  • Surveillance and Privacy in the Snowden Era
    MEDIANZ VOL 14 NO 2 • 2014 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11157/medianz-vol14iss2id119 - KEYNOTE - Surveillance and Privacy in the Snowden Era Nicky Hager1 Introduction The purpose of this paper is to give an overview of issues of mass surveillance, the subject that Edward Snowden has so spectacularly brought to world attention. Many readers will have been following the revelations closely, but general public understanding seems fairly confused and imprecise. Indeed, popular understanding of the Snowden revelations amounts to something like: ‘Everyone is being spied on all the time’, while the typical talk back radio host reply is: ‘I don't care if someone spies on me. If you've done nothing wrong, you've got nothing to hide’. There is also a perception that ‘It's always gone on’ and ‘everyone does it anyway’. All of these positions are wrong. I believe the more accurately we understand the issues of surveillance and privacy, the more clearly we can see where the harm is, what needs to change and how to effect this change. I will be discussing the history of electronic surveillance, the origins and growth of mass surveillance systems, what the Snowden leaks have revealed and their impact on the Internet and privacy. Finally I will discuss what we can do about it. Lessons from the history of electronic surveillance The Anglo-American spying system dates from WWII and was then put on a permanent footing in the late 1940s as part of the Cold War. A system of radio eavesdropping stations was dotted around the world as part of the intelligence war between the superpowers.

  • Documents Reveal Top NSA Hacking Unit -
    Druckversion - Inside TAO: Documents Reveal Top NSA Hacking Unit - ... http://www.spiegel.de/international/world/the-nsa-uses-powerful-toolbox... 12/29/2013 09:18 AM Inside TAO Documents Reveal Top NSA Hacking Unit By SPIEGEL Staff The NSA's TAO hacking unit is considered to be the intelligence agency's top secret weapon. It maintains its own covert network, infiltrates computers around the world and even intercepts shipping deliveries to plant back doors in electronics ordered by those it is targeting. In January 2010, numerous homeowners in San Antonio, Texas, stood baffled in front of their closed garage doors. They wanted to drive to work or head off to do their grocery shopping, but their garage door openers had gone dead, leaving them stranded. No matter how many times they pressed the buttons, the doors didn't budge. The problem primarily affected residents in the western part of the city, around Military Drive and the interstate highway known as Loop 410. In the United States, a country of cars and commuters, the mysterious garage door problem quickly became an issue for local politicians. Ultimately, the municipal government solved the riddle. Fault for the error lay with the United States' foreign intelligence service, the National Security Agency, which has offices in San Antonio. Officials at the agency were forced to admit that one of the NSA's radio antennas was broadcasting at the same frequency as the garage door openers. Embarrassed officials at the intelligence agency promised to resolve the issue as quickly as possible, and soon the doors began opening again.

The "massive data repository" is designed to cope with the large increase in digital data that has accompanied the rise of the global internet.[6] Contents Purpose Structure See also References External links Purpose The data center is able to process "all forms of communication, including the complete contents of private emails, cell phone calls, and Internet searches, as well as all types of personal data trails—parking receipts, travel itineraries, bookstore purchases, and other digital 'pocket litter'."[7] In response to claims that the data center would be used to illegally monitor email of U.S.

  • NSA Methoden 30.12.2013
    Die NSA hat eine geheime Abteilung, die Spezialausrüstung herstellt: Spähsoftware für Rechner und Handys, Mobilfunk-Horchposten, manipulierte USB-Stecker und unsichtbare Wanzen. Hier sehen Sie Auszüge aus dem hausinternen Bestellkatalog der Abteilung ANT - Preise inklusive. Wenn die NSA-Abteilung Tailored Access Operations (maßgeschneiderte Operationen, kurz TAO) ein Netzwerk oder einen Rechner infiltrieren möchte, wendet sie sich an ihre Technikspezialisten. Die entsprechende Einheit des US-Geheimdienstes wird hausintern ANT genannt. Vermutlich stehen die Buchstaben für Advanced Network Technology, denn was ANT herstellt, sind Angriffswaffen zur Penetration von Netzwerkausrüstung, zur Überwachung von Handys und Computern. ANT-Produkte helfen den NSA-Mitarbeitern dabei, überall dort einzudringen, Daten auszuleiten oder sie gar zu verändern, wo die herkömmlichen Methoden der NSA nicht ausreichen. Mehr über die Abteilung TAO, ihre Stärken und ihre Tricks lesen Sie in der aktuellen Ausgabe des SPIEGEL . Dem SPIEGEL liegt auch ein NSA-interner Katalog vor, in dem Ausrüstung der TAO-Abteilung ANT feilgeboten wird, Preise inklusive. Ein manipuliertes Monitorkabel etwa, dass es "TAO-Personal erlaubt zu sehen, was auf dem anvisierten Monitor angezeigt wird", gibt es demnach für 30 Dollar, eine "aktive GSM Basisstation", die es erlaubt, sich als Handy-Funkmast auszugeben, um so Mobiltelefone zu überwachen, für 40.000 Dollar. Eine als normaler USB-Stecker getarnte Computerwanze, die unbemerkt über eine Funkverbindung Daten senden und empfangen kann, kostet im Fünfzigerpack über eine Million Dollar. Solche Geräte benutzen übrigens nicht nur Geheimdienste - kürzlich etwa wurde ein Fall von Hightech- Drogenschmuggel im Hafen von Antwerpen bekannt, bei dem ebenfalls derart modifizierte USB-Stecker eine Rolle spielten . EU-Niederlassungen, Staatschefs, Telekommunikationskonzerne Das ANT-Arsenal wird keineswegs nur zur Verfolgung von Terrorverdächtigen eingesetzt, wie mittlerweile bekannt ist.

An informed discussion on the legality and constitutionality of the emerging cybersurveillance and mass dataveillance programs revealed by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden necessitates the furtherance of cybersurveillance aptitude. This Essay contends, therefore, that a detailed examination of the Snowden disclosures requires not just a careful inquiry into the legal and constitutional framework that guides the oversight of these programs.
