NSA Whistleblower Edward Snowden Says He Acted to Alert Public of Privacy Breaches


http://www.democracynow.org/2013/6/10/headlines#6101


A former CIA employee working as a contractor for the National Security Agency has come forward as the source behind one of the biggest leaks in U.S. history. Edward Snowden, a former CIA technical assistant now working with the NSA through the military firm Booz Allen Hamilton, revealed his identity in an interview with The Guardian of London. Snowden said he exposed top secret NSA surveillance programs to alert Americans of expansive government spying on innocents.

Edward Snowden: "The public needs to decide whether these programs and policies are right or wrong. And I’m willing to go on the record to defend the authenticity of them and say I didn’t change these, I didn’t modify the story, this is the truth, this is what’s happening, you should decide whether we need to be doing this."

Snowden was speaking from Hong Kong, where he’s been since last month after leaving his home in Hawaii. He says he carefully vetted each document that he released to ensure it was "legitimately in the public interest." Over the last several days, Snowden’s disclosures to The Guardian and The Washington Post have revealed a number of previously unknown surveillance operations carried out by the NSA. These include the collection of millions of U.S. call logs and a secret program called PRISM that gathers data on foreign Internet users from the servers of nine major firms, including Google, Microsoft, Apple, Yahoo! and Facebook. Other disclosures include a presidential directive laying out the guidelines for launching cyber-attacks, and a data-mining tool called Boundless Informant that details U.S. surveillance on computer and telephone networks abroad.
NSA Seeks Criminal Probe, Claims "Grave Damage" in Surveillance Leaks

The National Security Agency has asked the Justice Department to begin a criminal probe into the leaks. On Sunday, the chairs of both congressional intelligence committees, Congressmember Mike Rogers and Senator Dianne Feinstein, said the whistleblower involved should face prosecution. Speaking to NBC News, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper said the leak has done "grave damage."

James Clapper: "For me, it is literally — not figuratively, literally — gut-wrenching to see this happen, because of the huge, grave damage it does to our intelligence capabilities."

The White House is expected to make its first comments today on Edward Snowden’s coming forward as the NSA whistleblower. Snowden had been staying in the same Hong Kong hotel for the past three weeks, but he reportedly checked out earlier today. In its article disclosing his identity, The Guardian of London writes: "[Edward] Snowden will go down in history as one of America’s most consequential whistleblowers, alongside Daniel Ellsberg and Bradley Manning."

As Edward Snowden revealed his identity from Hong Kong, President Obama wrapped up a two-day summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping in California. Outgoing National Security Adviser Tom Donilon said Obama confronted his Chinese counterpart on U.S. allegations of China-based cyberpiracy.

Tom Donilon: "The specific issue that President Obama talked to President Xi about today is the issue of cyber-enabled economic theft, theft of intellectual property and other kinds of property in the public and private realm in the United States by entities based in China. If there continues to be this direct theft of United States property, [Obama said] that this was going to be a very difficult problem in the economic relationship and was going to be an inhibitor to the relationship really reaching its full potential."

In response to the cybertheft complaints, Xi said the U.S. has failed to properly address cyber-attacks against China.
U.S., China Pledge to Reduce HFC Emissions, Seek North Korea Denuclearization


Both sides, however, announced they reached common ground on seeking the denuclearization of North Korea. On the issue of climate change, the two leaders agreed to work jointly on reducing hydrofluorocarbons, or HFCs, the potent greenhouse gases used in air conditioners and refrigerators. The White House says the U.S. and China have reached a framework that could reduce up to a year’s worth of current greenhouse gas emissions.
Pakistan Summons U.S. Envoy After Drone Strike Kills 9

Pakistan has lodged a formal complaint after a U.S. drone strike that killed nine people. A Pakistani government spokesperson said U.S. envoy Richard Hoagland was summoned to Pakistan’s foreign ministry over the weekend.

Aizaz Ahmad Chaudhry: "Given the fact that this drone strike has taken place after the installation of the new government, the importance of this particular protest can be gauged from the fact that the prime minister himself gave the instruction and this was delivered at a very high level. And we do hope that the U.S. government would see merit in the protest that the government of Pakistan has lodged and the arguments that we are making that this is counterproductive and violates our sovereignty."

Maybe if more people were like Edward Snowden, this world wouldn't be in such a mess. Janet Napolitano has told the public, "If you see it, say it!" Well, what's good for the goose, etc.....
