Ex-CIA man says exposed U.S. spy scheme for better world - GoFuckYourself.com

nexcom28 · 06-09-2013, 03:42 PM

A former CIA employee working as a contractor at the U.S. National Security Agency said he was the man who had leaked details of a top secret U.S. surveillance programme, acting out of conscience to protect "basic liberties for people around the world."

Holed up in a hotel room in Hong Kong, Edward Snowden, 29, said he had thought long and hard before publicising details of an NSA programme code named PRISM, saying he had done so because he felt his country was building an unaccountable and secret espionage machine that spied on every American.

The CIA declined to comment.

Both the Washington Post and Britain's Guardian newspaper - to whom he gave the documents he had purloined - published Snowden's identity on Sunday after he sought to be identified.

"I don't want to live in a society that does these sort of things ... I do not want to live in a world where everything I do and say is recorded. That is not something I am willing to support or live under," he told the Guardian, which published a video interview with him on its website.

He shouldn't have bothered putting his neck on the line for a few days of headlines, anyone who followed the news after 9/11 knew this was happening. Most people in the US & UK don't give a shit, they'll forget all about it in a day or two and continue to share everything about their lives through Facebook, Twitter & Google anyway.

He is the hero in the media so US government will be unhappy if someone (else) kills him as everyone will think he was killed by the US government. I think he will be protected - even if, possibly, inside a jail for life.

This is what I don't get - why take such risks to expose information that was already known by those who read about such things.

Did he just want his name in the newspaper or something?

Who knows, perhaps he had already been burnt for another reason or is already on a hitlist and had nothing to lose, a bit like Benazir Bhutto

The fact he's in China suggests he may be a double agent, just a thought

This stuff happens all the time with whistleblowers, anyone remember Alexander Litvinenko killed by the KGB for exposing some of Russia's dark secrets

I suppose I was a bit too vague with my post, what I meant was that after 9/11 the UK & US passed new laws where ISPs had to install black boxes on their servers and keep a record of everything for (I think it was 5 years)

So basically any intelligence agency had access to all this information anyway, it's just with this project PRISM it's taken it to a whole new level because it makes it so much easier for them to get direct access to the info they want or need.

I mean these laws where passed before Facebook, Gmail, Twitter existed - You know back when people still actually gave a shit about their privacy, when people where up in arms about Government proposed National ID cards etc around 2003 - 2005

i don't recall any black boxes being required by law to be installed on isp's after 9/11.

i do recall there was the surveliance act, they were monitoring foreign phone calls. then later there was the warrantless wiretapping, which consequential issues led to the end of that program.

i think we are on the same page though eh, this is a whole nother lever. people need to be all atwitter about this. obama is already on the defensive about it.

Rochard · 06-09-2013, 09:06 PM

Son of a bitch... This fucker dropped out of high school, got his GED, did not graduate from college, and had a comfy $200k a year job with a defense contractor...

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...rview/2405873/

Quote:

Snowden grew up in Elizabeth City, N.C., but his family eventually moved to a gray-shingled house in Ellicott City, Md., near NSA headquarters at Fort Meade, the Guardian reported. He did not complete high school and instead earned a GED certificate. Snowden did not finish community college, where he studied computers.

In 2003, he enlisted in the U.S. Army, but broke both his legs in a Special Forces training accident and was discharged, he told the Guardian.

But this was the best part...

Quote:

The Guardian said Snowden is so worried about surveillance that he pads his hotel room door with pillows to prevent eavesdropping and drapes a hood over his head and laptop to avoid password detection by hidden cameras.

Socks · 06-09-2013, 09:11 PM

If you're good with computers, the fuck you need a degree for? 9/10 times I would hire the self taught programmer over someone who learned at school.

And if I was him I'd be paranoid too.. You should be especially paranoid at his actions, since he has first hand info on what technologies they're actually using these days to eavesdrop and such.

They said they can understand conversations by pointing a device at a glass pane window and reading the vibrations from a distance.... That's some scary shit.

I know you think you have "nothing to hide" but there are those of us who enjoy a bit of privacy.

Put it this way.. What if it wasn't the "government" listening to your calls, reading your e-mails etc.. But say Los Zetas? Then would you be worried?

Sorry my mistake, this law came out in the UK before 9/11

Regulation Of Investigatory Powers Act 2000

Also more good into about it here

Yes we are on the same page! It's absolutely terrifying if you sit and think about the wide spread implications down the line if our governments become more authoritarian.

No need for a trial if you've been accused or doing something wrong, all laid out infront of you in black and white

Also a great way to blackmail/manipulate people in the future if there is anything they've ever looked at or regretted doing online.

Sadly privacy is a thing of the past, just wait until Google glasses take off. Social trends are powerful things, governments have no need to force people to do things anymore when they can socially engineer them into doing what they want.

In 10 years time it won't surprise me if a big percentage of people are permanently wearing some form of augmented reality glasses whether it's Google or some other company and then every single thing you say or do will be recorded.

I find the whole thing totally ridiculous - I really dont care if the govt want to snoop on the bad guys.

I find the power of google et al a lot more worrying. Google is snooping and logging everything you do in display more ads and sell you more useless shit. Apple are turning into the thought police with their neo-con attitudes to naked women.

These corps are now so powerful that they can operate with a global footprint, domiciled nowhere, paying virtually zero corp tax, unregulated, more powerful than any government.

At this moment these digital mega corps make the CIA look like amateurs, they make fools of our tax authorities, and they hold more data about your lives than you could ever imagine.

Our governments can be changed if we don't like their policies, but who is governing Google ?

http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology...d-eric-schmidt

The arrogance is breath taking.

Some of you might remember the EU fining Microsoft several billions when it added Explorer to Windows. Govt's decided that they (microsoft) were abusing their monopoly position to stifle competition. Back then they seemed to care when a company wielded too much power. However now they have lost their teeth.

and what do you know there's also reference to google CIA connections on the same page

"In-Q-Tel sold 5,636 shares of Google, worth over $2.2 million, on Nov 15, 2005.[6] The stocks were a result of Google’s acquisition of Keyhole, the CIA funded satellite mapping software now known as Google Earth."

Over the years, some critics have dismissed In-Q-Tel as a government boondoggle. They have described the firms it invests in ominously as "CIA-backed," as if they were phony companies serving as cover for spy capers.

But in interviews with more than a dozen current and former CIA officials, congressional aides, venture capitalists that have worked with it and executives who have benefited from it, no one disputed that what began as an experiment in transferring private-sector technology into the CIA is working as intended.

I find the power of google et al a lot more worrying. Google is snooping and logging everything you do in display more ads and sell you more useless shit. Apple are turning into the thought police with their neo-con attitudes to naked women. These corps are now so powerful that they can operate with a global footprint, domiciled nowhere, paying virtually zero corp tax, unregulated, more powerful than any government. At this moment these digital mega corps make the CIA look like amateurs, they make fools of our tax authorities, and they hold more data about your lives than you could ever imagine. Our governments can be changed if we don't like their policies, but who is governing Google ? http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology...d-eric-schmidt The arrogance is breath taking. Some of you might remember the EU fining Microsoft several billions when it added Explorer to Windows. Govt's decided that they (microsoft) were abusing their monopoly position to stifle competition. Back then they seemed to care when a company wielded too much power. However now they have lost their teeth. __________________ "Americas Hitler" JD Vance. “There isn’t really an upside to Trump.” Tucker Carlson. “a convicted felon rapist is now your president” OneHungLow, gfy.com
