TED | M. Hypponen - How the NSA betrayed the world's trust

Recent events have highlighted, underlined and bolded the fact that the United States is performing blanket surveillance on any foreigner whose data passes through an American entity -- whether they are suspected of wrongdoing or not. This means that, essentially, every international user of the internet is being watched, says Mikko Hypponen. -- TED

I considered something along the line, but I couldn't put a name on the entity in question, if there is one to begin with.

It's not just the US, it's also the UK; it's not just US + UK, it's Five Eyes; it's not just Five Eyes, it's Nine Eyes; it's not just Nine Eyes, it's Nine Eyes + countries eager to join (e.g. GER) -- and we're not even talking about Russia or the PROC.

Ah, well. We got rid of a surveillance state twice, we can do it again.

Very good speech from Hyppönen, once again. It's funny that thru the years, his english pronunciation hasn't improved a lot.. For those that don't know, he's F-Secure spokesperson (and i guess innovator too, he's been there from the start, too bad their products are crap but with out them we would have no security at all..) They made some important inventions in the mid-90s.Some of them CIA fought with tooth and nails like 128bit encryptions claiming it's a security risk if USA can not intercept every signal they get (yes, this problem is OLD...) but F-Secure and other companies, ISPs, everyone were united in this issue and those security measures are now a commonplace...

The one sure-fire way to send the machine into her death-throes, nobody and no one wants to engage: STOP USING THEIR PRODUCTS. This goes for every false system we suffer that gains it's power and momentum from people believing in it like some devotee to any religion.

Balls grow back when the power we have already have is wielded COLLECTIVELY. Only then can earthlings (humans being) begin to conduct mansion-to-mansion Pogroms.
