  • How Laura Poitras Helped Snowden Spill His Secrets
    How Laura Poitras Helped Snowden Spill His Secrets Documentary filmmaker Laura Poitras in Berlin. By PETER MAASS Published: August 13, 2013 This past January, Laura Poitras received a curious e-mail from an anonymous stranger requesting her public encryption key. For almost two years, Poitras had been working on a documentary about surveillance, and she occasionally received queries from strangers. She replied to this one and sent her public key — allowing him or her to send an encrypted e-mail that only Poitras could open, with her private key — but she didn’t think much would come of it. The stranger responded with instructions for creating an even more secure system to protect their exchanges. Promising sensitive information, the stranger told Poitras to select long pass phrases that could withstand a brute-force attack by networked computers. “Assume that your adversary is capable of a trillion guesses per second,” the stranger wrote. Before long, Poitras received an encrypted message that outlined a number of secret surveillance programs run by the government. She had heard of one of them but not the others. After describing each program, the stranger wrote some version of the phrase, “This I can prove.” 1 From www.nytimes.com/2013/08/18/magazine/laura-poitras-snowden.html?hpw 20 August 2013 Seconds after she decrypted and read the e-mail, Poitras disconnected from the Internet and removed the message from her computer. “I thought, O.K., if this is true, my life just changed,” she told me last month. “It was staggering, what he claimed to know and be able to provide.

As clients continue to improve and refine their operating models, they seek to push traditional boundaries, using advanced analytics and a deeper understanding of underlying costs and value drivers to move beyond tactical levers toward more innovative sourcing strategies and structural opportunities to improve organizational resilience to volatile external markets. Against this backdrop, leaders of sourcing strategy consulting possess several high-level commonalities.

  • The Views of the U.S. Left and Right on Whistleblowers Whistleblowers on Right and U.S
    The Views of the U.S. Left and Right on Whistleblowers Concerning Government Secrets By Casey McKenzie Submitted to Central European University Department of International Relations and European Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Professor Erin Kristin Jenne Word Count: 12,868 CEU eTD Collection Budapest Hungary 2014 Abstract The debates on whistleblowers in the United States produce no simple answers and to make thing more confusing there is no simple political left and right wings. The political wings can be further divided into far-left, moderate-left, moderate-right, far-right. To understand the reactions of these political factions, the correct political spectrum must be applied. By using qualitative content analysis of far-left, moderate-left, moderate-right, far-right news sites I demonstrate the debate over whistleblowers belongs along a establishment vs. anti- establishment spectrum. CEU eTD Collection i Acknowledgments I would like to express my fullest gratitude to my supervisor, Erin Kristin Jenne, for the all the help see gave me and without whose guidance I would have been completely lost. And to Danielle who always hit me in the back of the head when I wanted to give up.

  • Julia Reichert and the Work of Telling Working-Class Stories
    FEATURES JULIA REICHERT AND THE WORK OF TELLING WORKING-CLASS STORIES Patricia Aufderheide It was the Year of Julia: in 2019 documentarian Julia Reichert received lifetime-achievement awards at the Full Frame and HotDocs festivals, was given the inaugural “Empowering Truth” award from Kartemquin Films, and saw a retrospec- tive of her work presented at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. (The International Documentary Association had already given her its 2018 award.) Meanwhile, her newest work, American Factory (2019)—made, as have been all her films in the last two decades, with Steven Bognar—is being championed for an Academy Award nomination, which would be Reichert’s fourth, and has been picked up by the Obamas’ new Higher Ground company. A lifelong socialist- feminist and self-styled “humanist Marxist” who pioneered independent social-issue films featuring women, Reichert was also in 2019 finishing another film, tentatively titled 9to5: The Story of a Movement, about the history of the movement for working women’srights. Yet Julia Reichert is an underrecognized figure in the contemporary documentary landscape. All of Reichert’s films are rooted in Dayton, Ohio. Though periodically rec- ognized by the bicoastal documentary film world, she has never been a part of it, much like her Chicago-based fellow Julia Reichert in 2019.

  • Roland Berger Brand Perceptions 2016
    EXTRACT CLIENT AND BRAND INSIGHTS 2016 BRAND PERCEPTION SUMMARY ROLAND BERGER 2 About this brand perception summary The data contained in this summary represents the views of clients (senior end users of consulting services) as expressed to us via an online survey, more details of which you’ll find in the section entitled “methodology”. It does not represent the view of analysts. The interpretation of that data, however, is ours. It’s based on the unparalleled knowledge that we’ve acquired through years of surveying and interviewing consultants and their clients, and through the work we’ve done—and continue to do—advising the leaders of the world’s biggest and most successful consulting firms about their businesses. A full list of firms for which brand perception summaries are available can be found towards the back of this document. REPORT EXTRACT: non-exclusively licensed for internal use only 3 Methodology In December 2015 we surveyed 2,649 clients—senior end users of consulting services from around the globe, all of whom had made extensive use of consultants—and asked them to tell us about three Firms included in our global study and consulting firms of their choosing, giving us 9,278 responses in total. We asked about those firms’ how we classify them: capabilities, across a range of consulting services, about the extent to which they deliver value relative to the fees they charge, and about the attributes they associate with each firm. We also asked about the Accenture Technology likelihood of using a firm, whether they have recommended a firm, and if that firm is their first choice Aon Hewitt HR for each service.

In answering this I will focus on how public and political feelings prompted the conditions possible for the security forces to be doing what they do in todays world. In particular, I will be looking at the National Security Agency (NSA) in the United States (US) and some of the revelations brought forward by Edward Snowden in 2013, along with the scale of involvement of the United Kingdom’s (UK) Government Communication Headquarters (GCHQ). I will then look at some of the fundamental questions that surround the world of mass surveillance, such as the effectiveness of the programs that were acted upon by security agencies, who they were really looking for, and whether, in my eyes, their methods were morally right.
