New leaks for NSA by Edward Snowden

A team of nine journalists, with Jacob Appelbaum and Laura Poitras just published another huge from the files leaked by Edward Snowden. The classified documents were published in Der Spiegel magazine, and show that the National Security Agency (NSA) and its allies are methodically preparing for future wars to be waged over the Internet.

Der Spiegel reports that the secret services have the ability to infiltrate and disable computer networks - which allows them to disrupt basic utilities and other infrastructure. And the NSA and GCHQ they think they are so much ahead of everyone else, they laugh about it.

We already know that the US is already in a position to launch complex digital attacks that can cause major material damage to their enemies. A virus known as Stuxnet, and discovered 2010, was developed as part of a joint venture between the US and Israel to ravage Iran's nuclear facilities, destroying many of the country's nuclear centrifuge devices. Since then, NSA has, to date, boasted about its newer and strongest digital weapons.

New documents published by Der Spiegel show that the NSA surveillance is the foundation of their efforts to create sophisticated digital weapons. One of the main themes in the newly leaked documents involves the capability of Five Eyes' services. The platform exploits the methods of US adversaries to "steal their tools, their structures, and their targets." These impressive capabilities are called by the NSA “fourth party collection.”

Η επιτυχία του fourth party collection φαίνεται να είναι τόσο μεγάλη επιτυχία που οι πράκτορες της ΝSA και της GCHQ φαίνεται να το διασκεδάζουν μέσα από τις άκρως απόρρητες διαφάνειες. Σε μια παρουσίαση μάλιστα της ΝSA με τίτλο “fourth party opportunities,” η πρώτη διαφάνεια αναφέρει την περίφημη ατάκα του Daniel Day-Lewis “I drink your milkshake” από την ταινία του 2007 There Will Be Blood. Το Der Spiegel αναφέρει, ότι μια μονάδα της NSA ήταν σε θέση να ανιχνεύσει μια from on Άμυνας και να “ακούσει” κρυφά για τις μελλοντικές προσπάθειες κατασκοπείας της Κίνας, μεταξύ των οποίων και μία ψηφιακή διείσδυση στα Ηνωμένα Έθνη.

In another presentation, GCHQ details their efforts to exploit mobile apps using a tool called "BADASS." With this tool, the service has the ability to collect personal data, from metadata sent between users' devices, advertising networks and analytics. This information is not intended to contain any personally identifiable information. But a slide titled "Abusing BADASS for Fun and Profit" or "Abusing BADASS for Fun and Profit" boasts: "We know how bad you are at Angry Birds."

In the rest of the research, Der Spiegel suggests that the US and UK intelligence services behave as you would expect in a Cold War warfare thriller with Brad Pitt.
