WARNING: YouTube Collecting Pictures from Phones at Anytime WITHOUT PERMISSION - Big Brother Spy Camera!

Is YouTube spying on you? The following message is what my father Mike Bellow sent me this morning regarding a YouTube update on his phone that will allow YouTube to collect anything that your phone camera sees at anytime:

Mike Bellow
I was going to update YouTube on my Smartphone. I read the permissions. As worded, they can collect video or pictures of ANYTHING at ANYTIME! I took a screenshot of what I would be agreeing to. I am NOT updating YouTube with it worded as it is. I am advising others not to in this post.

YouTube update will allow ANYTHING you take with camera CAN be COLLECTED by ANYTIME by YouTube! If you accept the update you GIVE YouTube "Big Brother" unlimited access!! ALWAYS read what you are accepting!!!!
 

ACTUALLY, as worded, "...what the camera is seeing" combined with another NEW permission that starts YouTube when you start your phone (running in background) gives YouTube the ABILITY, AND PERMISSION, to "collect" pictures at "ANY TIME" WITHOUT SWITCHING to the camera function!!! We may NEVER know when they are "COLLECTING"!! Spread the word!
ANY LAWYERS OUT THERE WHO CAN COMMENT ON LEGAL WORDING?!?

It was not that long ago that I posted this article up on my blog about the Department of Homeland Security watching our blogs, Facebook posts and Twitter updates: 

DHS Monitoring Blogs? David Bellow tells KETK NBC, “Good! They Might Learn Something!” http://hardincountyconservatives.blogspot.com/2012/01/dhs-monitoring-blogs-david-bellow-tells.html 

Now YouTube is Spying on us through our own cameras? This is nuts!

Lumberton Man, Mike Bellow, Receives Hero Award for Saving Knife River Truck Driver After Crash in TX


It was a normal day for Mike Bellow on Sept. 24, as he and his son, Steven, were traveling along Hwy. 90 near Raywood. They were on their way to a convention, traveling along the country road enjoying conversation.
Things took a dramatic turn as Bellow witnessed an accident in front of him. A transit mixer was hit head-on by a motorist traveling in the opposite direction. The impact was horrendous and fire soon began to engulf the vehicles.
As Bellow watched the growing flames, Steven pointed out that the driver of the transit mixer was trying to get himself out of his vehicle. Not thinking of the danger he was putting himself in, Bellow ran to the vehicle and helped the driver escape the fiery wreckage.
Three months later, on Dec. 21, representatives from Knife River Corporation, the company whose driver was involved in the accident, gathered in Beaumont to honor Mike Bellow with an Award of Heroism from Knife River.
"We at Knife River are appreciative for the actions of Mr. Bellow that likely saved the life of one of our employees during a tragic situation," said Knife River General Manager Larry Rougeau. "It's not just anybody that would stop. I have seen many other accidents through the years where some people may stop but others tend to ignore them and keep on going. We feel blessed as a company to be recipients of his actions."
Knife River has given out numerous hero awards to employees for actions that were deemed to be acts of heroism, but the award to Bellow marks the first time in the history of the company that the award has been presented to someone outside the company.
Roy Kirkpatrick, South Region President of Knife River, said many people are afraid of liability issues, unsure of the situation, and unsure of what to do in times of crisis.
"I think his actions are a testament of who Mr. Bellow is," he said. "We perceive our jobs as an extended family, so it was one of our extended family members whose life he could very well have saved. This is something that we don't take lightly.
"Acts like this and saving a life are really taken into consideration, especially at this time of year. When you realize what could have happened and what could have taken place, had Mr. Bellow not come to his aid, this driver's family may be going through the holidays without him."
Bellow was joined by his family as the award was presented in the ceremony.
"I am grateful to God that I was able to help pull him out," he said. "I thought a lot about liability, but he was trying to get himself out of the wreckage and wanted help. I figured if God spared him it was my job to help get him out. That is what I tried to do."

Southeast Texas Father Heroically Saves 350lb Stranger from Fiery Car Accident

Here are Pictures of the Tragic accident. You can see the Cement Truck where my dad pulled the man away from

With no concern of his own safety, and injuring his back in the process, my father heroically, and with seemingly super strength, drug this 350lb man through diesel and cement and away from the burning vehicle and pools of fuel.
9/24/11
This morning my father, Mike Bellow from Lumberton, TX, was driving down a winding Texas highway near Devers, TX/Raywood, TX. The sun was coming up in his rear view mirror and was bright red. He was driving behind a concrete truck filled with a full load. As they passed around a curve, a truck driving on the opposite direction did not turn around the curve and crashed straight into the concrete truck. He possibly could not see because of the rising sun. The smaller truck and the cement truck seemed to disintegrate on impact. There was nothing recognizable of either vehicle.
My father swerved into the grass to avoid the accident. The smaller truck was not recognizable as a truck and was on fire. The person in that smaller truck had surely died on impact. My father believed that the driver of the concrete truck was surely dead as well.
My young brother, Stephen, was in the car with my father. He asked if everyone was ok. My father told him that the people in the cars had died. That is when my brother pointed to the accident and asked, “what about that guy in the big truck?”
Sure enough, the driver of the concrete truck was still alive. My father did not even turn his car off. He jumped out and ran as fast as he could to the cement truck.
The man in the concrete truck was over 350 pounds and could not move because of broken legs and hips.
The smaller truck was on fire and was exploding. My father was standing in a pool of extremely flammable fuel and 6 inches of cement. It was only a matter of time before the concrete truck goes up in flames.
With no concern of his own safety, and injuring his back in the process, my father heroically, and with seemingly super strength, drug this 350lb man through diesel and cement and away from the burning vehicle and pools of fuel. They were both covered in fuel and blood and the man that my father was dragging begged to be taken further away from the fire so my dad drug him even further away, into the grass.
It is not know what the condition is of the man that my father saved, but one thing is certain, my father is a hero and did not think of his own life as he saved the life of another.
My prayers are with this man that he recovers and I thank God for allowing my father to be in the position to, and giving him the bravery to help this man.
