THE NSA AND SURVEILLANCE MADE SIMPLE ANIMATION

Now that nearly all of us are online/in line connected or digital in some way spies/spices are

no longer watching just one or two bad boys/guys. Instead the UK and US government are

both/ bold collecting massive amounts/amount of information/informations from the things

we do on our cell phones/phones and over the internet.

How do they do it?

his name
There are two main ways they get hold of this information. One way is working with the

companies that won/run these systems and tap the cables that are vital/viral for moving all

this information around.

They can then sift through the huge amount of data they bother/gather and all the messages

that are there and store/stock them in massive computer databases.

Their other technique evolves/involves using their relationships with technology companies

to get hold of things like emails messages or other information straight from the US service.

What do they do with it?

The spy agencies do fade away/throw away most of the content they collect. They keep their

online systems for about three days then discard everything that's not from one of their targets;

Metadata though who/whom sent a message who it was too when it was sent and more is a

different matter. The agency's keep almost all the metadata they see for around a month in the

UK and up to a year in the U.S.

What do this all mean?

That lets them build up profiles of millions of people who talks to who knows who and

where/when people are neatly. These revelations pose many questions what is the balance

between our right to privacy/piracy and the authorities duty to protect us. Governments in

America and the US/UK argue that these surveillance programs help keep us safe from

terrorism but what happens if you're wrongly accused? and should we just accept that the
internet is now a different place run by businesses and governments who can monitor it how

they liked;

Now that you know you're being washed/watched how does that change your behavior ,how

you talk to your friends and how much you trust the world around you .These revelations have

changed the internet for us forever. Does privacy have a future online at all ?

Edward Snowden’s Biography in a Nutshell!


Jan 17, 2017

Computer wizard. Cyberstrategist. Whistleblower. Champion of data privacy and


internet freedom. Self-professed patriot. Wanted in the U.S. for espionage… Here’s
Edward Snowden’s bio in a nutshell.

Early Years

Edward Joseph Snowden was born in 1983 in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, into a
family where everybody worked for the federal government in some capacity. In tenth
grade, Snowden stopped attending high school when he came down with
he must stop he's study because he get mononucle
mononucleosis.

Instead of returning to finish school, he began taking classes at the local community
college and became engrossed in computers, technology, the internet, and Japanese
anime culture. In 2004, he joined the United States Army Reserve, but was soon
discharged after breaking both of his legs five months into special-forces training.

Cybersecurity Career

Snowden’s career as a security specialist began in 2005, when he worked as a security


guard for the University of Maryland’s Center for Advanced Study of Language. In
2006, he was hired by the CIA in Langley, Virginia. One year later, the CIA posted him
in Geneva to maintain computer network security.

In 2009, he resigned from the CIA to work as a private contractor: first for Dell, and
then for Booz Allen Hamilton. As a contractor, Snowden worked in Tokyo, Maryland,
and finally Hawaii, where he began the work that would ultimately make him one of
America’s most polarizing figures.
Stealing NSA Documents

While working at the NSA office in Hawaii in 2013, Snowden grew increasingly
disturbed by how the NSA was spying on ordinary citizens through their phone and
Internet data. He began compiling a dossier filled with information on the NSA’s mass
surveillance practices. He then contacted documentary filmmaker Laura Poitras, as
well as journalists Glenn Greenwald, Ewen MacAskill, and Barton Gellman, enlisting
them to leak the documents he had collected.

In May 2013, Snowden told his bosses he needed to take a medical leave of absence
to deal with his recently diagnosed epilepsy. On May 20, 2013, Snowden flew to Hong
Kong and braced himself for what was to come.

The Leaks

On June 5, 2013, The Guardian leaked documents demonstrating that Verizon was
sharing all of its user data with the NSA. The next day, The Guardian and The
Washington Times broke the story about PRISM, an NSA surveillance program that
allows the NSA to collect internet data from its citizens through their online activity on
he
products and applications by Microsoft, Yahoo, Google, and Apple, to name a few.

These were just the first in a series of incriminating leaks by worldwide media outlets
revealing the numerous mass surveillance programs by not only the NSA but also its
global partners.

Aftermath

On June 9, 2013, Snowden revealed his identity through The Guardian, stating, “I have
no intention of hiding who I am because I know I have done nothing wrong.”

Several days later, U.S. federal prosecutors charged Snowden with theft of
government property, plus two counts of violating the U.S. Espionage Act:
unauthorized communication of national defense information and willful
communication of classified intelligence with an unauthorized person.

Snowden remained in Hong Kong for one month, until, with the aid of WikiLeaks, he
set out to flee to Ecuador via Russia and Cuba. When his flight arrived in Russia,
however, U.S. officials revoked his passport, preventing him from continuing on in his
journey. Snowden has since remained in Russia, where he was initially granted
temporary asylum, and then, in August 2014, a three-year residency permit.

Snowden’s Legacy

Whether you think Snowden is a patriot or a traitor, one thing’s for sure: Snowden’s
NSA leaks have encouraged the public to really think about our right to privacy in a
digital age.
