…how long it will take for the VIPs to realize they are under the heaviest surveillance, and that in a surveillance state they can be picked off at the whim of whoever is in power the moment they become his or her political rivals? ;]
It wouldn't be necessary to copy the whole Ben Gurion program. Just train the existing profiling staff in the same way. They already had plenty of those and could easily staff up. They also have thousands times as many veterans available.
No. Always take information and sue in such cases.
Violation of a civil right, even though protected in the Constitution, does not reliably comprise a misdemeanor or a felony; therefore a citizen's arrest is not applicable under federal or California laws.
Look at it this way: Police don't arrest people when they should more properly be sued, and they always give that advice when civil complaints are brought to them; because even they could be charged with false arrest in the absence of an obvious felony or misdemeanor.
Note that they didn't even consider the need for a conviction before adding legally-innocent folks to a List of Future Harassment.
Kind of reminds one of copyright trolls who insist an accusation is enough to disconnect your internet, doesn't it? ;]
In Canada, searches are expressly forbidden without probable cause. All security guards are trained and licensed; and regulated to never demand searches at random or by suspicion alone.
Naturally, untrained and unlicensed persons are not permitted to do searches at all. They are required to call the police for that, even if they successfully and legally made a citizen's arrest.
Don't forget that as long as they don't actively break any rules they can let him push them into hundreds of billable hours on this suit without much risk of being sanctioned or censured by the court. ;]
Don't forget that all these millions of transceivers, both on the ground and in orbit, are not limited to one transmission or connection at a time. Each one is a massive leap ahead of dishes. Also don't forget that propagation delays in space and air are effectively zero compared to the 33% loss in fiber.
Basic physics says that spreading a workload a thousandfold results in a thousandfold increase in capacity, and that multiplying a thousandfold increase in physical capacity along with another thousandfold increase in bandwidth capacity will result in something unrecognizable to those accustomed to the limitations of older technology; as you have volunteered to amply demonstrate. ;]
I didn't say that this thing would render terrestrial internet obsolete or unprofitable; but what I did say is that it will be competitive as a mainstream option for everyone. This new form of competition could even motivate incumbents to shape up and compete.
This is not marketing hyperbole. It is simply recognizing available facts. ;]
