The “hero” whistle-blower is actually a career NSA agent, former CIA spook who trained to be Special Forces (unconventional warfare) He is breathlessly revered by the Guardian as the next best thing to happen to democracy since Daniel Ellsberg and Bradley Manning yet what he “leaked” is well known to anyone paying attention over the past few years. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/jun/09/technology-giants-nsa-prism-surveillance Technology giants struggle to maintain credibility over NSA Prism surveillance Holmes Wilson, the co-founder of the online rights group Fight for the Future said it was clear that the systems set up with the tech companies presented huge privacy issues. "These companies are denying that they give direct access to their servers, but what they have created is a complex legal and technological mechanism that amounts to the same thing. God knows what other government agencies have access to this information. "This makes it too easy for the government agencies. There is tremendous potential for abuse here. We are still only seeing glimpses of what is going on. It is only a matter of time before some employee goes rogue here," he said. Wilson called for a congressional investigation. "Things can not go on like this," he said. http://cmh.8k.com/cgi-bin/blog/view_post/882615 Four Things To Know About Surveillance Leaker Edward Snowden June 9, 2013 reader comment: "Leaker my ass!

For many years, kooky nuts have insisted that the NSA has been watching every electronic communication in America. It generally focuses on the ECHELON system (the NSA sure seems to be fond of all-caps names, incidentally) but it turned out to be called PRISM. Responsible adults generally respond by pointing out that such a vast conspiracy would be impossible to keep secret, and furthermore would be so obviously illegal that the NSA’s lawyers would steer clear. Well, the responsible adults were wrong and the kooks were right. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/jun/08/nsa-boundless-informant-global-datamining Boundless Informant: the NSA's secret tool to track global surveillance data The National Security Agency has developed a powerful tool for recording and analysing where its intelligence comes from, raising questions about its repeated assurances to Congress that it cannot keep track of all the surveillance it performs on American communications. The Guardian has acquired top-secret documents about the NSA datamining tool, called Boundless Informant, that details and even maps by country the voluminous amount of information it collects from computer and telephone networks. Webmaster's Commentary: WRH: By now, anyone that really does have something to hide form the government is setting up secure alternative means of communications (if they had not already done so before). So, the government has no reason to continue this operation any longer ... unless it was always about spying on law abiding people who do not think they have something to hide from the government. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/boundless-informant http://desertpeace.wordpress.com/2013/06/09/big-brother-obama-is-watching-you/ BIG BROTHER OBAMA IS WATCHING YOU President Barack Obama offered a strong defense Friday of his administration’s newly disclosed programs to monitor phone and Internet activity, insisting that secret surveillance helps prevent terrorist attacks. WRH: Boston proved this claim is false. Indeed, I have to wonder, with all the phone calls and internet traffic being monitored since 2006, why aren't American drug lords being arrested? Why wasn't the Wall Street Mortgage-backed securities fraud stopped in its tracks? And failing that, why are no Wall Street executives being arrested given that even Wall Street workers admit fraud and criminality are rampant? More people are dying from Wall Street's crimes than from terror attacks. Why no arrests? Why does the government insist it cannot find the authors of those so-called "Muslim" terror websites? If the government can monitor phone calls to reporters, why aren't they catching all of the bribery going on on Capitol Hill? Why didn't the government expose the climategate hoax in 2009 with their superior access to the computer records of those involved? Why did it take private citizens to expose that hoax? We are told there is an epidekic of perverts soliciting children for sex online. That multi-billion dollar total surveillance system doesn't seem to have put a dent in that problem. The Catholic Church carried out a global campaign of suppression over the pedophile clergy scandal. That multi-billion dollar total surveillance system didn't expose that for the world to see! This multi-billion dollar total surveillance system should have brought some of the worst problems afflicting our society to a absolute dead standstill, but has not. It is not only a massive violation of the Constitution, it doesn't seem to have yet produced any beneficial results at all! Unless, of course, the government has no interest in stopping drug traffickers, Wall Street and DC corruption, climate hoaxers, pedophile clergy and other perverts, or even the bozos flooding out email boxes with Viagra ads, and this multi-billion dollar total surveillance system exists solely to keep you from complaining about the crimes, the corruption, the hoaxes, etc. So we are down to a simple choice. Is this multi-billion dollar total surveillance system a complete and utter failure, or is the government on the side of the criminals, the corrupters, the drug lords, the cyber-criminals, etc.? Take your pick! ----------------------- 20130612 http://www.jimstonefreelance.com/nsaedward.html The Future of the NSA Jim Stone, June 9 2013 Edward Snowden did the world a favor by officially blowing the whistle on what I have said has likely been going on for a while - the recording of every phone call, voice message, text message, financial transaction and any other communication in the nation. Even though I said this was probably going on for a while, I was still surprised that this was going on for at least 8 years. Now they got that new data center in Utah, and another in Maryland, both of which are many times more powerful than anything they have ever had. And I am going to tell you where this is all probably headed. -------------------- 20130612 http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-06-11/27-edward-snowden-quotes-about-us-government-spying-should-send-chill-your-spine 20130614 http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-06-14/thousands-firms-trade-confidential-data-us-government-exchange-classified-intelligen Thousands Of Firms Trade Confidential Data With The US Government In Exchange For Classified Intelligence The rabbit hole just got deeper.
