11:05 pm
they have been testifying on charges of rebellion sedition and misuse of public funds the prosecutor asked the court to release two other members of the regional parliament and those the latest headlines here on al jazeera more from me and twenty five minutes stay with us though next it's digital dissidents i'll see you in twenty five by. you know who was the war the person in the n.s.a. who did what he absolutely should have done. being a patriot doesn't mean you know obedience to authority. putting aside your obligations to your people to your country for the benefit of
11:06 pm
your government because the office is a pig which is not. so but she thinks and feels very concretely. string accurate talking patient how the u.s. is i mean records shows that it was involved in one way or another in the deaths of more than one hundred twenty thousand people in iraq and afghanistan between two thousand and four and two thousand and ten. and the u.s. government's response is maybe hypothetically as a result of this release of this material some afghan family or u.s. soldier. could face risks. we will likely. face is the cost in human lives on tomorrow's battlefield or and in some in some some place where we will put our our military forces other and result is that our force admit last year on the earth with a single person had been as a result of. if you like all the rights for
11:07 pm
a moment you lost them for a lifetime and that's why this matters is because it happened and we didn't know about the war. for some people they are super heroes for others simply traitors whistleblowers like daniel ellsberg thomas drake william binney and edward snowden. and i. activists like the wiki leaks founder julian assange and the former british secret service agent an emotional they want to the complete surveillance of our society they oppose intelligence agencies governments and corporations and for this they are threatened hounded and imprisoned. why are they so committed what drives them. through.
11:08 pm
the intelligence services enough the only ones monitoring communications and processing massive data. also private corporations like google amazon facebook and apple collect millions of pieces of information about us to analyze and monetize. that's i think that's my own sacked. since there was stuff this i don't know and it's just annoying via chaff and the slick not a pseudo stuff to thank us and want us all school to be honest. we don't really know what exactly happens with their own digital trails our data is transferred invisibly to huge data centers. sublimating into
11:09 pm
a complex new identity creating our digital self. to get out of it blank this myth that's the sky near the high human endeavor. so many of then thought into this you see if you do that often have this in bastar tenet with. the if you know it's off. it's not one for who finished ima need so much money that is close to an estimate it is a concession but it's an awful and a dish also this is in everyone gets smarter because of this technology because it's free or very inexpensive and the empowerment of people is the secret to technological progress. we are all participating in this enormous transition where billions of people are joining our party right joining
11:10 pm
our fun in joining our anxiety. the misaligned of who to michelle what i need to balance fun individualism doubt and shots i modify had always started noya put looked at some of them given the new developments in a machine intelligence will make us far far smarter as a result and this means everyone on the planet genetics revolution has a huge and positive impact on the way we treat disease progression disease and so and so on it's all basically because these smartphones are really super computers. and so on and a gun something a friend as well you just telephone not just me or does this is a gotten him going to them and in need and i'm from no one's a smartphone into who was in touch i have it so i can get out and then it would g.p.s. nice man in love will be
11:11 pm
a saint because i see how my vance into it was in touch in the middle ones. with the advent of the smartphone we have become even more visible. so. then it's not just i phones that's almost like things i mean most small things all these days smartphones capture our communication behavior along when where and with whom we talk. apps collect data about our user behavior even our health data in addition many people use digital data storage like clouds carelessly handing over their information. community. are being intercepted analyzed and stored automatically and that means that all of our fears or expressions are
11:12 pm
associated with who we talk to who need who. as the old internet saying goes if it's for free and you are the product because the use of all those convenient digital online services are only seemingly for free because we paid with our data. we have neither inside nor overview about our digital self and absolutely no possibility to actively control it. then it's a bit stale online as a sea of a community event. rufus puts up a stand for vended. name is best dismissed so then you've got disputes about stand you know it's an increase in v.h.f.
