Question of bias

As of now the very biased reactions of senior American officials are prominently displayed as "effects." The effects cannot be tabulated factually at this point - passing off the reactions of American officials involved in the scandals as fact seems very problematic. As it exists now I suggest that portions of the reactions to Edward Snowden that were not negative be moved into the "effects" section and the section be renamed "reactions."

Twitter

It is interesting to note that Twitter is providing its public tweets to the Library of Congress. And announced this in a press release.^[1]^[2]^[3]

The NSA wiretapped French diplomats in the US

"There is a two page memo dated 10 September 2010. It is an internal technical document classified as 'top secret', intended for NSA operators who use the interception tools of the powerful American agency on a daily basis. It enables technicians not to get lost in the maze of codes and acronyms in use in the biggest intelligence agency in the country. But hidden behind the apparently harmless line-up of figures and abbreviations we find the centre of the electronic war."

"We discover here the proof of the existence of the GENIE programme, one of the most topical in the NSA: the remote delivery of spyware "to computers. On American soil, this mode of interception is called US-3136, for targets outside American it is known as US-3137."

"The document specifies the techniques used to spy on the communications of the French diplomats: 'Highlands' for pirating computers using remotely delivered cookies; 'Vagrant' for capturing information from screens; and finally PBX"

"A document dated August 2010, sheds light more specifically on the centres of interest of the United States through this remote espionage. Issued by the Signal Intelligence Directorate (SID), it states that the confidential information thus stolen from foreign chanceries, and in particular from France, played a major role in obtaining the vote, on 9 June 2010, of a resolution imposing new sanctions on Iran for not respecting its obligations concerning its nuclear programme."

A new Top Secret document is disclosed by Le Monde with short descriptions of NSA "Close Access SIGADS" : HIGHLANDS, VIAGRANT, OCEAN, LIFESAVER, BLACKHEART, DEWSWEEPER, RADON, DROPMIRE...
