Yes, exactly. Valid criticism of stuff that doesn't work and is morally fucked up.
You have a problem with that? You want people to try to sell garbage and go unchallenged?
I have no problem with calling bullshit. Not at all. But if nothing is workable, government criminals have won, and we're fucked.
You, too, let me know when you guys start 'watching' and 'holding accountable' your 'representatives' aka your masters.
I'll be waiting for you to post the access credentials to phone companies, ISPs, datacenters and the like, so that we can start 'watching' the government just like they watch us.
That information is out there.
What information is out there?
Methods, exploits, vulnerabilities, account credentials, passwords, etc, etc, etc. I'm not into that shit, but I know that it's out there.
Are you missing the point on purpose? The networks are 'owned' by the government and friends, and there obviously is no fucking way for joe six pack to use their infrastructure to 'watch' his masters.
Yes, the networks are owned by governments and their friends. But that doesn't mean that they're unusable. Free agents do get pwned, for sure. But all too often, it's bad OPSEC that gets them. Loose lips, mostly. And yes, "joe six pack" isn't doing that. But once stuff has been put online, anyone can check it out.
But it doesn't get posted on open mail lists. Results are put online, via WikiLeaks, Cryptome, pastebins,
Not what I was getting at, not to mention, the amount of stuff that gets posted is (pretty) small.
What were you getting at? We've seen some amazing shit from Snowden. It's too bad that he was too patriotic to just drop the whole wad somewhere, however. So it goes.
etc. But once access info goes public, it becomes useless.
Of course. Like I said, the networks are owned by the government. Temporary glitches in security don't mean much, if anything.
You gotta take what you can get.
Oh, and let me know when the nsa really gets 'hacked' as opposed as having one employee betray them.
They've been betrayed several times, that we know of. Mostly it's for money, and we rarely hear about that, even when people get busted. Have you read James Bamford's books on the NSA?