11:13 pm
making the atom do not deserve it and he'd be at is that supposing capital our own fit buy it in internet you can. just will blame us this is a few men get some to have been on to date a brokerage firm the size consequently frenzy it's best to stand on one field sit under a few mit. beating such highest and allow french banks to put sesson into account your spouse as mitt the hidden tustin talked in z. for i'm not asking for was a one off young victim cow of. went that's. so it's better than i was vietnam estimate you can watch fashion so owned by speed size of your alfa it's like if you're off to buy an i was very informed unlike you didn't think the last test the bin would see and you have fifty rushed us have been would soon come under hostile explicit seem to see feel like misunderstood bit since the smashed and i go it's most unprofessional so far the one via indecent looks persecutes won't get out too
11:14 pm
much and he kind of did point out. the data we create assembling our digital self is also of interest is a juicy source of information for the intelligence community. so equipment is now being. placed on you ass networks infrastructure like trying to get restructure. tapping straight in enabled by critical partnerships the full extent of which have still not been revealed to this day not even the snow disclosures eighteen t. for aizen and a number of others but that's where it started with the phone companies ok it was it was rapidly expanded to include emails and all related information internet usage and all related from ation and financial transactions. the revelations by
11:15 pm
edward snowden provide detailed insight into the relationship between intelligence services and private companies. telephone metadata and web browsing histories are of great interest to the intelligence community. see that's really industrial relations. they were tapping the fiber lines between the google servers yeah. they didn't even know this is going on google to dot ok so i mean that's the point they can tap lines anywhere in the world and when they do that they can get it between the servers of any but any company. from my perspective i think there's been massive collusion between the big corporations and big government you know with the big spy agencies the military security complex they have agreements between them where they will pay money for data if they produce data for n.s.a.
11:16 pm
or they will also pay for access and like for example the the room in the eighteenth the facility in san francisco that has the n.s.a. . it's the n.s.a. room that has the tappan on how they feed data and it's really a t.n.t. that has them maintained that room facebook is evil in my view have been saying is he is it's the spies we dream it does we'll for up information and it's just there on a plate for the spies to access and we know they do you know through back doors and things and yet that's reformation taken weeks or months together going into vigil they extend what google of information to google has is nothing near what n.s.a. does for example they do not have they have access to the e-mails if they're using g.-mail for example but not all the other service providers and they don't so they don't have that data to do a composite view of what people are doing nor do they have access to all the fiber optic lines around the world nor do they see the banking transactions or the
11:17 pm
financial transactions or the phone calls they don't see that sort of vast amount of information that google does not have. so that's something that is leading to increasing concentrations of power and you get some smart people things for companies and then these contracts to the national security sector as contractors. so the crazy viber. see. market capitalism is what i'm concerned about. many of the companies concerned reacted immediately to the snowden revelations they proclaim and advertise seemingly tap proof mobile phones and
11:18 pm
texting services followed by public announcements pleading that they will no longer put up with the pressure of the intelligence services. the way in which technology companies have reacted in the waiting lists they wouldn't. leaks means that the level of cooperation between technology companies and an intelligence agencies has gone down and that's that's that's added to the threat in some ways. it would be slightly bizarre if all the advances in technology in the use of bulk data analysis which are improving. the performance of business improving the health care. delivery and so on somehow national security was allowed to use and.
11:19 pm
it's not as if the more secure you get the less purpose you have all the more privacy you have the less security you have these you know in a free society like we joy in the west. your freedoms are guaranteed by security and so the job of western governments is to find the optimal levels of privacy and security suppose some x. amount. as a consequence of the september eleventh attacks the technical capabilities of the intelligence services were massively expanded international collaboration of national spy organizations was also intensified. not always without friction and problems they have similar reigns like combating international terrorism we get the listen in on one another. after the nine eleven hit there was this perspective
11:20 pm
that germany had had screwed up that the security services crude up that they had harbored terrorists. you have the cells and homburg. you have a number of the hijackers. transited through live there play in there. it was a significant cell there's no question about that and there's a whole history behind it and i think i think you know as i said i said this even publicly said this in terms of the testimony for the bundestag the germany within europe was declared. a target number one and i believe i believe. significant pressure but clearly out of the secret partnership and cooperation of the b. and d. and others was expanded and we know that now there's again more evidence has come out there was a special agreement this secret and expanded sheremet basically gave
11:21 pm
the united states car blogs but also it was there was a b. and a. not going to cooperate or going to help facilitate. this spring two thousand and fifteen a scandal erupts in germany regarding the close and secret collaboration between the german intelligence service be n.d. and the n.s.a. . the b. and d. cooperated with the n.s.a. to spy on european politicians and assisted the united states in attempts of industrial espionage. when the press reported that the chancellor rhee had known about the scandal since two thousand and eight it peaked with the german opposition threatening to sue its own government over the b endianness a fair. use
11:22 pm
