Re:Fuck it.
Slashdot has pretty much been blocking any anti-clinton stories. Even when they are from neutral stories from people like Glenn Greenwald.
I have 3 submissions one from wsj and two from the intercept just die.*Hillary wants "Manhattan-like project" for secure communications the government can read. https://theintercept.com/2016/...
*Glenn Greenwald writing about the cozy relationship with the press. https://slashdot.org/submissio...
*WSJ Story about the press burying clinton stories. https://slashdot.org/submissio...All we get nonsense stories about the russians and Obama trying to start cold war 2.0 just to get Clinton in the White House.
Very obvious which candidate the /. editors want. -

Re:Illegal?
Um, I'm pretty sure hacking a computer system you don't own is illegal...
Well, if it really was an official Russian campaign, it would be legal for them. Just like many Americans like to point out that when the NSA fucks people from other countries it is legal.
Yes, that is how the law works.
Agree with you, I'm my country spying on me is illegal, but the NSA is doing it and many Americans say that "that's their job". According to the GCHQ, they are doing PSYOPS here too, also illegal here. BTW, this is exactly what the Russians are being accused of.
Clinton has been investigated numerous times, why shouldn't Trump be held to the same standard?
I wasn't talking about investigating Trump, TFA used the expression "illegal Russian efforts". Since the Snowden files came I heard from many Americans that most of what the NSA does is legal, if that is the mentality, these supposedly "Russian efforts" should be considered legal too, because its supposedly the Russian laws and policies.
My point was: If the Russians doing this is illegal, everything the NSA does against foreigners is illegal too. If Americans want to feel outraged with this they should stop doing it to others first.
But one extra point not related to my original post: since what was done to hurt Clinton's campaign was to show the reality of who she is and how she works, I think Americans should be grateful to whomever did this. Just like I think they should be grateful to whomever leaked the Trump tapes. You should know who your candidates are.

Just one question
Just one question: Are they using the same engine that Facebook uses to promote trending news? You know, the one that was posting a bunch of articles from parody sites?
Beyond that, Google has given up on their "Do no evil" motto since they became subsidiaries of Alphabet. Do your own research or you will wind up ignorant, brain washed or worse. They are in tight with the Obama administration, does anyone believe that their fact checking is going to look at both sides of each assertion by each candidate?

Are they going to hold Hillary accountable for her lie that she said denying that she said that the TPP is the gold standard for trade agreements?

Hillary Clinton means more war.
Her long history with Wal-Mart and being the wife of former Arkansas governor Bill Clinton, and the namecalling you brought up notwithstanding, are virtually sideshows compared to war with Russia. This war will probably take the form of her promised "no-fly zone" and "safe zone" in Syria which even she (privately, to her bankster funders) admits will "kill a lot of Syrians" and require ground troops. What is a no-fly zone? Dr. Jill Stein, also running for US president, has clarified what that means:
Hillary Clinton has said she would like to impose a no-fly zone over Syria, which basically means we are going to war with Russia, because that's what you do when you impose a no-fly zone, is you shoot down people that are in that airspace. And remember, we have 2,000 nuclear weapons now, between us and the Russians, on hair-trigger alert. So, this is certainly a very dangerous territory, where Hillary Clinton has continued to beat the drums of war with this idea that we are showing strength and leadership, but leading us in exactly the wrong direction and a very dangerous direction.
Hillary Clinton's hawkishness is bound to cost the US trillions. Continuing Obama's wars (which are all of G.W. Bush's wars plus more wars via drones in a couple countries Bush didn't attack) would do that without adding new wars. But Clinton's belligerency is why the Intercept notes "Robert Kagan and Other Neocons Are Backing Hillary Clinton". A vote for Hillary Clinton is a vote for more war, more extrajudicial assassination, and that includes killing women and children whom Clinton is so keen to convince us she cares about. This merely builds on the wars she's voted for or otherwise supported (Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, etc.). She may be more gentle-toned than Trump but she's the more lethal choice than Trump too. Donald Trump's wide ignorance and many bigotries, as ugly and reprehensible as they are, are being pitched loudly to distract one from considering Sec. Clinton's lethal record of injustice. Fortunately, as I'm sure the Democrats will be happy to attest to should Clinton lose again, there's more than 2 choices for US president.

