Edward Snowden spy leaks: only 1% of files published

Publicerad den 3 dec 2013
Alan Rusbridger, the editor of The Guardian, reveals that only one per cent of intelligence files leaked by US whistleblower Edward Snowden have been published by the newspaper.

Appearing before the Home Affairs Select Committee, Alan Rusbridger said Edward Snowden, a former contractor with the National Security Agency (NSA) handed 58,000 files to four places - The Guardian, Washington Post, a location in Rio de Janeiro and a location in Germany.

Mr Rusbridger and The Guardian have faced criticism for publishing details of the activities of the UK's listening post GCHQ and its US counterpart the NSA. But in a heated evidence session, Mr Rusbridger said he and his colleagues at The Guardian were "patriots".

When questioned by Committee chairman Keith Vaz MP about how much had been published, the editor replied: "We continue to publish stuff, it's about one per cent of what we were given."

Asked where the remaining files were, he said: "This is an ongoing story we are writing.
If you think it's sensible I talk about where the exact files are I can write to you. But I'm not sure that's really sensible to talk about the existence of other files in other bits of the world."

Mr Rusbridger said the files were distributed across four continents to different organisations, with The Guardian holding one file jointly with the New York Times in the US. Asked whether the remaining 99 per cent of files not published were in a secure place, the editor replied: "I believe that to be true."

    NSA tracking cellphone locations worldwide, Snowden documents show

    The National Security Agency is gathering nearly 5 billion records a day on the whereabouts of cellphones around the world, according to top-secret documents and interviews with U.S. intelligence officials, enabling the agency to track the movements of individuals — and map their relationships — in ways that would have been previously unimaginable.

    The records feed a vast database that stores information about the locations of at least hundreds of millions of devices, according to the officials and the documents, which were provided by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden. New projects created to analyze that data have provided the intelligence community with what amounts to a mass surveillance tool.

  2. -CIA's anti-terrorism effort called 'colossal flop'-

    Source: LA Times - December 10, 2013

    Several years ago, a senior officer in the CIA clandestine service attended a closed-door conference for overseas operatives. Speakers included case officers who were working in the manner Hollywood usually portrays spies — out on their own.

    Most CIA officers abroad pose as U.S. diplomats. But those given what's called non-official cover are known as NOCs, pronounced "knocks," and they typically pose as business executives. At the forum, the NOCs spoke of their cover jobs, their false identities and measures taken to protect them. Few said much about gathering intelligence.

    A colleague passed a caustic note to the senior officer. "Lots of business," it read. "Little espionage."

    Twelve years after the CIA began a major push to get its operatives out of embassy cubicles and into foreign universities, businesses and other local perches to collect intelligence on terrorists and rogue nations, the effort has been a disappointment, current and former U.S. officials say. Along with other parts of the CIA, the budget of the so-called Global Deployment Initiative, which covers the NOC program, is now being cut.

    "It was a colossal flop," a former senior CIA official said in sentiments echoed by a dozen former colleagues, most of whom spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a classified program.