victim. and now it's become to this nice to have. marcus and zine misty deutsch and go in and as a cause an opinion catch dean and in and in but beautiful. from the ideas in indies and in these activities. just give us some us and to get opposites your own. globality beason barrett voted to move you have a city a movie conjures that image of protect invasion from fun toy chip stuff in the d.s.m. four being in a foothold. since two thousand and fourteen in an inquiry into the snowden revelations meets in the buddhist time for the first time i whistleblower from the usa reports to the parliamentary committee about the
11:23 pm
n.s.a. and its into relations with the german b.m.d. . lean body confirm the very close relationship between the be indian the n.s.a. to the commission of. a relationship that already existed during his time in the us intelligence service. as even effectively as he enters. the scooter club films of the us and it was
11:24 pm
office it was called in those fancy media and then this in the field for baseball but he hopes on denying took this via. get all the i'll have to and this instruments the parliament had it in control it an awfully thin thin stick unequal to move into an alpha meter better than often things to fit in fight a seat. belt or something to sit so it's going to get involved on the hope we hadn't to see here stuff taught in any moth eaten things that i get in the meat on the if we can't get out and sit on the stuff it's the standing in parliament house you can tell agreements of and from what i can see they had the same problem getting information from the bindy that the congress has from getting of getting information from the n.s.a. . it is the either won't tell them or they lie to them. one of the other i mean that's what's been going on in the in the u.s. government the point is that now in our in our case we've been this snowden material has made it obvious that they've been lying to the government that's what intelligence agencies are that they are tossed to do things in secret that are
11:25 pm
unlawful. or politically embarrassing you see intelligence agencies aren't aren't controllable unless they're really heavily monitored and there's a verification and unquestionable verification process they don't have that now that's the problem in our country too we do not have a an unfair unequivocal verification process that the agencies can't look can't can't corrupt we are how we conclude this is team and so they know all these things that this bundestag parliament audition control into leading is kicked out so and i can this community so going to parliament that is you can totally immune them into some talk when these talks are going to on get when i mean all governments seem to be in a position of having to trust their intelligence agencies telling them the truth. that is questionable nothing will happen in terms of any self-regulation. as organizations are too secretive too complex and to walk back to his house that
11:26 pm
regular. the german chancellor in the bundestag parliamentary control committee are officially responsible for the control of the b. and d. . only with a more comprehensive and effective control of the intelligence agencies can civil rights and privacy be properly protected. what other options are there to prevent abuse or possible illegal activities by the spies. often only intelligence insiders are left to go public reveal institutional violations and become whistleblowers get there's disparity between these individuals on the one side and the governments and intelligence services on the
11:27 pm
other and so the whistleblowers and activists soon find out what happens when they challenge these organizations. as a world concern or maybe scotland via given the tillage will have to go ohm's or me as us and good luck to get. this being bandied react to your own admission of being you were team whistleblower snowden fifty it's on i'm your king you but i mean she's gotten the unshed right martin so your answer to answer is it's and. and for us to follow and they are to your own barrier give eason snowden some suits or. tighten this up kind basically just out. get through to get out by a cloud about us trust them it must see vincent you want for been given isn't very good. after his revelations in two thousand and thirteen edward snowden tried to flee from hong kong to south america via moscow but the u.s. revoked his passport he couldn't continue his journey from moscow and had to apply
11:28 pm
for asylum in russia. started had been criticized about ending up in russia headed up in russia because the state department canceled his passport and so he couldn't fly over i mean is an incredible own goal why would they do that. that allows them to make the argument that he's working for russia and they can apply the nine hundred seventeen act why would they want to apply the nine hundred seventy because the nine hundred seventeen act carries with it the death penalty and they want to get in the death penalty the n.s.a. commission in the bundestag actually wanted to cause snowden as a witness many voices in the german public support the idea to grant edward snowden asylum in germany.

11:37 pm
get clients who potent with these a few digs up a book or nest but again he's busy typing julian since you hear the finish but start before one as and your thoughts are going to start to take you to you know we can take i'm sticking hudson and taking this with you could open it in time to hide but you did it because she didn't in sweden proceed is missing basic and vice just as i just got on a scale of this is in the median doctor of. the sun she travelled to sweden in two thousand and ten for a series of lecture. their investigation proceedings into sexual misdemeanors against two swedish women were open. a son said he was being subjected to a smear campaign and refuted the allegations when interpol issued an arrest warrant for him he went underground within twenty twenty four hours it had been dropped in vain assessed by the most senior prosecutor in stock i mean and i dropped and she said that there was no crime at all. that had been committed. so later on
11:38 pm
it came out in the supreme court here that both women concerned i had not followed the complaint and that one of them had said that the police had made this up after a brief game of hide and seek a songe handed himself into the london police in december two thousand and ten and was remanded in custody released on bail with electronic ankle monitor a son fought in court against his extradition to sweden on a number of occasions. the walls were closing in both from the from the us side us it could be ready and from the. swedish side and from the u.k. . at the time. and i june two thousand and twelve i had a lot of. surveillance and also had q as a lady came out was spying on us and the national security agency only person so.
