WikiLeaks releases Vault 7!

Press conf under attack: Facebook+Periscope video used by WikiLeaks' editor Julian Assange have been attacked. Activating contingency (1/2)

They just released passphrase. Assuming they are now skipping press conference.

pw is out - SplinterItIntoAThousandPiecesAndScatterItIntoTheWinds

lets see what it is.

it looks like some kind of system folder structure from a techies workstation so far...

This is what was suppose to be from the press conference. They are saying it was under attack so this is plan "b."

Gives a good idea what is in the dump and what you will be basically digging through.

Overview of release

Reported seconds after release from LA Republica

But not at all. We are sitting in the living room to enjoy a movie. A smart tv stands in our living room and we are there in the privacy of our home, we talk or we dine, we are confident, convinced that no one can scratch that our moment. But no. The files reveal that since 2014, the CIA is able to implant malicious software (malware) in the smart TV connected to the web. The model explicitly mentioned in the documents is one of the most famous brands. The malware allows the Agency to capture conversations that take place within the room in which is located the screen. It 'the first certainty of exploitation for the purpose of invasion of privacy of' 'internet of things': the number of appliances and devices we use in everyday life and are no longer "stupid" objects simply connected to an electric wire but they have sensors and programs to make them work in Internet. The same network that makes them intelligent, also makes them vulnerable to spies.

They must of had advance access to the info.

Anyone else in the files?

looking at the images dump its full of scripting screens, small jpgs pulled off the internet and networks created via visio or something..

it looks like he worked for:



as there are plenty of the logo scattered in the images

There's some kind of large intranet folder full of web pages that the bulk of the data is in.. taking a while to process

from RT:

WikiLeaks publishes 'entire hacking capacity of the CIA'

If the dump is only in regards to how the gov't spies on its citizens with no limits than meh.

Seriously , you have to be under a rock to not be already aware of this and the ones that aren't aware they could care less within 3-2-1 seconds, SQUIRREL.

Not diminishing the wkileaks, but people just don't give a damn about their privacy.

Very true but with proof out in the open it will be hard for them to do such things in the future i for one will be looking at my tv with suspicion lol

a reply to: interupt42

They need to release AV software that can detect the malware in smart phones and smart TV's.

The article makes mention of information directly related to Italian government also. But I agree at this point we should assume privacy has gone by way of the dodo.

so basically they are dropping a bomb as year zero indicates this will effectively reset everything and we have to start again

This appears to be of great concern:

Recently, the CIA lost control of the majority of its hacking arsenal including malware, viruses, trojans, weaponized "zero day" exploits, malware remote control systems and associated documentation. This extraordinary collection, which amounts to more than several hundred million lines of code, gives its possessor the entire hacking capacity of the CIA.

You know, according to the video I posted earlier, they advise WL of being CIA and they (CIA) are running interference to Anon's Vault 7 (7th flr shadow group) initiative.

That leak sucked.

That was always a concern and likelyhood of what could likely happen, but the temptation and reward was to great to pass up on.

The other thing that is not talked about is the hardware backdoors that could exist within many of our foreign manufactured chips which can go on our defense systems. Those backdoors wouldn't be put in there by the US gov't (ie china) . There is no way to adequately test billions to trillions of transistors in chips to be certain that it doesn't or hasn't happened. However, the cheap manufacturing and cost savings was to great of temptation as well to pass up.

BE, you are on target.
Its not the smoking gun.

Although, the redacted list of targets in the U.S. may lead to a little fireworks, the rest is not much.

I don't think so, actually I think it will do the opposite. It will make it easier for them to do it even more in the future, because the public will be so immune to it.

People could care less about invasion of privacy, heck they are already doing it to themselves and more than willing to do it for the convenience and social media aspects of it.

Plus Its only a matter time before people start buying toilets with camara and microphones in exchange for being able to upload to fb their 3rd poop for the day with no straining via their poopbit application.

So this is the first leak of many into Vault 7

Who stole the code and has it already been utilized, (nov8)

Who and Why?

a reply to: interupt42

Just like Snowden. The Wiki Intelligence Agency strikes again.
