies, Albrecht and McIntyre uncover the frightening story behind RFID and show us how to protect our privacy and civil liberties while there's still time.

Elliott’s father, Sir Claude Aurelius Elliott, Headmaster at Eton College, had powerful connections. When Elliott announced his desire to join the intelligence service, his father was able to arrange it for him. Elliott attended prep school at Durnford, where he endured horrific brutality, then to Eton and Cambridge. He neither worked hard nor excelled academically, but developed a close friendship with Basil Fisher whose death during the Battle of Britain had a devastating effect on him. In 1938, Elliott was invited to accompany Sir Nevile Bland, a senior diplomat, to The Hague, the seat of government in the Netherlands, to serve as his honorary attaché in the Foreign Office. This opportunity provided his first introduction into clandestine work, as well as exposure to Hitler. He left The Hague with the conviction that Hitler must be stopped and the best way to do this was to become a spy…

This book was released on 2021-06-05 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: * Our summary is short, simple and pragmatic. It allows you to have the essential ideas of a big book in less than 30 minutes. As you read this summary, you will learn that espionage is an art that is practiced in different ways depending on the place and time, even if there are undeniable constants. You will also learn that : the American authorities knew that the Japanese were preparing to attack Pearl Harbor; the U.S. government had also been warned of the imminence of Al Qaeda's attacks in time before September 11th ; intoxication operations in the field of espionage are not new; the assassination of Sarajevo in 1914 was only made possible by a prior espionage mission; in its early days, the Soviet Union relied heavily on espionage to ensure its survival; fidel Castro's regime owed its salvation in 1961 to Soviet espionage. Why do we spy? Essentially, to gain and retain power, as well as to win armed conflicts. If espionage has certain constants, invariable in time and place, this discipline is no stranger to change. The same is true of the techniques used, which differ from one time and place to another, but which, overall, are only marginally modified. Brian Stewart, a high-flying British spy who served for a long time in Asia, discusses all aspects of espionage in full knowledge of the facts, bringing us into a world from which laymen are mostly excluded. *Buy now the summary of this book for the modest price of a cup of coffee!

When an agent goes silent, there can be many benign reasons. But hard-nosed professionals believe that the search for excuses is largely wishful thinking. #2 In 1974, Ogorodnik was transferred back to Moscow and given a desk in the Ministry of Affairs that gave him access to a steady stream of top secret memos and planning documents. And just like that, the CIA’s high-priced investment turned prescient. #3 The spy, Marti Peterson, left her apartment on July 6, 1977, and headed to the drop. She was the first female case officer ever assigned to Moscow Station. She clutched a bag containing what looked like a lump of black asphalt, but was actually a secret compartment that contained messages and a new, improved miniature camera. #4 Peterson was tasked with delivering a package to Moscow, and she knew that the KGB routinely blanketed the city with its operatives. She went through the motions of shaking any tails, and then delivered the package.

This is an InstaRead Summary of George Washington's Secret Six: The Spy Ring That Saved the American Revolution by Brian Kilmeade and Don Yaeger. Below is a preview of the earlier sections of the summary: Preface The existence of the Culper Spy Ring was known in the 1920s, but no one knew who its leader was until Morton Pennypacker, a Long Island historian, was given papers that led to his identity. The spy ring was responsible for preventing Benedict Arnold from carrying out his treachery, as well as several other important events during the Revolutionary War. Culper Junior was the ring leader. In 1929, Pennypacker received a phone call that led him to some papers that had belonged to the Townsend family. The Townsends were a prominent family that had been in the United States since the 1600s. The papers were letters and account books from the Revolutionary War era. Perusing through the papers, Pennypacker found that Robert Townsend's handwriting was very similar to that in Culper Junior's letters. He sent the papers for analysis and found that Robert Townsend was Culper Junior. Now the only spy whose identity is not known is a woman who has been identified as 355. The spy ring had six members: Robert Townsend, Austin Roe, Caleb Brewster, Abraham Woodhull, James Rivington and Agent 355. The book describes the work of the Culper Spy Ring and how they helped the Continental Army bring down the British Military, which was the most powerful military force in the world at that time. Introduction In 1776, in Manhattan, Captain Nathan Hale was hung at the age of 21 for being a spy. This made the message clear to all colonists that if they spied they would die. Chapter 1 - Hold New York, Win The War Nathan Hale's execution was a low point for General George Washington, who had recently suffered the siege of New York City and Long Island by the British. Now, he had lost his spy as well. The Declaration of Independence had just been signed two months before, but the fledgling nation was quickly losing hope. New York was under American control until a few months prior to this low point of Washington's. The New York City Harbor was an important place for the Continental Army to occupy because if the Harbor could be held then the morale of the people would rise, and the army would have a good tactical vantage point for accessing the colonies' waterways. New York and Philadelphia were the most important colonies at that point since New York was a major port and hub and Philadelphia was where the Continental Congress held their meetings. Whoever held New York could control imports and exports, and it was a great place for moving troops up and down the coast...

I left seminary studies, but my mission experiences left me with a strong desire to someday work in Latin America. #2 The U. S. intelligence community does not typically collect information on commercial companies overseas, but many foreign intelligence services do target American companies. They are trying to steal technology by acquiring intellectual property. #3 The industry with the greatest number of ongoing security breaches is healthcare. The information stolen can be used for malicious purposes. Regardless of the collection goals, state actors are primarily motivated by extreme loyalty to their country. #4 The vast majority of security breaches are conducted by criminal groups. They will target entities through other tactics, such as ransomware, which will encrypt the victim’s data and hold it hostage in exchange for payment of the ransom.