11:39 pm
there was a risky plane coming to the embassy to apply for asylum that that action would be seen and that i would be interdicted. but i was extremely well disguised well i i didn't look anything like i normally look. is it true that only you have heard something a week and still screw. this to the stunning the she was correct yes. the clothing and everything was different and the reason you put this turn in your sure is to change your gait because their gait can be quite recognizable and that's not an issue if someone is to say new in the newspaper and that it is an issue for a surveillance team. since june two thousand and twelve the sun has been stranded at the ecuadorian embassy in london.
11:40 pm
at that time i said well i'd be happy to go to sweden provided there's a guarantee of no exhibition to united states because the london independent had already revealed that the us and sweden were in informal talks about expediting me from sweden if you will render do we call that rendering. you know that's what the one of the dark side activities that we've been doing. taking people up the street anywhere in the world and sending them to different places for torture or in prison.
11:41 pm
escape isn't even in fog of a kind i leapt in for they to. go up to psych to hear these and snowden. and julian bizarreness on julian guns guns thought this. a man from god to the guys to them for vicky dixon julian course. it's one hundred fifty some of us that's by thompson on for the killing spend this wasn't long before this critter i'm not a preview of this thing guns inside big lighted five thousand seen a line that had me on i will spend can get off of the killings i know. doesn't to some kind of sponsors thousand mimeo you know once the story's over the journalists skiffle from the stories they've made their careers and their suppliers that time try having broken and created with no hope of proper employment again. you know having left behind your whole way of life your social circle everything and in the case of intelligence or supply of course you face automatic prosecution and
11:42 pm
conviction so it's a very high price to pay. well i mean a real threat came when the f.b.i. came into my house and when i was getting out of the shower and pointed a pistol at me. i was getting out of the shower getting dragged dried off and they came in pip pointing a pistol at me and also my family so it was a threat and it was hard to threaten people and then after that the department of justice attempted to fabricate evidence and and indict us i was very publicly indicted with a ten felony is a ten felony count indictment under the espionage act facing thirty five years in prison that was that was the final price you got a member of the inside intelligence community there trumpeting these things they're holding these guys up it as examples to say look if you say what's going on you step on the line even if this even if you do it for the right reasons even if you
11:43 pm
do it at the right point there will be a record caution you know they talk about internal channels and what not but these guys used in terms of analysts and they say people like thomas drake they ended up getting indicted and this is something that i paid very close attention and i learned a great deal from it was very rare in american history to get charged with espionage for non spy to vs in fact i was actually the only the second whistleblower charged a white man or the first was dana wellsburg when he went to the baltimore sun he did not reveal classified information you know they charged him with classified but that was a hoax say there was a fraud they reclassified material that they found in his computer which was not conscious right and he had every reason to believe that he would not be prosecuted for what he gave to baltimore sun he would lose if john. he would lose his clearance right if his very serious serious challenge depended on terrorists in
11:44 pm
fact most the job he should have now would require a clear. show he was taking a very serious risk but i don't if you risk if he thought he would be prosecuted i don't i was blacklisted i was president i got i was radioactive no government agency would take me nor nor any contractor with the government it was off limits and at the same made it crystal clear even though there were attempts by even prior to my indictment to find work it all they would all come to naught so i ended up as a wage rate employee apple one of the retail stores in the greater d.c. area where i still work but unable to find any other work at all of any kind that was the price you have no job you have no career you have no you have no pension all those years i served in the government i'm now a traitor and an enemy of the state. the
11:45 pm
price thomas drake another whistle blowers pay for warning against the danger of a surveillance state is high loss of friends and family. flight into exile or long prison sentences under more stringent conditions. professional isolation and personal financial collapse.
11:46 pm
this is the here is so mirrors. here you dish everything is organized everything is. just. how far we go on our efficiency. or race the sovereignty of individuals. i see how far an institution would go to raise freedom. for a person's life. and the only way they can do that is to control them every single
11:47 pm
second of the day and measured at the same time. i chose to vote myself inside the system. never imagining what i did. that i'd be charged with us or. for having defended the constitution protecting my constitution became a state crime. kak. a state crime. and we have the power. you don't. in the end all they had left to do was assassinate me. at the character level that's all they had left. assassinate. which is the oath in the form. of control right. it doesn't matter what even the crimes against the state work.
11:48 pm
your unexceptable. you're not fit. to work in the government or see or be a citizen. yet you do not deserve prison. because you're the wrong guy. where we have that in history. its goals. you just described how the f.b.i. team interrogated me in a similar room and they played the good cop bad cop with themselves and they
11:49 pm