Since the 1960's?
With the right dictionary list and voice to text hardware that would have been easy with a more limited set of leadership phone numbers in any nation.
Tap all the political leaders, mil, gov, industrial leaders, media, banking elite, celebrities and one productive hop beyond them.
As reports of industrial action, protests, riots, cost of living spread fast amount the left or right political base so a few days warning in most nations would have been possible given actual local events.
Most nations do have vast informant networks and people who have been to jail or made an offer been released as informants. All that domestic information flows to the top and then spreads as gossip among the ruling elite or even as basic insider trading.
The CIA would not have allowed the NSA/GCHQ to be the only gatekeeper over any decade able to get raw data of value out of any nation.
With a smaller, smarter take and limited hops of collected phone numbers per nation, the NSA collect it all, translation, per nation slang and jargon issue would be avoided.
The CIA take would be accurate, focused, on time and realistic for US political consideration.
The other issue with a social uprising is just to create one. US backed Colour revolution at the right time https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... can seem like local issues but have been induced and well funded.

Re: Trump versus Clinton
This is the difference.
“It is no secret that I used a [sic] unclassified personal email account in addition to my classified State computer,’” Powell wrote to the New York Times’s Amy Chozick.
Clinton kept Top Secret material on her hidden server. Powell did nothing of the sort. If you're accusing Powell of breaking classification laws, the burden of proof is on you to provide proof.
I've already stated that there is no way to prove Powell's use, as he stated he has none of those emails, as referenced in the link above. From your link, Powell did state: "I am not sure HRC even knew or understood what was going on in the basement" which I can only believe means that she herself wasn't 100% aware of the technical aspects of her email support, so you'll need to provide proof that she intentionally kept anything hidden on her private email server. Also, we do know that of the 30+K emails Clinton sent, only 22 were later classified as secret after the fact. 104 were considered classified, yet all of those came from an unclassified state dept system. Guess what's not allowed on unclassified systems?
The State Department said it had “upgraded” the classification of the emails at the request of the nation’s intelligence agencies.
Mrs. Clinton’s campaign responded forcefully, saying that the process of reviewing the emails “appears to be over-classification run amok.” A spokesman, Brian Fallon, said all of the emails should be released.
“We understand that these emails were likely originated on the State Department’s unclassified system before they were ever shared with Secretary Clinton, and they have remained on the department’s unclassified system for years,” Mr. Fallon said.
At this point, I'd state that you'd need to prove that a single classified email with known classified information with the proper relationships in the document to actually make them classified was sent knowingly by Clinton from her private email server. Retro-active classification does not qualify. If it came from an unclassified source, it's not classified, even if the gov wants it to be classified (although the rules about public or publicly available knowledge being classified certainly have become somewhat more ephemeral since the last time I dealt with it) When the press first published this "newsworthy" story, I forgot my first rule of "news" stories - be skeptical. The more details have come out the less "newsworthy" this story becomes. At this point, much as I don't like her, I have to give her a pass unless someone can prove something truly illegal occurred.

Re:contracts
Unconstitutional bulk domestic spying is the key to undoing any "Theft of secrets" color of law comments. The US gov/mil cannot hide a from the United States Constitution by invoking a few decades of "secrets".
Whistleblowing and criminal investigation would never work in the US if the gov can just pull "secrets" over any other part of the gov or mil asking legal questions.
So the US is very careful to allow the "secrets" part to drop when discovering legal issues within its gov/mil.
If not US gov/mil/contractors could just quote "security" all day before any US court as a form of total immunity and the US court system would not function.

Re:I for one thank them
Re "If they are behind the leaks of the DNC emails that showed Sanders was never going to be allowed to run that's something every registered Democrat had a right to know."
That was an insider walking out like with the Pentagon papers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.... Another nations ability to get in, stay in and move vast amounts of data undetected is really a bit too much of a cyber fantasy. The ability to find evidence and then tell the waiting media of another nations methods, ip range, code fragments and efforts within hours and days is the fiction.
If the well understood and easy to find method can be detected in hours, how and why was it allowed to move all the data out in real time?
The US gov should have done a secret investigation, leaked a few hints to tame media sites about how the super skilled method was been tracked and the nation of origin over a much longer time frame.
That would have been a better cover story. To have a Bear name waiting and have national media push out method, results and the fact it is well understood kind of showed a hasty, sloppy cover story for an unexpected insider walk out.
Re "despite the fact he denied having any knowledge of her private emails"
Other nations setting up a private email computer and ensuring US political leaders and their staff use it would need a team of trusted long term spies in the centre of US policy creation. Been able to enter such a server at will, move vast amounts of data out would not go undetected by the US/UK gov/mil from any nation of origin or domestic staging server.

