This should scare the hell out of every freedom-loving American.

The CDC is asking tech giants for access to Americans’ cellphone locations. That way the government can track the location of every American and see whether Americans are properly practicing “social distancing.”


This sounds like a futuristic nightmare in realtime.
The Roanoke Tea Party reported on this.
NBC News reported:

The White House and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are asking Facebook, Google and other tech giants to give them greater access to Americans’ smartphone location data in order to help them combat the spread of the coronavirus, according to four people at companies involved in the discussions who are not authorized to speak about them publicly.


Federal health officials say they could use anonymous, aggregated user data collected by the tech companies to map the spread of the virus — a practice known as “syndromic surveillance” — and prevent further infections. They could also use the data to see whether people were practicing “social distancing.

Corona Causes Another Constitutional Violation Politicians Want You to Accept



March 19, 2020

Martial Law disguised as “State of Emergency” was just the beginning. Now our politicians and bureaucrats want unfettered access to the data on your phone because… Corona Virus.
Corona has had an infection rate world wide of only .000012 and world wide only .00000041 have actually died.


Our politicians and bureaucrats with the help of the media have convinced a majority of Americans that this is a catastrophe of epic proportion that warrants a dramatic and illegal response. This quote is from an NBC news report:

“The White House and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are asking Facebook, Google and other tech giants to give them greater access to Americans’ smartphone location data in order to help them combat the spread of the coronavirus, according to four people at companies involved in the discussions who are not authorized to speak about them publicly.”


Shutting down the country, destroying the economy, causing mass financial hardship and bankruptcy to ordinary citizens and small business owners, declaring martial law, and now eliminating the protections of the 4th and 5th amendments have all been done in the name of safety. Safety from what? The least deadly “pandemic” of the last half of the 20th century and the first two decades of the 21st century.
Corona has had an infection rate world wide of only .000012 and world wide only .00000041 have actually died.


Here is the comparison chart of Corona and other “pandemics” over the last 70 years:



Here is a chart showing death rates for the leading causes of death in just the US. Keep in mind that the previous numbers are worldwide and ask yourself just why are people treating Corona as deadlier than these and deadlier than all the other “pandemics” when it clearly is not?

We have to stop these corrupt left-wing Silicon Valley corporations and our government from grabbing more Orwellian (1984) powers during the Covid-19 Pandemic because we will likely find these new powers don't go away after the crisis has passed.

Sign off Facebook and turn off your phone and laptop and they can't track you.
