     Tuesday, 22 November 2017, LONDON / Updates 14 October 2017, SILICON VALLEY / SAN ANTONIO / 3 October 2017, WASHINGTON, D.C. - Alphabet Inc.'s Google long has collaborated including in publicly but not limited to joint venture(s) with the CIA "private" company In-Q-Tel as well as providing the CIA (like other "Intelligence Community" entities) through "interfaces" all Google user traffic and content (as do other social media platforms) without the State having to go through the tedious formalities of actually requesting it.
       This is roughly similar to the State avoiding Fourth Amendment search and seizure constraints by having a private entity such as, say, Federal Express, "accidentally" rip open suspect packages for contraband and then hand it over to the DEA (whose acting Administrator incidentally just resigned in protest against President Trump including Trump's encouragement of police brutality coupled with AG Sessions vigorous idiotic universally opposed attempts at regression to the long-proven catastrophic "War On Drugs") thus efficiently streamlining the process of conducting searches and seizures without being inconvenienced by the encumbrances of the United States Constitution. Such matters in fact may be of particular interest to some engaged in U.S. cocaine trafficking as relevant authorities just have notified the public that at least some U.S. postal service employees no longer will be available to accept bribes for safe passage of cocaine shipments through the U.S. Postal Service.
       In any case in the strictly lay opinion of the Ninth Amendment the CIA's in-house and Department of Justice attorneys including former Cheney favorite evil Neil "Golly Gitmo" Gorsuch surprisingly were not at least disbarred and forever banned from federal service for advising the CIA that torture was not torture under U.S. and international law as well as treaties and conventions exposing the Bush/Cheney administration including its CIA officials and others to this day to lifelong prosecution for war crimes and crimes against humanity should they venture into the wrong countries.
       Said DOJ attorneys now seemingly having given up enforcing U.S. civil rights, antitrust and other cumbersome laws unlike the European Union here under the leadership of Return to the Dark Ages champion Republican Senate hero security clearance liar serial perjurer racist "disgrace" Attorney General Jefferson Beauregard "Jefe" Sessions III in his single-minded fevered and demented quest encouraging police brutality in bringing back like zombies thought dead long-proven failures such as the "War On Drugs" with interminable incarceration to benefit his own and his pals private prison investments and the dismal failure "D.A.R.E."
       D.A.R.E. is a most telling example having years ago been shown actually to have increased drug use in the young. Sessions has joined our Russisa-elected president in encouraging a militarized police state assault on the U.S. population which Sessions persists in claiming is endangered by an imaginary increasing violent crime rate while actually violent crime has been plummeting for decades should not be relied upon by the State for legal advice as it remains the Ninth Amendment's lay opinion that any CIA domestic U.S. activity is unauthorized and unlawful on its face while conversely Alphabet, Inc. Google has so effectively entangled itself with State actors that it is only fair that acting like one that it be treated like one and subject to the same constitutional constraints.
       Those wishing to pursue remedies against Google for unlawful activities such as illegal searches and seizures, censorship, any other civil rights violations as well as for monopolistic market practices, censorship, invasion of privacy and so on might wish to consult with the ACLU or the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) or other such entities should those organizations be in agreement with the above or other pertinent theories or through private counsel where laws which go unenforced by the State still may have private party enforcement provisions such as for antitrust, invasion of privacy, gang stalking, racketeering and so on.
       However, as an example of Google's pervasive efforts to influence and/or co-opt those most involved with significant public policy issues affecting Google a New York Times op-ed piece linked to below reveals that Google actually now has become a significant funder and thus potential co-opter of EFF an organization one normally would expect to most vigorously represent the public interest in matters involving Google's market dominance and other matters concerning especially the internet. Vigilance in protecting consumer interests and online rights is most important including because now the Republican Trump administration has taken majority control of the FCC five person board so significant in making decisions regarding profound internet issues affecting the public such as preserving equal internet access in all regards including under the doctrine of "net neutrality" which had been protected under the Obama administration FCC with the finding that internet access could be regulated as a "public good". The new Trump GOP FCC Chair Ajit Pai's appropriately misnomered "Restoring Internet Freedom" proposal to reverse Obama-era net neutrality received an overwhelming 22+ million comments by the Wednesday 30 August 2017 close of the comment period.
       Interested readers below will find some sources that may be in agreement that Alphabet Inc. Google's time has come to face the consequences of its global corrupt monopolistic malfeasance not the least of which being that it should be broken up mercilessly this once arguably long ago beneficent company rumored born of good intentions at MIT to develop a better search engine with site rankings based on legitimate links to Alphabet Inc. Google today being the harbinger of an Orwellian dystopia whose founding motto "Don't Be Evil" has metastasized into the embracing of Lord Acton's admonition morphing "Power Corrupts, Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely" into its creed and guiding light, or rather darkness.
       The European Union (EU) has been much more aggressive than the U.S. in pursuing American-born technology companies' privacy and other violations one most recent major action being the assessment of a record $2.7 billion antitrust fine against Google reported in the CNBC link below.