Another option is the CIA/MI6 or NSA/GCHQ was playing real time honey pot with real US data sets again and needed another US network left wide open again as bait. Adding or altering the plain text data as needed within real data.

Re:Lame
In your eagerness to dismiss my comment, you may have missed the part where the TSA is already engaged in behavioral profiling despite not having any previous baselines to compare people's behavior to. Of course this means it's useless for detecting the emotions of random people in a TSA screening line, but that hasn't stopped the TSA from putting it in place.
Profiling based upon observable behaviors is not remotely similar to detecting emotions base upon RF detection. One requires calibration of an individual's "signature"; the other does not. This is not to claim that the TSA's method of behavioral screening is effective compare to, say, the methods used by El Al airline screeners; in fact, the TSA's general approach to providing security theatre as opposed to genuine security pretty much predicts that it won't be effective at all.

The press now wonders what the next fake contact with a good story will push up on their computer, network and uncover all their contacts or unpublished work.
Any research found could be a fake link to push unique malware down, any member of the press could then have a computer network that is wide open.

Re:Summary missing important piece...
You gotta remember, liberals love to justify bad behavior, by pointing to (often unrelated)
... bad behavior.You're using that word, "liberals", but who you're really referring to is right wingers who lie to themselves a lot.
It is as if they are four year olds getting in trouble, and saying "but Billy's Mom lets him drink beer/smoke dope".
Did your self-awareness at least tickle a little bit when you wrote that?
You mean, like when Bill Clinton said "Make America Great" is racist, even though he used that same exact phrase a number of times during his own presidential campaign?
Was he being a raving racist moran towards latinos and muslims when he was saying it? No? Then your lazy false equivalency is duly noted.
Actually, there are plenty of benefits that Illegals get, that Citizens don't get. The lack of proper "documentation' gets them a lot of linenacy in criminal situations that I do not get.
Is that what Santa told you? Cuz believing in that jolly old elf is just as rational as this alternate universe you've constructed for yourself. Both cops and the DHS have quotas, and busting anyone they can for deportation helps boost those numbers, even if they have to deport American citizens to do it.
While not "free stuff" there are a lot of Tax Payer resources that are available, expressly for Undocumented people, that I do not qualify for, such as legal support and help.
That was you in Missouri in 2003, wasn't it? Immigrants without documents subsidize your ignorant ass by paying into benefits they will never try to collect on, least they get deported.
And quite frankly illegal immigration is affecting the suppression of wages
Responsibility for which you are laying at the feet of businesses and capitalists eager to exploit these workers, yes?

No, censorship takes practice like any other skill
"Getting it right" depends on what they're trying to get right. TheIntercept.com tells us "Facebook Is Collaborating With the Israeli Government to Determine What Should Be Censored" and Glenn Greenwald told us about these problems before as did Richard Stallman and Eben Moglen before Greenwald (the latter two rightly calling Facebook "a monstrous surveillance engine" and the like). As Moglen points out in every one of his speeches in the past few years (if not longer) that "Stallman was right". But back to your point about how Facebook should stop trying to "get it right" as Facebook's rep says: These are precisely the problems any censor faces when trying to figure out the details of what should be censored; the implicit assumption being that censorship is right & proper to do, and is merely a matter of haggling over price (be it money or favors with the powerful) as the old joke goes.

Re:Why are you people so worried about this?
Unless you're clearly up to no good, you don't have to worry about spyware like this.
You mean up to no good like Angela Merkel, Chirac, Sarkozy and Hollande the last three French presidents, and 35 world leaders?
But of course you don't need to be a celebrity or a politician to be up to no good. You could be trying to help people through a humanitarian organization like the Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders, , or you could just have said something bad about the government of a minor island, etc.
And even if you're not one of the above 'bad people', you could simply be one of the 90% of people who are collateral surveillance victims. So no, you don't need to be up to no good to be under surveillance and that's something to be concerned about.

