Comme on le sait, l’\u00c9tat de l’Utah est un point strat\u00e9gique majeur dans le fonctionnement de la NSA, comme, par cons\u00e9quent, pour la campagne lanc\u00e9e contre la NSA. (Voir notamment le 5 d\u00e9cembre 2013<\/a> et, dans le F&C<\/em> de ce m\u00eame 14 f\u00e9vrier 2014<\/a>, la citation de Tracy Rosenberg : \u00abThe big target is Utah, home of the huge Utah Data Center in Bluffdale, where the provision of 1.7 million gallons of water by the state every day cools the huge supercomputers.<\/em>\u00bb) <\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tDans Antiwar.com<\/em>, ce m\u00eame 14 f\u00e9vrier 2014<\/a>, Justin Raimondo enfourche cette cause en d\u00e9signant l’Utah comme le tendon d’Achille de l’\u00c9tat de surveillance et en annon\u00e7ant qu’une action l\u00e9gislative a \u00e9t\u00e9 lanc\u00e9e dans cet \u00c9tat, similaire \u00e0 celle qui est en cours d\u00e9sormais dans au moins treize \u00c9tat de l’Union. (Cela, en ajoutant ce d\u00e9tail int\u00e9ressant de l’\u00e9norme masse d’eau exig\u00e9 par le centre de stockage de m\u00e9tadonn\u00e9es en cours d’ach\u00e8vement dans cet \u00c9tat, pr\u00e8s de 7 millions de litres par jour, alors que l’Utah souffre d’une p\u00e9nurie d’eau \u00e0 cause d’une s\u00e9cheresse persistante, \u00e9ventuellement mise au compte par certains de la crise climatique, rencontre des genres, certes.)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00abThe movement to end the Surveillance State is finally getting serious. With the failure by Congress to rein in the NSA although the heroic Rep. Justin Amash nearly succeeded in doing so activists on the state level are mounting a campaign that promises to hit Big Brother where it really hurts by cutting off the NSA’s water supply at its Bluffdale, Utah, Data Center. A bill introduced in the Utah legislature by state representative Marc Roberts (R-Santaquin) would cut off the water supply to the NSA’s massive facility which will gobble up 1.7 million gallons of water per day in a state already hit hard by a region-wide drought.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tIl y a donc actuellement quatorze \u00c9tats (en comptant l\u00a0\u00bbUtah) qui sont engag\u00e9s dans une action anti-NSA au cur de leurs propres l\u00e9gislatives. Parmi ceux-ci, le Maryland, dont nous avons mis en \u00e9vidence l’importance, quasi \u00e9quivalente \u00e0 celle de l’Utah (voir le 12 f\u00e9vrier 2014<\/a>). Mais c’est bien l’Utah<\/a> qui est l’objet de toutes les attentions, notamment, \u00e0 notre sens, \u00e0 cause du caract\u00e8re symbolique de l’\u00e9norme complexe de stockage, dans un environnement o\u00f9 l’interpr\u00e9tation symbolique a toujours \u00e9t\u00e9 tr\u00e8s pr\u00e9sent, notamment avec la pr\u00e9sence de la communaut\u00e9 mormone (62% de la population).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tRaimondo d\u00e9crit la situation actuelle, o\u00f9 un pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent gouverneur semble avoir pass\u00e9 un march\u00e9 avec la NSA pour la fourniture d’eau, marche d\u00e9sormais largement d\u00e9battu et contest\u00e9, d’autant que les activit\u00e9s et les exigences de la NSA dans l’Utah sont \u00e0 la fois co\u00fbteuses et pauvres en productrices d’emplois. Par cons\u00e9quent, pense Raimondo, le sort de la proposition de loi anti-NSA, avec menace de coupure d’alimentation en eau, introduite dans la l\u00e9gislature de l’\u00c9tat, risque d’avoir un certain succ\u00e8s, et surtout un impact pol\u00e9mique national. Certains, chez les pro-NSA, parlent d\u00e9j\u00e0 d’un boycott international de l’\u00c9tat si de telles mesures anti-NSA sont envisag\u00e9es. Mais Raimondo appara\u00eet tr\u00e8s optimiste et ses exhortations ressemblent \u00e0 un encouragement \u00e0 une rupture compl\u00e8te avec Washington, le cri, horriblement s\u00e9ditieux pour le Syst\u00e8me, de d\u00e9volution, de quasi-s\u00e9cession, bref, de la d\u00e9structuration dissolvante du pseudo-empire en carton p\u00e2te.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00abUtah state legislators are clearly getting a lot of flak from the voters, and are quite nervous about the Data Center being in their state, but you’d never know that from the national and international coverage of the issue. Spencer Ackerman, writing in The Guardian, deemed the anti-NSA effort quixotic, without quite saying why, and the Washington Post, the voice of our political class, contends state legislators are sending mixed messages when it comes to the NSA. This is pure spin. One imagines an enormous amount of pressure is now being exerted on these recalcitrant state legislators to go along with the program and allow their state to become world-renown as the NSA’s Mount Doom, but will those ferociously independent Westerners knuckle under? Somehow, I doubt it.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbJust in case they need a little persuading, however, I would suggest that the threat of an international boycott of the state of Utah hanging over their heads might push them in the right direction. That may not be necessary, however, because it looks to me like the local political dynamics are moving in the right direction.<\/em> […]<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbForget dealing with this in Washington the corrupt capital of a world empire that has no regard for the Constitution or the opinions of those they supposedly represent. The only way to dismantle the monstrous Panopticon built in secret by our wise rulers is to subvert it at the local level. We’re through with supplication now let’s move to resistance. Let the battle cry go up: Turn it off!…<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \tMis en ligne le 14 f\u00e9vrier 2014 \u00e0 07H27<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Justin, l’Utah et la NSA Comme on le sait, l’\u00c9tat de l’Utah est un point strat\u00e9gique majeur dans le fonctionnement de la NSA, comme, par cons\u00e9quent, pour la campagne lanc\u00e9e contre la NSA.
