SOME INTERESTING INFORMATION

Spying and Surveillance on Citizens by Authorities
By Knut Holt
http://www.abicana.com

Domestic Surveillance and Spying a Threat against Average Citizens

Authorities of many kind in most societies are routinously surveilling and downright spying on average citizens in a rather intimate way. In the following there is a survey of the various kind of surveillance citizens are subjected to.

Many types of instances are surveilling average citizens in any community in the world and recording data. The data is stored, analyzed and then used for own purposes, handed over to authorities or sold to third parties for proffit. Instances that perform these actions or resceive the data for use are private companies, police, child protective agencies, secret services, social services, insurance companies, scientific institutes, health authorities and many more.

Objectives for this extensive data collection are typically such as: to protect children, to combat illness, for national and domestic security, for scientific use, to find the best advertizing targets for specific goods, for public planning, to develop company strategies and much more. Since the spying is performed in a hideous way the purposes are also poorly known in most instances, and objectives openly communicated may not be the real ones. Steadily more often they use the necessity for protecting the society from terror and children from abuse as an objective, and at the same time one tends to use absurdely wide defitions of terror and child abuse. Here is a survey of the most important contemporary domestic surveillance activities:

When you go to the supermarket or any other bigger store, the products and quantities you buy together with your bank account is read into the payment terminal and stored in the computer connected to that terminal. These data are then typically distributed to a third party that builds up a dossier about the buyng habits associated with your bank account. The third party then gets personal information about you and your family from the bank and identifies you as individuals. Based on your buying habits they then deduce a lot about the personal life of you and you family, including your children. The data is then distributed to cooperating instances, both authorities and private companies.

Most websites that give you free information or free cervices, for example online newspapers, Google, Youtube, Yahoo, are associated with spyware that register data about your activities, store them in a central and distribute them further to third parties. The script for these functions is typically loaded up by a basic script integrated in the page you are reading on. What the uploaded spyscript does, will vary from time to time, and can also be adjusted for the individual user. Based on what can be deduced about your interests, the website will also load up scripts to present adverts for individualized products and cervices. Probably data are also hideously collected by such services for authoriries.

Also most blogs or private webpages based on free systems like for example Wordpress contain scripts that upload spyware when you read or write at the blog. These systems will automatically place the script for uploading of the active spyscripts in the code when the blog or webpage is constructed. A developer with programming knowledge can of cource take that script out, but most forget to do it, or it is against the contract for use of the free development system to do it. When someone reads or writes into the blog or webpage, his activities will be recorded, and what is interesting will be distributed to third parties.

It is a wellknown fact that surveillance cameras with microphones are installed all around at public places like streets, stores, theatres, cinemas, hospitals, sport arenas and schools. There is a growing tendency to install such cameras also at places where intimate activities occur, like locker rooms and toilets, so that anything you do at those places is surveilled. Often the cameras at the most intimate places are hidden so you do not know that they are there, or are camouflaged as some other type of installation. What you or your children do at all these places is also videotaped and stored. These data is steadily more often analyzed and the most interesting things from these audiovisual data are distributed to third parties which most typically will be police, social servcises and child protective agencies.

Drones that fly around high and low to record the activities of citicens are becoming steadily more commen, and these drones are typically used secretly so no-one knows about it. Must so-called UFO-sightings are probably due to sightings of such drones. They takes photos, perform videotaping and listen to wireless communications. They may also contain technology to interfere with such communications. Most typically they surveil districtwise, but are also used to surveil persons on individual basis. There is a growing tendency to especially survail children and their parents with drones. Such drones are most often operated by police units, but stedily more often privat companies, property owners, child protective agencies and social services use drones as a part of their arsenal, or buy services based on drone usage from providers of such survices.

Your telephone service provider or ISP prowider is constantly registering and storing data about all your connections and also store all messages you have resceived or sent. They can also store your voiced conversations if that is of interest. Traditionally the old data are erazed when the roll for the abonnent is full and new data is filled in, but steadily more some key data are stored permanently. These data are handed to authorities on a regular basis or after request. The provider will of cource also sell data about you to third parties that then will send you adverts based on what they can deduce about your interests.