       As most (especially Russians apparently) agree nothing is free including from Google or any social media site which in return for what they provide they each time in turn take and keep one's every word, phrase, sentence, and/or paragraph, one's every thought of the moment now even absolutely unethically also undertaking without notice or knowing permission scientific experimentation on users' emotions and so on much like Zuckerboy with Facebook or, surprise, the CIA had with MK-ULTRA (ahem, attempted) mind control or of course the OSS/CIA good old pal Josef Mengele unmentionable psychotically sadistic "experimentation" (he's our boy, just fly him to South America).
       Therefore if convinced Google is not altogether beneficent why not take a moment each time one does a search or whatever to just also entirely randomly quickly search several other bizarre words or inane terms in which one has absolutely no interest at all. As the acting head of DARPA testified before its oversight Senate subcommittee as to artificial intelligence one major challenge DARPA had identified was "garbage in, garbage out" which meant DARPA had to be quite careful as to what input the A.I. was exposed as the wrong input could result in some very unpredictable consequences of significant concern.
       YouTube effective censorship of "controversial" material "not in violation of our policies" has arrived heralded within an apparent non-controversial "Fight Terror" posting . Official YouTube Blog August 1, 2017 post reports YouTube in past month used "machine learning" (primitive A.I. precursor) for 75% of removals of "terror content" videos with no human flagging. However YouTube uses the same post to slip into announcing it now also is taking steps to effectively censor video content by isolating it as "limited" separated by an interstitial, not recommending it, not recording likes, not allowing comments and ending monetizing of creator content of "controversial" material admittedly "not in violation of our policies" but presumably to kill off content unwanted or inconvenient to Google by means still evolving but given the entirety of the body of the post to include just by "machine learning" rather than just human censors either of which in any case is absolutely objectionable effective censorship of free speech on a grossly monopolistic platform.
     Alphabet, Inc. Google more recently has been suspected of practicing further unlawful monopoly censorship violating free speech and association rights without limitation by changing and/or eliminating delivery to users of search results yielding links to more fringe, alternative and/or progressive content in its "Project Owl" claimed fight against "Fake News" also used as a pretext for admittedly censoring "offensive (to Google)" content as set out for interested readers in the uppermost New York Times 26 September 2017 "Search Bias Claims" article linked to below.

Trump Freefall 35% Iowa Approve Just 34% To Vote GOP For 2018 Congress Blue Tide Rolling: GOP Deathbed Trump Lies, Sexism, Racism, Press Attacks, Judiciary Bias, Complicit Congress Treachery, Wealth Inequality, Police Military State, Voter Suppression, Civil Rights Reversals, Putin Duerte Trump Despot Pals, Human Rights Abuses, Anti-UN, Anti-Diplomacy, America 1st Earth Last U.S. Becomes Russia If Trump Allowed "Time To Pick A Side" Kasparov Warns Soul Of Malice Trump Lays Waste U.S. Democracy Complicit GOP Rots Away Trump Denies U.S. Intel Russia Meddled Nor Assisted Trump Win 2016 Election Grave Russia National Security Threat To U.S. Trump Answers To Putin Alone

UPDATED to 2 January 2018

       Friday, 15 December 2017, WASHINGTON, D.C. - The first Washington Post article linked to below cites more than fifty (50) knowledgeable inside sources supporting the mind-boggling comprehensive detailed revelation that President Trump even given irrefutable ever-growing direct evidence from several Trump-Russia investigations and a recent string of arrests, indictments and plea deals privately right up to the present in fact never has convincingly acknowledged nor even can tolerate without lapsing apoplectic any direct reference to the U.S. intelligence community's earlier warning nor later unanimous public assessment with high confidence a year ago that Russia meddled in the United States 2016 presidential election.
       Mr. Trump unless by now skilfully diverted by staff onto another subject or carefully eased by necessity into that of Russian interference privately claims despite that unwavering assessment of the vast U.S. intelligence community dedicated to serving the nation ultimately under Trump's ostensible leadership that Trump nevertheless rather chooses to believe KGB Putin's direct face-to-face totally unsubstantiated untruthful denials to Trump that Russia never perpetrated nor continues to nor would in the future perpetrate any such devastatingly effectively low budget high yield attacks on the foundations of U.S. constitutional democracy and the cohesion of the American people within the established norms of its society domestically and internationally under an at least arguably even if now under the GOP becoming ever less so functional democratic electoral system given the alternatives (such as Putin's).
       As recognized by virtually all cognizant human beings other than allegedly Trump conflating deeply destructive personal (in this case well-founded) insecurities regarding the legitimacy of his election rooted in infantile egoism with the very real need in his position as president to insure the national security KGB Putin's initial effort was to destabilize and weaken U.S.constitutional democracy and provoke widespread discord and division among all Americans as later evolved into the remarkably coordinated use especially of FSB/GRU suspiciously well-targeted attacks given their certain independent inability accurately to analyze on their own nor act independently on detailed U.S. "psychographics" (as could, for example, Cambridge Analytica).
