"Homeland Security" monitors US citizen's house

Tom says:

When I bought my house last summer, this sticker was on the front door. I never bothered to actually read it until I decided to replace the door.

Sure, I knew it was a possibility, but I never thought they'd be so blatant about it!

Just hold on there for a second...

He didn't even check for wiretaps after that?

I see he lives in an undisclosed location.

Perhaps the premise isn't true.

I did scan the house for RF signals. --Tom

I got two of these included with a security camera purchased from Wal*Mart two years ago.

Can't find a manufacturer's page, but here's the Amazon view of the Homeland Security brand products: http://tinyurl.com/abf36l

Join the club, Chief. Now I have to put on pants every time I check the mail.

Dude, if I worked for these guys I would be SO flashing my card at restaurants and what have you.
"Damn right I work for Homeland Security! Now give me your best table (I'm on surveillance...)."

Heh. Homeland Security is an (apparently Chinese) manufacturer of cheap 'security' products. I have a Homeland Security paper shredder I got from the bargain bin at Office Depot. Had to repair it after 3 days.

The name gave me a chuckle. I figure naming a company after a creepy semi-orwellian government agency made perfect sense to someone in China.

Why? I figure if anybody is going to the trouble of watching me, I might as well make sure they get a good show.