Telephone companies also typically have permanent surveillance lines from their servers to police units so that the communication of spcific citizen can be tapped at will any time. In many countries there are moves to increase the bandwith of this surveiilance network by connecting such lines them to all local telecommunication link stations, and not only to central servers. The objective of this expansion is be able to surveil and record all communication to and from all citizens at all times. These activities are of cource regulated by law, but these vary between communities and often give the authorities wide privileges, and do not be sure that the authorities themselves abide to the law.

In June 2013 a former employee of FBI and of a contractor company working for NSA (National security agency), Eduard Snowden, revealed through newspapers documents that prove that NSA surveil the communication of all customers of certain telephone companies and of services like Google, yahoo, Skype, AOL, Microsoft and Youtube. The documents were mailnly copies of approval from courts in the USA that they could freely take in data about whole groups of citizens. According to the documents the surveillance were massive regarding comunication crossing the border to USA, but somewhat unclear about the extent of surveillance of purely domestic communication.

It seems that the surveillance plan is working this way: The providers handle over to the NSA scheduled lists that identify all calls and all communication sessions and the people communicating. For people thay are especially interested in surveilling, they record in real time the calls and sessions and all data transfere during the calls and sesions, including voice and pictures. The surveillance is achieved through wires directly connected into the backbone servers of the providers. The system used by the NSA is identified with the name PRISM, but some or perhaps much of the data processing is probably done by proprietary software belonging to the providers, because the providers themselves perform surveillance in order to sell data about custoners and their cativities. Probably the providers are paid a rather huge revenue from the authorities for the the data they hand over.

When you or your children visit the family doctor, pediatrician, health center or hospital, or when your children have a physical exam in the school, you typically will deliver a urine specimen or it is taken blood specimens. These specimens will of cource be used to control traditional fysiological parameters, like hemoglobin, blood sugar, cholesterole and lipids. They are also often used to test you for use of illegal drugs, but also legal substances used in a way the society does not approve. Sometimes it is openly communicated that such tests are done, but often not. In addition it is possible to find out a lot more about you or your families lifestyle by applying specific tests to the specimens. The results of the tests are typically stored in central databases, and distributed to interessents that can be insurance companies, social services, child protective agencies, scientific institution and private companies.

If you, and especially your children are under anesthesia for some procedure, being tonsillectomy, dental work or whatever, it is a great chance that the staff or someone cooperating with the staff will do secret exams, take secret pictures, or take secret specimens, often of a very intimate kind, to find out as much as possible about you and your children. And what they find is used by all kind of community services, but perhaps especially the social services and the child protective agecies.

In many societies children are frequently sent to special exams to screen for sexual abuse or sexual behavior that the society does not approve. or to investigate observations that are interpreted as symptoms of sexual abuse. These exams are sometimes done secretly when the child is under anesthesia for some other reason, sometimes with the child awake. In many societies one has got to a situation where the authorithies nearly automatically suspect parents for abusing their children, and always suspect children that deviate some way from the social norm to be victims of sexual abuse. It does not matter for the society if the deviation is positive or negaive. For example will a child that is more intelligent than the average, and showing interests accoring to his or her intelligence nearly automatically be suspected for being an abuse victim.

During these exams they will take all kind of specimens, including specimens from all body openings and they will take intimate picture of the child. These data will be stored permanently and the data themselves or the interpretations made from the data will be distributed to interessents, like police, social services, the school, scientific institutions and child protective agencies.

The activities told about here are not done in every society in every country on Earth at equal extent, but be sure that this informationat least in some degree apply to the society where you live, and in many societies they apply in full extent, and regardless of the society is a democratic one or one that tends towards dictatorship. In all societies there are of cource laws that regulate surveillance of this kind, but the laws are invariably constructed in such a way that certain authorities have nearly full privilage to spy at you or your children with any type of means. The authorities that have the greatest privilages, are usually not the ordinary police, but more often child protective agencies, the school system and social services.

What Happens Before, During and After surgery
by Knut Holt
http://www.abicana.com

When a child, a teenager or an adult have surgery or a complicated examination, a long list of preparations are performed in a specific sequence. During the surgery the bodily functions of the patient is supported and monitored by the means already prepared before the procedure as such. After the surgery the measures are also disconnected in a specific sequence.