       Without inside help it is apparent the Kremlin's Soviet-style propaganda campaign could be of limited success through the use of unguided social media manipulation without strategic Wikileaks curated disclosure of stolen DNC and Podesta emails for maximum impact. Of course Trump's biggest malignant narcissistic roadblock then ultimately emanates from acknowledging to himself or others that Putin's initial scheme had come to include efforts to damage the Clinton campaign but along the way morphed into an all-out effort through the Kremlin under Putin's orders largely in hopes of ending hated sanctions for Russia's flagrant aggressions to assist and very likely be responsible for Trump's actually quite weak U.S. election victory in which Trump actually lost the overall national vote count by a majority of more than three million votes against him.
       Some of the multitude of dangerous national security problems that grow from Trump's failure privately to this day to acknowledge the fact and nature of Russian meddling in the U.S. election and otherwise including now and in the future are detailed below ranging from obvious impediments to imparting necessary information about Russia as a hostile nation and related matters to the President in a straightforward manner in settings from the National Security Council to the delicate delivery of PDB's which need include vital information but in a way which must be carefully spoon-fed and couched to avoid a presidential blow-up.
       Most disturbing is the fact that despite some exceptions such as FBI Director Wray's congressional testimony aside (as opposed to AG Sessions) all other evidence is that the Trump administration is failing to implement any coordinated effective preventive response among all available U.S. agencies to combat Russian past, present and future U.S. election interference exclusively because President Trump the Commander-In-Chief privately still refuses even to acknowledge that Russian U.S. election meddling ever has been and remains an ongoing existing severe threat to U.S. democracy including upcoming elections nor of course that it ever was intended by the Russians to help Trump be elected president despite overwhelming evidence and uniform informed U.S. intelligence assessments to the contrary.
       Whether or not Trump really believes his own discounting of Russian interference in U.S. most sacrosanct affairs of course technically remains an open question. However in reality he almost certainly is being characteristically untruthful as to what he believes regardless of what further facts are uncovered regarding the existence of any Trump-Russia conspiracy. All evidence to date without exception strongly supports that although further facts as to its actual existence may need to be developed that the intent and attempt which is all that matters as to guilt certainly has been there among a growing multitude of Trump campaign, transition and serving U.S. Trump administration officials which it strains credulity to believe would stop short of including the ever-controlling Trump.
       Meanwhile every day Trump occupies the office of the President Americans (namely complicit totally self-centered Republican politicians and Trump's dwindling base of duped followers) have been allowing Trump to take one more dangerously familiar step after another warns activist and former world chess champion Gary Kasparov turning the United States into the Russia whose democracy Putin stole nearing two decades ago (along with about $2 billion of the Russian people's money).
       Kasparov from direct experience warns Americans in no uncertain terms that the "[t]ime to pick a side" is upon Americans before they find themselves like the Russian people today that no longer have a viable path to take back their legitimate power and inalienable human rights through the strangled political system of a destroyed democracy twisted into a deeply ensconced endemically corrupt autocratic oligarchical kleptocracy but nearly certainly only through means that when the inevitable hour of upheaval arrives promises to be a monstrously deadly mess indeed for all involved from the overwhelming mobs overflowing from the streets flooding through the gates right into the estates of the fleeing oligarchs and invading the halls of power inside the Kremlin now devolved into little more than a modern day glorified KGB/GRU headquarters run by a would be world-class criminal thug who is starting to sound too awfully sickeningly familiar back home in the States.
       UPDATE to 31 December 2017 Readers interested in the danger to federal law enforcement by attacks against the F.B.I. and Special Counsel Mueller with increasing intensity as the Trump-Russia investigation draws in ever closer to the top of the Trump Administration posed by the president and his media and congressional allies seemingly more concerned with the survival of their party than their country can go to the first link below which sets out the Washington Post editorial board's concerns about this vendetta against law enforcement which has the potential to cause profound damage to those institutions and in turn the future of the United States constitutional democracy as we have known it for almost two and one half centuries. Readers interested in a concise well-articulated overview warning of the Trump administration's urgently dangerous daily further destruction of long-established norms of the Nation's constitutional democracy aided and abetted by a sickly complicit GOP divorced from its legitimate conservative past now lying in ruins can go to the second link below.

       Those wishing to pursue remedies against Google for unlawful activities such as illegal searches and seizures, censorship, any other civil rights violations as well as for monopolistic market practices, censorship, invasion of privacy and so on might wish to consult with the ACLU or the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) or other such entities should those organizations be in agreement with the above or other pertinent theories or through private counsel where laws which go unenforced by the State still may have private party enforcement provisions such as for antitrust, invasion of privacy, gang stalking, racketeering and so on.