Re:TOR's already looking different, Nick.
I closed my node after reading those news. Jacob is a very outspoken enemy of the surveillance state. His speech To protect and infect part 2 was one of the best about the Snowden revelations.
Jacob was expelled from Tor based on several types of accusations made in a website, including rape, intense kisses and crude language (they went for all the audiences). His friends here sort of expelled too when they didn't believe all the accusations or pointed some of them were false (indirectly by claiming they were covering for a rapist and making personal attacks). They went after his other businesses and his doctorate too. It was textbook character assassination.
Write a blog purpoting to be one of their victims
Email/text their colleagues, neighbours, friends etcFor those who are interested on what happened to Jacob former face of Tor that is also involved with Wikileaks:
The weaponising of social (Analysis from some person on the internet)
What has this man done? (On the German Magazine Zeit online - in English)"I am not a victim of Jake," she told Die Zeit. She says she told a friend about the intense kiss in confidence. This story was not merely used on the website without her permission – she says the story was also "heavily manipulated."
I should warn that they are very long reads.
Now there is an "ex-cia" agent working on Tor.
The person responsible for a questionable website with at least some false accusations and the exit of several developers holds a key position.
There is increased development on usage statistics (that does make sense and is a response on attacks being used against tor - I am being paranoid here, but I wasn't a paranoid enough before Snowden and was proven a fool).
Also, as much as I admire Schneier for his work and would like his addition if it was in other circumstances, something that always bothered me about him is that he always focused on the NSA violations against Americans and American companies. I don't remember him criticizing the NSA for spying on innocent foreigners and on other countries (despite international agreements and the fact that foreigners are people too), I would like to be shown otherwise, but if he did it was tangentially. His discourse has always been that they should do a better job at protecting American national security and companies (and not that such military powers shouldn't exist).

Stratfor is a bad example
By authorizing and inducing the hack of Stratfor we came to know about many things private companies and the government are doing (of course they are not going to answer for their crimes). They should encourage more people to commit crimes like invading and damaging companies like this.
Of course the rest of the FBI's entrapment activities is just for the worst of your country (and of the world with the "war on terror"). -
A Congressman Campaigns to “Stop the Madness
More than 60 Yemeni civilians have been killed in at least five attacks on civilian areas since the new bombing campaign began. On August 13, the coalition bombed a school in Haydan, Yemen, killing at least 10 children and injuring 28 more. Lieu released a statement two days later, harshly condemning the attack. “The indiscriminate civilian killings by Saudi Arabia look like war crimes to me. In this case, children as young as 8 were killed by Saudi Arabian air strikes,” he wrote. “By assisting Saudi Arabia, the United States is aiding and abetting what appears to be war crimes in Yemen,” Lieu added. “The administration must stop enabling this madness now.” https://theintercept.com/2016/...

America: Please end realpolitik
For the last century America has engaged in realpolitik, propping up and supporting reprehensible regimes and tyrants like in Turkey. It always backfires. Today Hillary seeks Kissinger's endorsement as a super-statesman but the long term damage he did to America's reputation and the millions killed as a result are a stain on America's reputation. http://www.alternet.org/world/... https://theintercept.com/2016/...
Please America, end the realpolitik. Spread American values. Americans are not the only people in the world who deserve rights. -
Another walkout
That fits with the way people in large bureaucracy act when they feel they can only talk to the press. Given the US press is still constitutionally protected at least the wider public can have the "collect it all" domestic spying conversation that an internal bureaucracy never will.
The NSA will try and counter any more walk outs with more automation of the product lines to other agencies. Wider issues of more human security is then the final customers responsibility not with collection.
More of the buddy system (two workers at any site or for any task) insuring more contractors will be needed for the same amount of work.
Logging and tracking of all workers at work and in the community at all levels. Proactive collection on all US journalists by default rather than after publication.
i.e. an expansion of FIRSTFRUIT. "The Most Intriguing Spy Stories From 166 Internal NSA Reports" (May 17 2016)
https://theintercept.com/2016/...
Less of the artisan thinking to add value to the raw product line and more of a direct production line with a classic time and motion study on every worker all day, every day.
The GCHQ ideas shared with the US in the 1960-80's to ensure good working conditions for all staff could be fully reversed in the US.
How much more access to ongoing education, good wages, great conditions can cover for the domestic collection issue?
Give collection to the FBI and their experts can buy in more hardware, hire contractors, get upgrades. Compliment collection with skilled local staff to finally fully expand on all domestic investigations.
The interesting aspect is that other agencies could task directly to the CIA, FBI and over time the CIA and FBI could take up all the international and domestic work in house.
That could then see a change in flow of future budgets back to more productive traditional methods and make skilled staff very happy. Better control over budgets and a clear focus on all domestic or international collection missions. Staff get the new tools they need locally and depth of ongoing support in house.
A camaraderie, esprit de corps sets in given new cash, experts and missions not needing to slow down to try and seek constant outside agency support. -

