Storbritannien tog del av NSA:s internetavlyssning och spiondata
Nu kommer uppgifter om att även brittiska myndigheter ska ha fått uppgifter ur det amerikanska hemliga programmet för övervakning av flera it-jättars servrar.Enligt tidningen The Guardian har den brittiska motsvarigheten till svenska FRA, GCHQ, sedan i alla fall 2010 haft tillgång till det topphemliga amerikanska övervaknings systemet PRISM, där amerikanska säkerhetstjänster ska ha övervakat servrarna hos nio av världens största internetbolag, bland dem Microsoft, Facebook, Google och Apple.
Ett system som ska ha gett tillgång till e-mail, videor och bilder lagrade på servrarna.*
Tidningen säger sig ha dokument som bevisar att bara förra året fick GCHQ nästan 200 rapporter ur systemet. Genom att gå omvägen via USA har de brittiska myndigheterna kringgått Storbritanniens lagstiftning som kräver en formell juridisk process innan sådana uppgifter hämtas in.

Israeli Involvement in NSA Spying
June 9, 2013Activist Post
It doesn't surprise. On June 8, Haaretz headlined "What was the Israeli involvement in collecting US communications intel for NSA?" More on that below.On April 3, 2012, James Bamford headlined "Shady Companies with Ties to Israel Wiretap for US for the NSA."
He said NSA chief General Keith Alexander's "having a busy year." He's "cutting ribbons at secret bases and bringing to life the agency’s greatly expanded eavesdropping network."
In January he dedicated the new $358 million CAPT Joseph J. Rochefort Building at NSA Hawaii, and in March he unveiled the 604,000-square-foot John Whitelaw Building at NSA Georgia.It's for around "4,000 earphone-clad intercept operators, analysts and other specialists, many of them employed by private contractors."
Spies "R" Us defines US policy. NSA's "mammoth 1-million-square-foot, $2 billion Utah Data Center is far more sweeping."
It's located at Camp Williams. It's a Utah National Guard training facility. Once fully operational, says Bamford, it'll "become, in effect, the NSA Cloud."
It'll receive data from NSA satellites, overseas listening posts, and nationwide multiple telecom facility monitoring rooms. What's planned is an unprecedented global spy network.
NSA operatives and hackers will harvest around 2.1 million gigabytes of data per hour. It'll do so on the world's most powerful computer.
It's called Titan Supercomputer. It can handle over 20,000 trillion calculations per second or 20 petaflops. One petaflop = one quadrillion instructions per second.
Supercomputer power will be used to collect and analyze foreign and domestic communications from all possible sources.
Two Israeli companies are involved. High-tech firms Verint and Narus have longstanding US/Israeli intelligence connections. For many years, Verint was a majority-owned Comverse Technology subsidiary.
Both companies have about half their employees in Israel. In August 2012, Verint acquired Comverse. It now operates independently.
It makes security software. It calls itself "a global leader in Actionable Intelligence solutions."
Narus calls itself a cybersecurity company. It's an independent Boeing subsidiary. It provides real-time network traffic and analytics software. It does so with enterprise class spyware capabilities.[...]

NSA telephone, Internet spying data shared with British Intelligence
RT 2013-06-07Data covertly collected by the US National Security Agency (NSA) from American telecom and Internet firms has been shared with its British counterpart, media reports revealed.
Britain’s Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) has been given information gathered in the US-run PRISM system, which grants the American spy agency a direct line to data stored on the servers of Google, Facebook, Apple, Yahoo and five other tech giants.
Documents obtained by the Guardian revealed that the GCHQ has had access to PRISM since at least June 2010, having generated 197 intelligence reports from it last year. Access to the information has allowed the British electronic eavesdropping and security agency to bypass the formal legal process required to obtain such information from a non-UK-based company.
Throughout PRISM’s seven-year existence, operatives at the NSA and FBI have collected email, video and voice chat, videos, photos, voice-over-IP (Skype) chats, file transfers and social networking details, with the ostensible purpose of thwarting terror attacks.
In a statement to the Guardian, the GCHQ insisted it "takes its obligations under the law very seriously." Apple, Google, Yahoo, Microsoft and Facebook have all publically disavowed knowledge of PRISM or any cooperation with the program.
The GCHQ was further provided access to so-called “telephony metadata” culled from the telephone records of millions of US customers of Verizon – one of the largest telecommunication companies in the United States – current and former US intelligence officials familiar with the operation told the Daily Beast.
Intelligence sources revealed that in a few cases, the NSA had shared unedited analysis of the metadata with the GCHQ. However, British nationals were reportedly not allowed to sit at the physical terminals where NSA analysts mined metadata.
“My understanding is if the British had a phone number, we might run the number through the database for them and provide them with the results,” said one former senior US intelligence official with knowledge of the program.
The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance (FISA) Court granted both the NSA and the FBI unfettered access to the metadata from April 25 to July 19 of this year. This data does not reveal the actual content of the telephone conversations or the names of the participants on either line, though the numbers dialed – as well as the time and duration of the calls – are included.
Late Thursday, James Clapper, Director of National Intelligence in the US, decried the leaks on the programs as “reprehensible.”