       However, as an example of Google's pervasive efforts to influence and/or co-opt those most involved with significant public policy issues affecting Google a New York Times op-ed piece linked to below reveals that Google actually now has become a significant funder and thus potential co-opter of EFF an organization one normally would expect to most vigorously represent the public interest in matters involving Google's market dominance and other matters concerning especially the internet. Vigilance in protecting consumer interests and online rights is most important including because now the Republican Trump administration has taken majority control of the FCC five person board so significant in making decisions regarding profound internet issues affecting the public such as preserving equal internet access in all regards including under the doctrine of "net neutrality" which had been protected under the Obama administration FCC with the finding that internet access could be regulated as a "public good". The new Trump GOP FCC Chair Ajit Pai's appropriately misnomered "Restoring Internet Freedom" proposal to reverse Obama-era net neutrality received an overwhelming 22+ million comments by the Wednesday 30 August 2017 close of the comment period.
       Interested readers below will find some sources that may be in agreement that Alphabet Inc. Google's time has come to face the consequences of its global corrupt monopolistic malfeasance not the least of which being that it should be broken up mercilessly this once arguably long ago beneficent company rumored born of good intentions at MIT to develop a better search engine with site rankings based on legitimate links to Alphabet Inc. Google today being the harbinger of an Orwellian dystopia whose founding motto "Don't Be Evil" has metastasized into the embracing of Lord Acton's admonition morphing "Power Corrupts, Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely" into its creed and guiding light, or rather darkness. The European Union (EU) has been much more aggressive than the U.S. in pursuing American-born technology companies' privacy and other violations the most recent major action being the assessment of a record $2.7 billion antitrust fine against Google reported in the CNBC link below.
       As most (especially Russians apparently) agree nothing is free including from Google or any social media site which in return for what they provide they each time in turn take and keep one's every word, phrase, sentence, and/or paragraph, one's every thought of the moment now even absolutely unethically also undertaking without notice or knowing permission scientific experimentation on users' emotions and so on much like Zuckerboy with Facebook or, surprise, the CIA had with MK-ULTRA (ahem, attempted) mind control or of course the OSS/CIA good old pal Josef Mengele unmentionable psychotically sadistic "experimentation" (he's our boy, just fly him to South America).
       Therefore if convinced Google is not altogether beneficent why not take a moment each time one does a search or whatever to just also entirely randomly quickly search several other bizarre words or inane terms in which one has absolutely no interest at all. As the acting head of DARPA testified before its oversight Senate subcommittee as to artificial intelligence one major challenge DARPA had identified was "garbage in, garbage out" which meant DARPA had to be quite careful as to what input the A.I. was exposed as the wrong input could result in some very unpredictable consequences of significant concern.
       YouTube effective censorship of "controversial" material "not in violation of our policies" has arrived heralded within an apparent non-controversial "Fight Terror" posting . Official YouTube Blog August 1, 2017 post reports YouTube in past month used "machine learning" (primitive A.I. precursor) for 75% of removals of "terror content" videos with no human flagging. However YouTube uses the same post to slip into announcing it now also is taking steps to effectively censor video content by isolating it as "limited" separated by an interstitial, not recommending it, not recording likes, not allowing comments and ending monetizing of creator content of "controversial" material admittedly "not in violation of our policies" but presumably to kill off content unwanted or inconvenient to Google by means still evolving but given the entirety of the body of the post to include just by "machine learning" rather than just human censors either of which in any case is absolutely objectionable effective censorship of free speech on a grossly monopolistic platform.
     Alphabet, Inc. Google more recently has been suspected of practicing further unlawful monopoly censorship violating free speech and association rights without limitation by changing and/or eliminating delivery to users of search results yielding links to more fringe, alternative and/or progressive content in its "Project Owl" claimed fight against "Fake News" also used as a pretext for admittedly censoring "offensive (to Google)" content as set out for interested readers in the uppermost New York Times 26 September 2017 "Search Bias Claims" article linked to below.

Vote Recount President Battleground States, Security Audits, Congressional Inquiries Urges Growing Chorus Of Nonpartisan Academics And Activists In 2016 Trump "Election" Over Clinton Turned On Only 55,000 Suspect Votes In Michigan, Pennsylvania And Wisconsin Irregularities Raised With DOJ While Director Of National Intelligence Declines To Confirm Security Of Vote Refers Press To Department Of Homeland Security Which Fails To Give Response UPDATE: NY Times: "Administration Statement" Defends "Integrity" Of Vote

     Wednesday, 23 November 2016, WASHINGTON, D.C. - A growing chorus of nonpartisan academics as well as activists reportedly have voiced strong concerns about alleged statistical irregularities in voting results in key battleground states Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin where a mere shift in 55,000 votes total would give the 2016 U.S. Presidential victory to Hillary Clinton making her the 45th President of the United States. Another group of analysts led by the Voting Rights Institute's founder John Bonifaz and Professor Alex Halderman, the director of the University of Michigan's center for computer security and society also are calling for a review of the vote.