Re:They haven't been watching too hard, apparently
Funny you mention the surveillance of courtrooms, when one of the many clearly illegal acts carried out by the NSA was monitoring privileged communications between American attorneys with Muslim Clients without acquiring an appropriate FISA warrant.
Then there's the targeted spying on personal details of romantic partners of NSA employees (do you really think they have no standing???), the warrantless collection of call metadata and content between US citizens within the US, mass data retention of private communications of innocent people clearly of no interest, spying on allied foreign heads of state and diplomats (in direct violation of US ratified treaties which are federal law), and sale of bulk surveillance data, including personal communications of innocent Americans, to foreign governments such as the UK and Israel. And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
You also conveniently have nothing to say about the actual subject of the story, which is not Snowden himself, but the fact that JW is advancing the absurd argument that anyone who merely depicts or reports on Snowden's actions (NOT even the content of the revelations) should have their First Amendment rights trampled.

Trump asks for what US has long done
As Glenn Greenwald of The Intercept reminds us, "Governments do spy on each other and do try to influence events in other countries, certainly the U.S. government has a very long and successful history of doing exactly that.". So hearing Americans, particularly Democrats, complain about Trump's request here reminds us the US has unclean hands and about far more important things than distracting us away from the ugliness the Democrats apparently sic on each other to win political races. Some of that increased ugliness includes voter shenanigans (possibly voter suppression) to make it harder for would-be Bernie Sanders voters to vote in the Democratic primary, collusion with news outlets to suppress unfavorable stories, and possible illegality from the DLC. These strike me as far more interesting considering the veracity of the DLC emails remains unchallenged.
The last thing the Democrats really want is people thinking about Hillary Clinton's voting record, or campaign funding sources. That analysis won't go down well with anti-war, pro-universal health care, pro-organized labor, anti-fracking, anti-TPP voters the Democrats seem to be losing. Such discussion might lead these voters to notice that the Democrats are apparently as interested as the Republicans in using a distractionary fear-based campaign against the only competition they're willing to admit to (no talk of Greens or Libertarians, for instance, people might defect or demand inclusive debates).

Democratic Party lying?
A video edit comparing what Hillary Clinton claimed to what James Comey claimed after the FBI investigation highlights the distance between the two quite well and puts a fine point on the part where Comey says that if this had been anyone else who did what she did they might not get the same cushy response from the FBI she got.
And keep in mind that the US has very unclean hands here, according to Edward Snowden, former NSA contractor who would know what tools the NSA has available to look into this.
But of course the veracity of the documents leads us to the real story. Nobody claims the DNC emails were faked, just like nobody said the Snowden revelations were untrue. This helps us focus on what those documents show: Bernie Sanders was not lying to us when he said, "I told you a long time ago that theâ"that the DNC was not running a fair operation, that they were supporting Secretary Clinton.", and that he requests far too weak of a solution to remedy the problem (getting rid of Debbie Wasserman Schultz as chair of the DNC). And the emails show us that the DNC were telling amenable media outlets (such as NBC, if I recall correctly) which stories to not publish because they made someone they cared about look bad. Julian Assange's interview on Democracy Now is worth reading, it's quite revealing about how nasty the Clinton campaign is, sourcing the unnamed "experts" who told Robby Mook, Clinton campaign manager, that "Russian state actors broke into the DNC, stole these emails" and "are releasing these emails for the purpose of actually helping Donald Trump".
