Olympic WiFi Police Clamp Down On 3G Hotspots At Games
« on: August 02, 2012, 1409 UTC »
Further to the banning of 3G hotspots at the London 2012 Olympic games, to protect the communication of referee and measuring devices used within the different sports at the London 2012 games, from wireless interference during large public events.

The Olympic’s have “Wifi Police” patrolling the Olympic venues who are equipped with frequency trackers looking for unauthorised 3G hotspot offenders or wireless access points using the restricted Olympic frequencies.

“Personal/private wireless access points and 3G hubs (smart devices such as Android phones, iPhone and tablets are permitted inside venues, but must not be used as wireless access points to connect multiple devices).”

They also have Tweet Nazi's, where if you offend someone, you go to jail.

Olympics are a fucking joke and even the CBC commentators admit it's as political as all heck, under the guise of sport. It's an ultimate exercise in control and heavy handed authority.

I have first hand knowledge from Vancouver 2010.

Peace!

The Olympics is all about furthering the cause of world government which is coming fast and furious. Todays games are no different  from the 1936 games in which hitler tried to show off to the world his Aryan races superiority , except on a global scale and more accepting of different cultures but only because it's about money.

If they actually were capable of having people's best interests at heart and be totally neutral and unbiased respecting cultures, it wouldn't be a bad thing.

But we all know they'll be puppets of the big corporations/banks.

Anonymous for world government leaders, anyone? They'd get my vote!

Peace!

Leave it to a couple Canucks to turn a thread into politics :D
Rick Mercer for world president! ;D