     Meanwhile The Washington Post dismissively reports that misinformation posted by others on social media urges recipients to deluge the Department of Justice (DOJ) with requests for an investigation of voting irregularities in the alleged Trump victory apparently based on what that publication emphasizes is a misconception that DOJ would initiate any investigation based on the volume of public outcry. The Post refers to a DOJ spokesman who unsurprisingly states (untruthfully) that DOJ operates strictly on the facts, evidence and federal statutes (although anyone paying attention especially now knows that DOJ acts based on the politics of those in charge and routinely among other things ignores laws and tailors tortured bogus legal opinions as ordered) although the Post further does note that DOJ would still initiate an investigation of this election based on evidence of election or voter fraud,  intimidation, discriminatory election practices or other violations of federal law.
     Reportedly presumably based on earlier United States unprecedented government statements including by Vice-President Joe Biden of unspecified coming U.S. retaliation apparently related to extremely rare pre-election public predictions by two U.S. intelligence agencies, the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), although curiously not joined by Republican operative James Comey's rogue Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), based on their "confidence" that the Russian government directed hacking largely perpetrated specifically at the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton's campaign in particular as well as raising the possible but unlikely specter of direct election interference based on "scanning and probing" of some states' "election-related systems" traced mostly to servers of a Russian company (all of which "President-elect" Trump currently -- unless he changed his mind -- claims entirely to dismiss despite receiving most highly classified national security briefing on this matter) the press yesterday requested assurance that the Director of National Intelligence was confident that the actual election indeed had been secure.
     The DNI spokesman somewhat curiously declined to provide such an assurance on the security of the election on the seemingly specious grounds that "colleagues at the DHS" (which actually is one of the 16 national intelligence and security agencies under the DNI) were "best positioned to address this." The DHS however apparently was not aware that it was so positioned because when then dutifully approached the spokesman for the "colleague" DHS which was the only other intelligence agency to have given public notice of the Russian cyber election meddling somewhat oddly gave the press and therefore the public no response at all to a request for comment. The press was not then referred to any other agency at all presumably ending the U.S. intelligence agency wild goose chase at least for the day. Nor apparently did any unnamed source surface.
     Readers interested in more information regarding the above can go to the links below. The first link below is to an article from The Guardian which details growing concerns about the presidential election results from various quarters and actions being planned and/or taken by those concerned. The second link below is to a Washington Post article which on its face confirms that it is indeed the mere 55,000 votes described above on which the Trump "victory" depends which votes if shifted to Hillary Clinton would make her the President-elect. The Washington Post notably haughty article however is more focused on and preoccupied with sleuthing the source(s) of the social media pathways claimed to be misleading with the article effectively dissuading the general public which is unlikely to have hard evidence from raising any unsubstantiated outcry to DOJ. In furtherance of this objective it paternally even notes that it is not providing the People for unstated reasons with certain of the alleged DOJ phone number(s) to call circulating in social media.
     The editorial board of the Ninth Amendment observes as to the latter position that is not necessarily in concert with the masses nor the core values of the United States Constitution encompassing in particular unequivocally the unfettered right of the People to petition the State for a redress of grievances without regard to what branch or department the People may choose to petition and on what grounds. Furthermore as a practical matter should such petitioning reach an overwhelming crescendo which also may be augmented by the related fundamental core constitutional right of the People peaceably to assemble in as large a number as they may choose to participate in person in the petitioning of the State when that assembly has amassed to the point of occupying a large area of the People's capital we would suggest that it shall once again become apparent to any organ of the State that the will of a sea of the People outside its windows or walls as the case may be shall not and will not be ignored even if strictly speaking the People have not got exactly the "right department" nor recently reviewed the procedures in the most recently amended pertinent parts of the Code of Federal Regulations.
     Given the grave domestic damage and needless international bloodshed and unconstitutional warfare and other horrific disasters of the illegitimate administration which flowed from the 2000 non-election in the Bush/Cheney coup d'etat made a fait accompli by a partisan Supreme Court the majority of whose members have shown themselves to be either mentally incompetent, deranged, brain dead, suffering from Alzheimer's, demented, living on another planet, senile and/or all of the preceding, one might expect that should something significant come of the matter set forth in this post that the People will not again tolerate such a blatantly partisan inappropriate illegitimate unconstitutional interference with the People's fundamental right to choose the President of the United States.

     UPDATES: A more recent BBC article added as a third link below for interested readers further details that groups mentioned above including data analysts joined by some lawyers find the 55,000 Trump battleground state votes suspect because Trump inexplicably performed better and Clinton worse in those locations with electronic voting machines potentially vulnerable to hacking in contrast to those with paper ballots and optical scanners definitely not subject to hacking. As vote counting still continues Clinton's popular vote lead over Trump has been steadily increasing now surpassing two million votes. For interested readers further fourth and fifth links have been added below to two articles on this matter most recently now appearing in The New York Times the latter originating from the Associated Press.

