Though some were content with official justification as a matter of national security, many more were concerned with the implications these oversight abilities had on individual privacy and the possibility of a surveillance state. Using information released on the document disclosures from 2013 to 2015, the following thesis researches the impact mass surveillance practices and signals intelligence have had on the concept of national security and analyzes how democracies utilize signals intelligence data to fulfill their national security goals. This thesis focuses on the current national security strategies of the United States and United Kingdom, comparing each nation’s usage of signals intelligence, post-Snowden actions, and subsequent domestic response. Based off of these findings, this thesis analyzes and critiques the current strategy of mass surveillance practices as utilized by democratic states, proposes policies to promote better practices, and discusses the concept of individual privacy in the context of national security.

Wahlperiode SV— A7/4£ introduction MAT A zu A-Drs: (-5-92 I wish to thank the Committee of Inquiry for giving me an opportunity to testify. My work is focussed around human rights and signals intelligence. For the last year I have acted as Director of the Don't Spy On Us coalition of UK NGOs campaigning for the reform of surveillance laws. Prior to that I was Deputy Director of Privacy International. I represent neither of those entities today, and instead appear in my own capacity as an independent expert. I understand the Committee has received evidence on the recent changes to UK surveillance law with the passing of the Investigatory Powers Act 2016. I also understand the Committee has heard from witnesses on the state of UK-based litigation from numerous parties, including Privacy International, relating to a range of surveillance capabilities revealed by Edward Snowden. I do not wish to duplicate that evidence. I have noted an interest on behalf of the Committee regarding the so-called Five Eyes "no- spy pact", sof will use this opportunity to set out very briefly a summary of my research in this narrow area and its relevance to the intelligence sharing partnerships of which Germany is a part. 1. The original 1943 UK - USA Agreement does not expressly create a no spy pact Beginning in 1946, an alliance of five countries (the US, the UK, Australia, Canada and New Zealand, also known as Second Parties), developed a series of bilateral agreements over more than a decade that became known as the UKUSA agreement, establishing the Five Eyes alliance for the purpose of sharing intelligence, primarily signals intelligence.

  • Briefing – UK-US Intelligence Sharing Arrangements
    62 Britton Street London, EC1M 5UY, Great Britain https://www.privacyinternational.org +44(0) 20 3422 4321 Briefing – UK-US Intelligence Sharing Arrangements Urgent transparency is needed regarding the UK’s intelligence sharing arrangements with the United States, which allows UK and US agencies to share, by default, any raw intelligence and methods and techniques related to the acquisition of such intelligence. In a recent YouGov poll, three quarters of Britons said that they want the UK Government to tell the public what safeguards govern these arrangements. Privacy International urges the Government to improve public understanding about the scope of intelligence sharing with the US and the safeguards and oversight currently in place. JULY 2017 Background While the 2015 National Security Strategy and Strategic Defence and Security Review has referenced an “intelligence sharing partnership” with the US, details about the scope of these arrangements as well as the relevant safeguards and oversight mechanisms are currently not publicly available. The original UK-US Communication Intelligence Agreement (“UKUSA Agreement”) - drafted shortly after World War II - allows UK and US agencies to share, by default, any raw intelligence and methods and techniques related to the acquisition of such intelligence.i A 1955 revision of the UKUSA Agreement is the most recent version of the agreement to have been made public. Both communications methods as well as the nature of signals intelligence have changed dramatically since 1955. Over the last few years, information about the nature and scope of the surveillance conducted pursuant to the Five Eyes alliance has been disclosed to the public.

  • Global Surveillance Network
    GCHQ and UK Mass Surveillance Chapter 4 4 A Global Surveillance Network 4.1 Introduction The extent of the collaboration between British and American signal intelligence agencies since World War II was long suspected, but it has been incontrovertibly exposed by Edward Snowden. The NSA and GCHQ operate so closely that they resemble a single organisation in many aspects, with an extremely close relationship with the other three members of the Five Eyes pact: Canada, Australia, New Zealand. Since the end of the Cold War, the network of collaboration around the Five Eyes has grown to the point where we can speak of a global surveillance complex with most countries willing to be part of the club. According to security experts, this is driven by the same network effects that create the Google monopoly.i Given that many details of these arrangements remain secret, it is hard to see how parliament and courts in one country can ever hope to rein them in. This creates practical problems for understanding the extent of intrusiveness of any surveillance, because we do not know who has access to the information. It is possible that US agencies that work closely with the NSA, such as the FBI, have access to more information from GCHQ than British police. In the other direction, the UK intelligence services are not constrained by any publicly available legislation in obtaining unsolicited intercepted material from other countries, even where the communications in question belong to people within the UK. But despite these levels of collaboration, the US takes an exceptionalist approach to rights, where citizens from other countries are not given sufficient legal protections from surveillance.