One will usually give children more psychological preparation than adults. Children will more often get general anesthesia in cases where adults only get regional or local anesthesia. One will also monitor children more thoroughly, but the measures are mostly the same for adults and children.

There are also cultural differences in the routines from institution to institution and at diverse geographical regions. Therefore everything will not necessarily happen in exactly the same way at the place where you have surgery or perhaps work.

Greatest variation is perhaps to be found in the choice between general anesthesia and only regional or local anesthesia, especially for children.

INITIAL PREPARATIONS

There will always be some initial preparations, of which some often will take place in home before going to hospital.

For surgeries in the stomach area the digestive system often has to be totally empty and clean. This is achieved by instructing the patient to stop eating and only keep on drinking at least one day before surgery. The patient will also be instructed to take in some laxative solution that will loosen all stomach content and stimulate the intestines to expel the content effectively during toilet visits.

All patients will be instructed to stop eating and drinking some hours before surgery, also when a total stomach cleanse is not necessary, to avoid content in the stomach ventricle that can be regurgitated and cause breathing problems.

When the patient arrives in hospital a nurse will receive him and he will be instructed to shift to some kind of hospital dressing, which will typically be a gown and underpants, or a sort of pajama.

If the intestines have to be totally clean, the patient will often also get an enema in hospital. This can be given as one or more fillings of the colon through the rectal opening with expulsion at the toilet, or it can be given by repeated flushes through a tube with the patient in laying position.

Then the nurse will take measures of vitals like temperature, blood pressure and pulse rate. Especially children will often get a plaster with numbing medication at sites where intravenous lines will be inserted at a later stage.

Then the patient and also his family members will have a talk with the anesthetist that explains particularities of the coming procedure and performs a further examination to ensure that the patient is fit for surgery, like listening to the heart and lungs, palpating the stomach area, examining the throat and nose and asking about actual symptoms. The anesthetist may also ask the patient if he has certain wishes about the anesthesia and pain control.

The patient or his parents will often be asked to sign a consent for anesthesia and surgery. The legal requirements for explicit consent vary however between different societies. In some societies consent is assumed if objections are not stated at the initiative of the patient or the parents.

Technically most surgeries, except surgeries in the breast and a few others can be performed with the patient awake and only with regional or local anesthesia. Many hospitals have however a policy of using general anesthesia for most surgeries on adults and all surgeries on children. Some may have a general policy of local anesthesia for certain surgeries to keep down cost. Some will ask the patient which type of anesthesia he prefers and some will switch to another kind of anesthesia than that of the policy if the patient demands it.

When the anesthetist have signaled green light for the surgery to take place, the nurse will give the patient a premedication, typically a type of benzodiazepine like midazolam (versed). The premedication is usually administered as a fluid to drink. Children will sometimes get it as drops in the nose or as an injection through the anus.

The purpose of this medication is to make the patient calm and drowsy, to take away worries, to alleviate pain and hinder the patient from memorizing the preparations that follow. The repression of memory is seen as the most important aspect by many medical professionals, but this repression will never be totally effective so that blurred or confused memories can remain.

The patient, and especially children, will often get funny feelings by this premedication and will often say and do strange and funny things before he is so drowsy that he calms totally down. Then the patient is wheeled into a preparatory room where the induction of anesthesia takes place, or right into the operation room.

MEASURES PERFORMED RIGHT BEFORE ANESTHESIA

Before anesthesia is initiated the patient will be connected to several devices that will stay during surgery and some time after.

The patient will get a sensor at a finger tip or at a toe connected to a unit that will monitor the oxygen saturation in the blood (pulse oximeter) and a cuff around an arm or a leg to measure blood pressure. He will also get a syringe or a tube called intravenous line (IV) into a blood vessel, typically a vein in the arm. A couple of electrodes with wires are also placed at the chest or the shoulders to monitor his heart activity.

Before proceeding the anesthetist will once again check all the vitals of the patient to ensure that all parts of the body work in a way that allows the surgery to take place or to detect abnormalities that require special measures during surgery.