     UPDATES: The Times more recently reports that faced with the growing likelihood that all three battleground state votes will be audited and/or recounted that (unidentified without explanation) "officials" in the "administration" defend the "integrity" of the vote. The Times curiously provided no information at all as to who or where those "officials" might be or as to why they are not identified. The Times further summarily refers to the Department of Homeland Security and "other intelligence officials" pre-election predictions discounting the possibility of Russian election hacking and essentially ignores that some other irregularity might turn up in recounts and/or audits even if the earlier predictions by the DHS and DNI prove correct. Interested readers can go to this more recent article added as a sixth link below. The Times the following day did then release a "U.S. Statement on Reliability of Election Results" it had been given by a "senior administration official" on the unexplained condition of anonymity which apparently was the source for the above-referenced article but not mentioned nor provided to the public until added by a link the following day by the Times. Interested readers can read the statement at the added seventh link below.
     The Times further also reported that unsurprisingly the Hillary Clinton campaign had joined the Jill Stein initiated vote recount in Wisconsin to the extent of paying lawyers to participate in oversight and would do the same if Ms. Stein's Green Party further initiated recounts in Pennsylvania and Michigan, which has not yet completed its initial vote count. The Green Party's success in collecting what is expected to be seven million dollars in donations in a mere few days to fund recounts assuredly was made possible not mostly by Green Party supporters but by those holding out hope for a Clinton victory. Readers interested in more information on the Clinton campaign's "change of heart" to participate can go to the added eighth link below.
     The recount saga continues as more recently Trump supporters have joined the fray by mounting various challenges seeking now to stop the three state vote recounts in their tracks seemingly on the basis of whatever arguments they find most expedient in each of the different state venues and depending on what available procedures may be feasible in each state. Their motivation is unclear and their arguments as to the futility of recounts seemingly at odds with Mr. Trump's oft-repeated assertions of a "rigged election" and his more recent tweet(s) since apparently winning the election by electoral votes nevertheless claiming (without evidence) that he actually won the popular vote as well if one deducts the "millions" of fraudulent votes for Hillary Clinton who according to those who have been actually counting the votes now leads Trump by more than 2.5 million votes.
     So far as to the challenges the Trump supporters have mounted seeking to halt the three state vote recounts the different state election officials involved have all taken positions strictly without exception along partisan lines. Readers interested in more information can go to the added ninth link below. On Saturday, 3 December 2016, Jill Stein dropped a pending bid for a Pennsylvania statewide vote recount after Pennsylvania courts imposed a $1 million bond requirement to start a statewide recount which she criticized including on the grounds that petitioners were "citizens of ordinary means."
     Dr. Stein nevertheless as of Saturday evening had collected $6.9 million in donations to fund recount bids with further funds still being sought. A campaign for a much more limited recount of Pennsylvania votes in Philadelphia and other targeted areas rather than statewide is going forward. Meanwhile calling the bond requirement evidence of "antiquated" state law Jill Stein seemed to leave open the possibility of further plans for challenging the Pennsylvania vote stating that " [w]e will pursue every available remedy to ensure Pennsylvanians can trust what happened in this election." She also promised a forthcoming "major announcement" on this coming Monday morniing. Readers interested in more information can go to the tenth link below.

Childrens' Tech Screentime Curtailed By Steve Jobs And Many "High-Tech" Executive Parents Who Allow Very Limited Or None At All But For Homework With No Smartphones Until Age 14 Nor Data Plans Until Age 16 And In Any Case "Never" In The Bedroom

       Friday, 12 September 2014, NEW YORK, NEW YORK - The Ninth Amendment Editorial Board suggests that parents of minor children may be well advised to follow the lead of some of those who should know best including former Apple Computer chief Steve Jobs and many other current top executives of major internet players and their spouses about both educational pitfalls and more immediate real-world dangers that high-tech devices and internet "services" may bring often by stealth into their homes.
       Perhaps surprisingly most of those interviewed in the New York Times article linked below rather than having homes stuffed with iPads and the like instead have recounted rigorous household rules greatly limiting their youths' exposure to "reading" materials other than good old-fashioned paper-bound books, pens and paper particularly when it comes to anything other than legitimately creative endeavors and the necessity for computers in completing homework accompanied by family dinner conversations about current school learning and other areas of knowledge at tables with nary a tech device including screen to be found.
       Most interestingly many parents in top positions at some of the largest and biggest players in tech internet and other such companies completely ban devices and their use that other parents presumably less knowledgeable about the risks they entail for their children freely make available or even encourage as if it were a matter of right of passage to full-blown childhood. Specifically mentioned is the fact that many of these "high-tech" parents will not even allow the use of messaging devices and tech tools which keep a permanent record of personal communications which one day may come back to haunt their children from a time before they knew better than to make them.
        So sorry to Facebook's Zuckerboy, Myspace. Google+, Twitter (whose own top executives vigorously enforce such restrictive rules with their own children), Yahoo, LinkedIn and the hundreds of other such deceptively designated "social media" and e-mail, instant messenger, cellular call and text service privacy invaders and all manner of other commercial exploiters of personal information and communications for their own monetary gain.
