Snowden: NSA Employees Routinely Pass Around Nude Photos Obtained Via Mass Surveillance

George Washington's picture




 

Edward Snowden just told the Guardian:

Snowden …. Made a startling claim that a culture exists within the NSA in which, during surveillance, nude photographs picked up of people in “sexually compromising” situations are routinely passed around.

NSA employees have also been caught using their mass surveillance powers to spy on love interests, such as girlfriends, obsessions or former wives … and to eavesdrop on American soldiers’ intimate conversations with their wives back home.

By way of background, US and UK intelligence services have gathered millions of webcam images … many nude.  The NSA collects and permanently retains many suggestive photographic images gathered in other ways. And top experts say the NSA is collecting the CONTENT of all of our phone calls and emails.

So NSA employees have access to a lot of nude or suggestive videos, photos, phone calls and emails.

It’s not just NSA … many government agencies have become corrupted.

For example, an employee of the Transportation Security Administration admitted that TSA agents share – and laugh at – nude scans of passengers.

And as we’ve  previously documented:

  • Senior SEC employees spent up to 8 hours a day surfing porn sites instead of cracking down on financial crimes
  • Nuclear Regulatory Commission workers watch porn instead of cracking down on unsafe conditions at nuclear plants
  • Investigators from the Treasury’s Office of the Inspector General found that some of the regulator’s employees surfed erotic websites, hired prostitutes and accepted gifts from bank executives … instead of actually working to help the economy
  • The Minerals Management Service – the regulator charged with overseeing BP and other oil companies to ensure that oil spills don’t occur – was riddled with “a culture of substance abuse and promiscuity”, which included “sex with industry contacts

So like I have a genital wart with a cauliflower-like head. It's on my dick on the left side. It's kind of weepy and smells yeasty. I tried to pull it off by pinching it and it did bleed but it came back. There's this itchy patch under my right testicle. Lately when I shit my dick rides up on the inside rim of the toilet seat, or maybe the piss stream is bouncing off my ball sack. Anyway, the result is piss goes out onto the floor between the bowl rim and the toilet seat. Back to the wart. I've been meaning to get somebody to look at it. Seems like, as a taxpayer, with so many interested observers, possibly the NSA could look at my dick wart? I'll take some pictures of that and my curiously leaky piss stream and the persistent blackish stain where my thigh rubs the toilet seat. Could you check to see how far out my hemorroid projects? If I put my go-pro in the toilet and shit, could you check? Thanks NSA.

Do you suppose they collect data about who watches porn sites to be used later for political blackmail?

YES:

The Associated Press notes:

The stockpiling of sexually explicit images of ordinary people had uncomfortable echoes of George Orwell’s “Nineteen
Eighty-Four,” where the authorities — operating under the aegis of “Big Brother” — fit homes with cameras to monitor the intimate details of
people’s home lives.

The collection of nude photographs also raise questions about potential for blackmail.
America’s National Security Agency has already acknowledged that half a dozen analysts have been caught trawling databases for inappropriate
material on partners or love interests. Other leaked documents have revealed how U.S. and British intelligence discussed leaking
embarrassing material online to blacken the reputations of their targets.

And Bill Binney – the high-level NSA executive who created the agency’s mass surveillance program for digital information, a 32-year NSA veteran widely regarded as a “legend” within the agency, the senior technical director within the agency and managed thousands of NSA employees, an expert on spying by the Soviets, interviewed by virtually all of the mainstream media, including CBS, ABC, CNN, New York Times, USA Today, Fox News, PBS and many others – told Washington’s Blog:

This is just one of the ways to make controlling people possible.  Standard KGB/Stasi tactics.

That blackmail angle will only work for so long on certain people.. Honestly, what people post of themselves on youtube alone says next gen won't GAF. My money is still on the collosal amount of tax dollars we are spending to subsidize the biggest circle jerk in history. No WAY that flies, no f'ing way.  People will mumble and shuffle about privacy but MONEY...seems like people could get behind that

Was thinking pretty much the same thing...

And...

WTF, how many pictures of guys doing shit with their dicks does a NSA operative have to see before it gets old? Before they explore their latent gay tendencies? Before they start to copy and admire and digitally stalk the most bizarre and extreme of chicken chokers?

And...

The NSA work environment must be a cross between a low brow frat house, a church lady gossip circle and revenge of the nerds... A real giggle factory. There is a segment of the population that loves that shit... It's fucking Peeping Tom Syndrome meets Kim Kardashian's ass with a loaf of french bread protruding from it.

Because they could go on and kill me.

You spy on anyone that could cause you problems... better yet if you KNOW the skeletons in THEIR closets BEFORE they'er even in a position to cause trouble.......   Spitzer was actually doing a good job in holding financial execs accountable.... BOOM

That evil little cross-dresser J. Edgar Hoover used to jerk off to photos delivered to him by his FBI agents all the time. He had a major movie star porn collection. Loved to watch boys in action most of all. Warped sexuality is part of the spying mentality.

Hey George Washington. Why did you forget about the Pentagon looking at Child Porn? (The NSA works for the Pentagon, after all. )