Right before the definite anesthesia the anesthetist may gives the patient a new dose of sedative medication, often propofol, through the IV line. This dose gives further relaxation, depresses memory, and often makes the patient totally unconscious already at this stage.

INDUCTION OF GENERAL ANESTHESIA

The anesthetist will start the general anesthesia by giving gas blended with oxygen through a mask. It can as an alternative be started with further medication through the intravenous syringe or through drippings into the rectum and then continued with gas.

Once the patient is dormant, we will always get gas blended with a high concentration of oxygen for some while to ensure a good oxygen saturation in the blood.

By many surgeries the staff wants the patient to be totally paralyzed so that he does not move any body parts. Then the anesthetist or a helper will give a dose of medication through the IV line that paralyzes all muscles in the body, including the respiration, except the heart.

Then the anesthetist will open up the mouth of the patient and insert a laryngeal tube through his mouth and past the vocal cords. There is a cuff around the end of the laryngeal tube that is inflated to keep it in place. The anesthetist will aid the insertion with a laryngoscope, an instrument with a probe that is inserted down the trout that enables him to look down into the airways and also guides the laryngeal tube during insertion.

Then the patient will be given artificial ventilation through the laryngeal tube that provides oxygen and anesthetic gas continually during the whole surgery process.

The traditional anesthetic gases were ordinary ether and chloroform. These are since long obsolete and nowadays one typically uses halogenated (mostly fluoridated) hydrocarbons and halogenated more complex ethers.

FURTHER PREPARATIONS

Then they will take all clothes off the patient so that he will be totally naked. More IV lines will now often be inserted into a vessel in the other arm, at his groin or at his thighs. A special IV line can also be screwed into the marrow in a bone at special occations. He will typically also get more electrodes to monitor the heart activity, for example at the thighs.

Often a tube called a Foley catheter is inserted through the urethral opening all the way into the bladder that then will drain the urine during surgery. At special occations a thin tube is inserted through the wall of the lower abdomen into the bladder instead, a so called supra-pubic catheter.

The patient ill often get a sensor inserted to monitor the core body temperature during surgery. The sensor can go in through the anus, or be pushed down his esophagus. Sometimes a Foley catheter with equipment for measurement of temperature is used instead.

Some surgeries require flushing or drainage of the intestines during and after surgery. Then a tube will be inserted through the anus and up into his colon for that purpose. Often also a tube is is inserted through the nose and down trough the esophagus into the stomach that will stay in place during and often after surgery. The tube is used to keep the stomach empty for secrets or for instillation of nutrients if the patient will not be able to eat for some time after surgery.

A big electrode will be placed onto the body of the patient, most often under the buttocks. This is necessary because the surgeon typically will use some kind of electric cutting tool, often called a harmonic knife, of which the cutting point will serve as the other electrode. Then the surgery site and a wide area around is painted with a solution of the yellow antiseptic agent betadine.

The nurses will lay the patient in the position necessary for surgery, which can be at back with straight kegs, at the side, at the stomach or at back with legs parted and flexed up, and many variations of these positions. The arms are often tied up above the shoulders of the patient or are held straight out from the body at special supports. Then all of the patient except the surgical site and the face is draped in blankets or other clothes.

LOCAL, REGIONAL SPINAL AND EPIDURAL ANESTHESIA

For some surgeries anesthesia comprising body parts are used instead of general anesthesia or in addition to general anesthesia to ease pain after surgery. When used as the main anesthesia, it will typically be administered early before many of the other preparations. When used as an additional aid, it will typically be administered late.

By local anesthesia an anesthetic drug is injected in the local area where the surgery takes place. It is typically used by very small surgeries.

By regional anesthesia one inserts a needle near to a nerve that serves a greater body part and injects an anesthetic so that this body part is numbed and lamed. Sometimes a thin catheter is also inserted through the needle. This will remain when the needle has been pulled out and anesthesia is then administered continually through that catheter afterwards.

Still another type of anesthesia used is so-called epidural anesthesia. By this technique the numbing medication is injected into the room where the spinal cord passes inside the vertebra, but over the dura mater and arachnoidea. These are two tissue sheets that surround the spinal cord. Also by this technique a thin catheter is often inserted through the needle that will remain when the needle has been pulled out to administer anesthesia continually.