       Regardless of whether or not they expressly "knowingly" cooperate their consistently repeated experience would alert anyone but a complete brain-dead idiot that willingly or not they are acting either constructively voluntarily in league with or as total imbecilic tools of their de facto U.S. "national security" partners who repeatedly and incessantly in wholesale criminal violation of privacy laws and other U.S. Constitutional rights and their penumbras in furtherance of their consistently misguided largely completely ineffective in the absence of actual painstaking police work criminal schemes which they bottom line justify by strong-arming what any self-respecting attorney knows or should know are completely convoluted self-serving BS made-to-order contrived bogus "legal" opinions ultimately based on nothing but the ridiculously farcical foundation that the criminal transgressions they endorse in clear violation of the U.S. Constitutional rights they are sworn to uphold can ever be more "compelling" under the U.S. Constitution than the rule of law itself.
       Many high-tech executives if they allow their children any such constantly illegally monitored activities at all allowed only specifically named services such as "Snapchat" which allegedly immediately dispose permanently of any such personal messages as soon as they are sent although based on the Ninth Amendment's experience with the U.S. Government's Executive Branch "national security underworld" we would have to find in this day and age any such assurance to be most highly suspect at best. Something that need be kept private and even for a moment is absorbed into a high-tech device even unconnected to a phone line, the internet or anything else to our understanding must immediately by sledgehammered to bits the size of pebbles burned in a barrel of jet fuel thrown with no outside observation whatsoever into the back of a dumpster on a dark Bedford-Stuyvesant sidestreet immediately emptied into the trash compactor in the back of an armored car converted into a dump truck taken directly to a mob-owned car-crusher after being liberally doused in liquid hazardous radioactive medical waste before being buried under hundreds of tons of similar debris piled on a half-mile long barge bound directly to China where it is permanently disposed of under a concrete highway along with the remains of the Twin Towers in an active volcanic crater.
       For similar reasons if one did not heed the example of these high-tech executives' universal warning to keep all such "high-tech" devices out of one's children's bedrooms we certainly would suggest keeping any computer camera or microphone even supposedly not in use well-covered with duct tape or better yet first with petroleum jelly or otherwise assume whether it is the Russian mafia, the NSA or any of a thousand others working solo or for another "outfit" that some creepy criminal geek working for whichever may well be watching and listening to one's under-age daughter talking about her parents, changing her clothes, sitting on the toilet, or worse....

GOOGLE aka "KNOWN ISSUES" May Change Name To "GOO-GLITCH" Denotes Multitude Of Faulty Products Once Known To Buyers Simply As "Defective". Please GOO-GLITCH Has No Time To Answer Piddling Questions So Beneath Its Giant Piles Of Cash About KNOWN ISSUES Replaces Nothing Unless One Bought "The Plan" But Please Feel Free To Gnaw In On Our Unpaid "Buddies Circle Jerkle" Best Known Guesses So We Can Sell Your Personal Info ID'ing You Too In "Buddies Circle Jerkle" Social Media

       Sunday, 3 August 2014, MOUNTAIN "OF CASH" VIEW, CALIFORNIA -Well Blogger friends and domestic help are any of you getting nearly as rich as Google yet letting Google aka KNOWN ISSUES data mine your every contact and interest that you were not even sure you had with their relatively recently joined or merely just more encouraged and patted on their heads by (but never yet consciously -- to them -- punished with the old water board) their new best CIA friends who coincidentally almost magically just have found themselves just so very simultaneously as fascinated as Google with every activity in your life. It is all just money to Google whether the information for commercial social media wars and incidental bonuses from the CIA comes in through Blogger+ or the old "sponsored results" that never ever would have happened on so reputably academic a search engine as Google until of course they did.
       So when did Google and the others like Zuckerboy begin to feel so sure they were above the law (probably from a little too much exposure to those charged with enforcing the law against "others") that they for example apparently can claim when they never answer you except in court sell you products which were previously just known as "defective" junk but never anymore return for refund but instead have developed to the point that they have the audacity to tell you they do no even answer phones about defects but just maybe you can "circle buddy" with some of the thousands of others who also have suffered through their so-called "beta" defects and will be happy to commiserate but please just be clear on one thing most importantly which is even if GOO-GLITCH aka KNOWN ISSUES gives those unpaid geeks a few unpaid ribbons everything they come up with is strictly answered on their own behalves and NO KNOWN ISSUES guarantees nothing except any royalties coming from more social media data mining belongs to them (and their CIA partners) alone.
        As for the shared problems new "jerkle buddy circle" users are experiencing while Google is busy designing the next generation of planned obsolescence or rather planned defects in its next generation of products while also figuring out ways to get users (or "used ones") to sign off every detail or access to every detail of jerkle buddy life from birth to death and everything inbetween which is pretty crafty because actually in one's "real" social life whatever that used to be none of these geeks were ever your "friends" and would not have merited another scoff if you caught them trying to chart and graph every aspect of your social life which was so much more interesting to them than their own existence spent with their own best friend the Asteroids machine.
