You have to go back a few years but remember all the under water cables that were cut? And the US had the only company able to go in and magically fix them?

So he's gone from exposing domestic surveillance to exposing foreign intelligence operations. Against the country to which he appears to have defected. Can we stop pretending he's a techno-libertarian hero? He's Phillip Agee for the Bradley Manning generation.


Mmmm, read this

And China's government has technology in our telcom 'infrastructure'.

Like here:

It is easy for China to hack when the West uses their telcom equipment guaranteed backdoor.

Lol,I was only thinking the guy was trying to buy asylum, then I got to reading the posts about using this to pass more laws.

It's a bit disconcerting to say the least.

And you know the history behind Facebook. CIA funded there start up through InQtel. Well have you ever looked at China's Facebook? It is called Renren. When Facebook went public on the stock market and they all made billions Zuckerberg ran right off to China to celebrate. Well now some info on Renren.

Board of Directors

If you read some of the information on them you will see they mostly came from Boston or California.

Management Team

Same thing with the management team.

The US works with all these other countries on setting up spy programs.

How about Russia Facebook VK. They have Facebook software in it. Joey software.

At first this was all fine and dandy because it painted our government as untrustworthy to our people. Now that other countries are involved, the US (it's citizens) might get back-doored.

Possible scenario: Other countries distrust the US = spies in the states
Spies in the states = increased surveillance.

This could come full circle and completely screw everyone that are in support of him.

*edit: Hell it would screw everyone not in support of him too!

Good point but the entire reason they have been spying is due to worries of infiltration into the states. It does not make a difference at all if this is again realized - through an altered lense. It still doesn't make it ok to throw all the hay at them and allow them to look for the needle as they have been. It's a waste of our resources. They need to be more creative. Of course we all know the media forms opinions rather than informing of the facts only so who knows - it may very well be in the history books as how the people were too blind to see the obvious. If they continue surveillance of Americans as they have been after this it will be even more suspicious since this is an obsolete idea now.

Ok......this is weird. Why would he say this?




Is this man a plant? Is this a setup?...........I am really starting to wonder.


Make himself look more attractive to the chinese. More likely they will give him asylum as he has info on the USA's hacking habits.

About time someone with knowledge acknowledged this.

Perhaps the "chinese hacking USA stories" might stop.

Yes, that is what I got from this story. The most interesting thing to me is this confirms his location I guess? Also, now China might be mad, although they probably already knew this lol.