A similar technique is spinal anesthesia. Here the medication is injected into the room between the arachnoidea and pia mater. The pia mater is the immediate dressing of the spinal cord. This anesthesia cannot be placed too high up on the back, because it can then hinder breathing and there is then also greater danger for injury to the spinal cord. It is typically used as main anesthesia at the lower part of the body.

Also when these methods are used as the main anesthetic mode, the patient will typically get some calming medication through an IV line in addition.

DURING SURGERY

Anesthesia will be furnished during the whole time of the surgery and body functions will be monitored. Neural activities may also be monitored to ensure that the anesthesia is effective. One may also perform neural tests to ensure that the surgery does not hurt nerves, which will require that the anesthesia is lessened a while.

It is a common belief based on history that the surgeon uses an ordinary knife and stops the bleeding with various kind of pinches. For parts of the work where very great precision is needed, knives are still used. To close great blood vessels, pinches are still the tool if needed. But for the most part he uses more modern cutting tools that also stop the bleeding at once.

The most common tool is a harmonic knife. This is a peak probe through which alternating current is sent into the tissue. The current warms up the tissue exactly at the point where the probe touches so that water boils in the tissue at that point, and the tissue splits apart. The alternating current also makes the blood coagulate. Another tool is a laser that warms up the tissue so that it splits apart and blood coagulates.

The surgeon can also use a coblation tool. This tool releases ions (electrically charged atoms) that have been energetically excited by an alternating voltage. The ions etch and dissolve tissue and the tool also sucks up the dissolved tissue. This kind of tool is mostly used where lumps of tissue shall be taken away, for example by tonsil surgery.

By orthopedic surgery where bone is cut, the surgeon will typically use tools like electric saws and drills and in many ways work just like a carpenter.

The traditional way of recomposing the tissue has been by needle and threads, which still may be used. But nowadays the surgeon often uses means like staples and glue also. By surgery in bone, screws are often used.

Modern surgery is often performed through tiny holes instead of large cuts. Through these holes, tubes called cannulas are placed. Through one of the cannulas a camera is inserted. Other cannulas are used to insert the tools for the work. The body cavity where the work is done is typically inflated by a gas. In the most modern settings, the whole battery of equipment is driven mechanically and is controlled from a computer unit where the surgeon sits. Such a setting is called robotic surgery.

The surgery finishes by closing of the incisions and by wound dressing. Often the surgeon will first places tubes that goes from the inside of the surgical site to the outside, and these will remain some time during healing. The catheters drain the site for blood and fluid that leak from the tissues. They can also be used for flushing of the surgical site and to instill antimicrobial drugs.

AFTER SURGERY

After surgery the anesthesia is discontinued and the patient is allowed to wake up, but artificial ventilation continues some time during this process.

At this point the Foley catheter may be taken out in some cases, in others it will stay for hours or days after surgery. Some IVs, monitoring electrodes and sensors will be taken out, but at least one IV, the pulse oximeter, the blood pressure cuff and an electrode at the upper body will be left to stay some time. Also catheters for administering of local anesthesia and drainage tubes will be left to stay.

It is customary to place back the clothes on the patient at this point, at least at the lower body, which provides that the patient often will not know that he has been totally naked.

When the patient is nearly fully awake, the ventilation is discontinued and they take out the laryngeal tube. The patient will now typically begin breathing of his own. If that does not occur effectively at once, one will ventilate him with a mask until he is better awake.

When stable, the patient will be transferred to a post-operative bed unit where he will be monitored tightly for some hours. During hours and sometimes days after surgery the patient will typically be given medication to alleviate pain and nausea and for relaxation. Pain medication will typically be achieved with opiates. For sedation and nausea treatment they mostly use diazepines like midazolam. Then he will be transferred to an ordinary hospital rooms.

It is not good for the patient to only lay still long after surgery, because that can cause complications like blood clots. Therefore one tries to make the patient rise up some times as soon as possible. To avoid complications due to slow blood circulation, patients may be equipped with cuffs around the legs that are constantly inflated and deflated in a wave-like fashion.

At some point the rest of the IVs, the electrodes and the Foley catheter will be taken out and medication discontinued.
