The Slow Death of Privacy

Vodafone report highlights many governments\’ ease of spying on phone, email communications

Telecommunications company Vodafone\’s report on government surveillance of its customers in 29 countries reveals more than first meets the eye — and is raising questions from Dublin to Delhi about how much spying on email and telephone chats happens in secret.

• Vodafone’s wiretapping revelations explained

• NSA: Our systems are so complex we can’t stop them from deleting data wanted for lawsuit – The Washington Post

The NSA argued that holding onto the data would be too burdensome. \”A requirement to preserve all data acquired under section 702 presents significant operational problems, only one of which is that the NSA may have to shut down all systems and databases that contain Section 702 information,\”

wrote NSA Deputy Director Richard Ledgett in a court filing submitted to the court.

The complexity of the NSA systems meant preservation efforts might not work, he argued, but would have \”an immediate, specific, and harmful impact on the national security of the United States.\” Part of this complexity, Ledgett said, stems from privacy restrictions placed on the programs by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.

\”Communications acquired pursuant to Section 702 reside within multiple databases contained on multiple systems and the precise manner in which NSA stays consistent with its legal obligations under the [FISA Amendments Act] has resulted from years of detailed interaction\” with the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court and the Department of Justice, Ledgett wrote. NSA regularly purges data \”via a combination of technical and human-based processes,\” he said.

GUNS!!

Gunman in Las Vegas rampage was killed by police

Authorities had earlier said the woman shot and killed her husband before taking her own life. But Assistant Sheriff Kevin McMahill told reporters Wednesday that a review of forensic evidence at the scene and autopsy results showed that police fatally wounded the gunman.

\”We made a determination that she did not shoot him. He did suffer a gunshot wound, and we believe the entrance wound was here,\” McMahill said, pointing to his own collarbone.

In fact, he said, the fatal wound was delivered from a rifle fired by police. McMahill said three officers fired on the suspect.

\”We do not believe any of her shots hit him,\” he said.

After killing the officers, the couple covered the bodies with a cloth displaying the Gadsen, or \”Don\’t Tread On Me\” flag — a Revolutionary War-era symbol that has since been adopted by the tea party. Investigators also found swastikas at the suspects\’ apartment.
