FBI tracks 20 year old half Egyptian

[KrissyElise]

I thought this was interesting. The kid is a 20 year old college student that was born in America. (Not that this means he can't be up to no good.) Just thought this was interesting.


A California student got a visit from the FBI this week after he found a secret GPS tracking device on his car, and a friend posted photos of it online. The post prompted wide speculation about whether the device was real, whether the young Arab-American was being targeted in a terrorism investigation and what the authorities would do.

It took just 48 hours to find out: The device was real, the student was being secretly tracked and the FBI wanted their expensive device back, the student told Wired.com in an interview Wednesday.

The answer came when half-a-dozen FBI agents and police officers appeared at Yasir Afifi?s apartment complex in Santa Clara, California, on Tuesday demanding he return the device.

Afifi, a 20-year-old U.S.-born citizen, cooperated willingly and said he?d done nothing to merit attention from authorities. Comments the agents made during their visit suggested he?d been under FBI surveillance for three to six months.

The FBI is scared shitless. People who were born in the US, moved to the Middle East with their families, can now come and go and can be considered a huge terrorist threat. This kid did nothing wrong, but now he's being followed by the FBI.

Tends to happen after Osama Bin Laden lived and trained in the USA.

I bet the FBI only started following him after his classmates made a bunch
of paranoid accusations with no facts.

Love the part of demanding the device back.

An FBI spokesman wouldn?t acknowledge that the device belonged to the agency or that agents appeared at Afifi?s house.



I'm sorry I can't give it back to you unless you can prove it's yours, maybe it belongs to the CIA?

Our government is out of control.

They get a budget. They have to spend through that budget or it gets taken back. So you have to create work.

One of the largest problems of the system, and why "broke" hospitals had expensive LCD screens before anyone else, like 10 years ago.

I would leave it on the side of the road and claim ignorance

Instead of tracking some Egyptian, they should better get on the Malick case.

[redwhiteandblue]

He shoulda stuck it on someone else's car.

A large portion of the population is packing around "tracking devices" already and don't even give it a second thought.

[fatfoo]

They said they want to fight terror with terror.
That is quite difficult.

Yeah but they need warrants to monitor/track those. Your car is free game. Fuck the supreme courts ruling. 100% invasion of privacy.
