Interesting article on the quandaries and conundrums about how to make
the internet more secure. Take the advice of the CIA or Julian Assange
and Wikileaks...pay for it even? And just because classified
information is made public doesn't mean to say that the elephant's
takeover of the room should become visible in law. Did North Korea do
the hacking after all? Is it the Chinese or the Russians who are
responsible for hacking into large corporations and the party political
organisations of the United States. After all, the USA and 5 eyes plays
fair and are democratic organisations, and wouldn't dream of doing such
a thing to affect or influence elections in other countries.
And us non U.S. citizens can all rest assured and be pleased that the
CIA and NSA protect the privacy and personal data and do not do mass
surveillance or TAO's on individual US Citizens, and that GCHQ does mass
surveillance, all be it on a limited scale and well within English Law
on US citizens as well as its own citizens and every other nations
citizens. Still, that is what spies and spying is all about. Perhaps
Assange should try selling the stuff back to the C.I.A. or on to the
Russians to help pay for his defence in Sweden, as the US companies and
the USA government don't want to know.
Nothing at all about congratulating Assange and Wikileaks for exposing
serious weaknesses and flaws in CIA security procedures, or punishing
those in its own organisation with a couple of hundred years in a
security max prison for their felonies, far better to blame Wikileaks
and a slip up at some private security company which gets paid billions
for selling crap security products, systems and procedures.
Perhaps I will tweet President Trump and ask him what he thinks of it
all...on second thoughts, how can I do that...I am not a member of
twitter..found the joining procedures far too difficult for my simply
mind, especially when it came to the privacy documents...:-).