       And you were beginning to think that you were just perhaps nothing but not quite mostly up-to-par "bloggers" raking it in which was after all the original "idea" as advertised was it not although coincidentally or not that was just around the time the NSA, CIA and rest of the national acronym crowd began to give Google perhaps just an inkling of the real value of that "Blogger" sky's the limit up-to-the-minute (very roughly speaking) was perhaps after all not really quite so much the focus of the whole "operation" as might have perhaps a bit more honestly been communicated. No now Google makes a fortune off of your Person+ for which you are not getting a dime except new bunch of "freinds" for your "circle of jerkles".
       In fact that part of the tale after seeing a United States President ELECTED after all and all those heady skirmishes just at the shaky borders of the foundation in the age of "terrible secrets" of the United States Constitution once held so dear by so many well that part of the tale really did not seem so "compelling" nor so "heady" to the ones now become in the know and dining with the spooks outside Mclean that it really may have begun to slip their swimming minds just a bit amidst all these heady developments that there were, well, starting to be what rapidly had become the "cover story" that clearly was not nearly so exciting nor PROFITABLE as some of the other stories.
       Well fellow Bloggers we urge you for the moment not to rush into the Blogger+ deal and spend a bit of time asking yourself whether you really deep down feel some COMPELLING REASON to find yourself sharing yourself and so much of your life with some people who well quite frankly as of just a couple years ago may not have even really known from Adam. Remember when you perhaps wanted to prove yourself personally with a successful bit of writing well-received by an audience which was not "scientifically" determined and placed among your, what, followers?
       We ask for now that you just might wish to collect your thoughts for a bit and not jump into putting that + after your personal "profile" information maybe more so as to release its disclosure from a legal point of view and to take Google forward leaps and bounds in some perhaps new merely greedy direction whereby it might get its hands ASAP on that "social media" information from Facebook and the others if not by some in-kind trade that strengthens it all then some sort of clever tact at getting you to actually feel some sort of eagerness to part with that information you might not ever have even dreamed of with a company in ten short years become larger than General Motors and you really are not even sure why. There is after all no big rush. Except perhaps for when the time comes that we all decide to go after Google itself for fraud, class action, punitive damages, invasion of privacy, psychological manipulation by methods of the always jury-loved cult?
       Yes please friends keep us in mind if your statistics that are promised to be accurate and timely seem increasingly are neither. That all that Adsense and other advertising program money you have heard so much of the old favorite Ronald Reagan "anecdotal evidence of" such as quite amazing riches or financial independence or in any case close to it are not quite coming true for you yet either. But then there is always SO MUCH more new information provided by Google and it is no doubt "well" paid acting agents that may not always make that much sense nor seem that revolutionary, but what the heck after just six or seven years why not give them a chance, ESPECIALLY if you have already started your own business.
       Yes friends we sense a new day dawning and since it is one where both a federal agency or agencies and a very rich company or companies who have indeed demonstrated indeed that they do have VERY DEEP pockets we first of all DISCLAIM ANY SPECIAL LEGAL OR FINANCIAL EXPERTISE IN THIS AREA WHICH YOU MUST SEEK ONLY FROM A DULY LICENSED PROFESSIONAL, but may we suggest that in the meantime we proceed carefully and cautiously keeping as best we can accurate records of what we were promised or APPEARED TO BE and WHAT WE ACTUALLY HAVE OR HAVE APPEARED TO RECEIVE. In the meantime we are keeping a very close watch on whether those pageview numbers which Google has provided with growing inaccuracy as freely can be followed in our posts are keeping up commensurate where historical performance would indicate they should be and with these recent efforts even better perhaps maybe even more so God willing with your support which as you are all too aware costs fellow "bloggers" nothing. Just imagine a million bloggers all standing up for one million other bloggers.
       And should we see those growing numbers of pageviews and ad impressions continuing to grow well then we shall also have very good grounds for examining and ask that KNOWN ISSUE is being especially diligent and careful about reporting them completely and timely as that after all was to be at least what is appearing to us as what may be for all of us who choose and performed for Google as our part of the bargain and therefore must especially taking care to make sure that we too benefit richly where they have from our own "benefit of the bargain" and also having done so kept us from putting or fortunes with those of so many competitors for our work from whom Google lured us. And make no mistake as for the specifics of each of us, it is each of us who is putting in the work, writing all the feedback and looking for those non-existent Google return letters. Stay strong, read on, and let those of us who continue on this path remember where lies the true path and reward of "mutual support".
       Let GOOGLE have its KNOWN issues fellow Bloggers we shall have our MUTUAL SUPPORT. So pay attention and in the the unforgettable words of Douglas Adams on the cover of The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy "DON'T PANIC". Just keep track of that money GOOGLE owes you from mathematical errors or selling your social media without your permission to sell and soon those + signs will be adding up in your column also. We hope.
