Boston Using Aerial and Street Level Thermal Cameras

[ClosetAdvocate]

This should be a wakeup call for all you guys (regardless of whether you grow or not).
Coverage of the story on Boston's CBS station: http://boston.cbslocal.com/2011/04/11/thermal-cameras-show-too-much/

Apparently, the City of Boston contracted with Sagewell Inc (http://www.sagewell.com/) to take infrared photographs of homes to "evaluate" how energy efficient they were. There is a "optout" option on their website, but I'm not sure how much I'd trust that.

Insulate your grow rooms well and check out the news story.


You're not just paranoid, if they really are out to get you.

Thanks for getting this out I was just going to try and beat VTA to it, but you beat us both. They can do up to 20k pictures per night and then come back and tell you about it...The squeeze is on so know whats left of your dissapearing rights and be prepared for sure. NS
