Fourth Amendment Has been Suspended

The federal government is launching an expansive program dubbed "Perfect Citizen" to detect cyber assaults on private companies and government agencies running such critical infrastructure as the electricity grid and nuclear-power plants, according to people familiar with the program.The surveillance by the National Security Agency, the government's chief eavesdropping agency, would rely on a set of sensors deployed in computer networks for critical infrastructure that would be triggered by unusual activity suggesting an impending cyber attack, though it wouldn't persistently monitor the whole system, these people said.

Defense contractor Raytheon Corp. recently won a classified contract for the initial phase of the surveillance effort valued at up to $100 million, said a person familiar with the project.

An NSA spokeswoman said the agency had no information to provide on the program. A Raytheon spokesman declined to comment.

Some industry and government officials familiar with the program see Perfect Citizen as an intrusion by the NSA into domestic affairs, while others say it is an important program to combat an emerging security threat that only the NSA is equipped to provide.

"The overall purpose of the [program] is our Government...feel[s] that they need to insure the Public Sector is doing all they can to secure Infrastructure critical to our National Security," said one internal Raytheon email, the text of which was seen by The Wall Street Journal. "Perfect Citizen is Big Brother."

Naturally, the common people don't want war, but they can always be brought to the bidding of their leaders, tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and endangering their country. Works the same in every country. ~Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials

@Mrcharliebobo No we wouldn't. We'd have no police, firefighters, law enforcement, newspapers, media, transportation, cars, or anything that is essential to daily life.

Once they sufficiently trash the consitution, and get enough sheeple thinking the way they like, they will just replace it altogether. Then we will have the North American Union. Which is just another major step toward 1 world government. Don't believe it? Look up the Amero, it will replace the dollar. European Union, African Union, Asian Union, soon their will be only a few super-states, then they join them all together, with the IMF as the central bank. It's all happening according to plan.
