9:05 am
ever sold at auction the artwork was expected to sell for one hundred million but went for four times its estimated value those are the headlines the news continues here on al-jazeera of the digital dissidents and selection by foot. 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 your government because the office he creates is not. so but she thinks
9:06 am
and feels very concretely. string accurate documentation how the us has our own records shows that it was involved in one way or another in the deaths of more than a 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 in in some in some some place where we will put our our military forces other end result as it are forced to admit last year on the earth with a single person had been as a result of well. if you like all the rights for a moment you lost them for a lifetime and that's why this matters is because it happened and we didn't know
9:07 am
what we were told. for some people there superheroes for others simply traitors whistleblowers like daniel ellsberg thomas drake william binney and edward snowden. hackers and i. activists like the wiki leaks founder julian assange and the former british secret service agent an emotional they want to support 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.
9:08 am
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. the act. since they're washed off this i don't. have the slick not to see them stuff to thank us and does that. we don't really know what exactly happens with our own digital trails our data is transferred invisibly to huge data centers. sublimating into a complex new identity creating our digital self.
9:09 am
to get on events linked to smith this does this kind of the high human endeavor to get so many of them fonts into. view that have this bus start with. one for. those who are left to vote it is against the law for an additional offices 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 our fun in joining our anxiety. misaligned
9:10 am
a clue to michelle what i need to balance on individualism dot inserts i modify how it all started noir put up that some of them given the new developments in 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. yet so i'm kind of gunslinger from time as well you just telephone not just me or does this is who got him going to how many needs to 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. iseman him of all b.s. and has asked me how my angsty advance into i wasn't touching him amid the words.
9:11 am
with the advent of the smartphone we have become even more visible. so. it's not just i phones that i was laughing i mean most small phones 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 years or expressions are associated
9:12 am
with who we talk to who we need who we hate. 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 pay with our data. we have neither inside nor overview about our digital self and absolutely no possibility to actively control it. then it's understand online as a sea of a community then vietnam office puts up a stand for vended. name is best dismissed so then you've got disputes of a stand you know it's an increasing v.h.f. making the atom do not deserve it and he'd be at this instance of course in capital
9:13 am
our own fit buy it in internet you can. just will blame us this is a few men get to some to have been at the data brokerage the size consequently a frenzy it must be a stand on one field says under a few mit. size it will be king says highest and allow french bison to quote says and into going to your spouse as mitt the hidden tuscans walked in z for i'm lost and for it was a one off young victim cow of. went that's. so it's better than i was vietnam as much you can watch fashion so. i speed size of yet off that side if you're off to bed i was very informed on like i didn't think the last past the been would see and you heard fifty rushed just have been would soon come under hostile explicit seem to see feel like misunderstood visits in this matter and i'll go it's most unprofessional so far the one vital even does it looks worse it gets old again now too much of the kind committed to point out. the data we create assembling our
9:14 am
digital self is also of interest as a juicy source of information for the intelligence community. so equipment is now being put placed on you asked networks infrastructure like trying to get a structure 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 e-mails and all related information internet usage and all related from ation and financial transactions. the revelations by edward snowden provide detailed insight into the relationship between intelligence
9:15 am
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 don't even know this is going on google 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 any company. from my perspective i think there's been massive collusion between the big corporations and big government you know we think 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. or they will also pay for access and like for example the the room in the
9:16 am
eighteenth the facility in san francisco that has the n.s.a. . it's the n.s.a. room that has that happen on how they feed data and it's really a t.n.t. that has them maintain 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 they want to play to the spies to access and we know they do 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 financial transactions or the phone calls they don't see that sort of vast amount
9:17 am
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 texting services followed by public announcements pleading that they will no longer
9:18 am
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.
9:19 am
it's not as if the more secure you get the less previous you have all the more privacy you have the less security you have these you know in a free society like we enjoy 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 the maximums. 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 aims like combating international terrorism they get they listen in on one another. after the nine eleven hit there was this perspective that germany had had screwed up that the security services crewed up that they
9:20 am
had harbored terrorists. 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 sharing agreement basically gave the united states car blog but also it was it was a b.
9:21 am
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 chancellery 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 affair. as
9:22 am
a. victim. and now it's become to this. marcus and zine. deutsch and go in and as a cause an opinion which dean went in and in but beautiful. from the ideas in indies and in these activities. just give us a mouse and an ear to get opposite your wooden. globality beason bed it had to move you here of a city a movie conjures item of protect invasion from fun toy chip. 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 n.s.a. and its into relations with the german d.n.d.
9:23 am
. 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 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
9:24 am
instruments the parliament had it in control it an awfully thin teens to unequal to move into an alpha meter better than often seems to fit in follow the seat. belt for something to sit so it's going to get involved not gotten bad and to see here stuff taught in any law he can things that i get in the meat on the if we can't get out and sit on the stuff it's a standing in parliament house you can tell agreements of and from what i can see they have the same problem getting information from the b. and d. 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 unlawful. or politically embarrassing you see intelligence agencies aren't aren't
9:25 am
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 undue unequivocal verification process that the agencies can't look can't can't corrupt we are how we conclude this is team in the minds of the northeast and things that it's been does the parliament how does include the leading is kicked out so and i can this community are still going to parliament that if 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 acted as a house that regulates.
9:26 am
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 other and so the whistleblowers and activists soon find out what happens when they
9:27 am
challenge these organizations. as a world concern or maybe scotland be a good enough to legitimize or have to go home as 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 sonam ya king you but i didn't start and the un tried mutton so your answer to answer is it's and. and for us to follow. they are to your own barrier give reasons snowden's and best suits are. the time that's what can best be just out. get through to get out by a club our best estimate 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 for asylum in russia. started had been criticized about ending up in
9:28 am
russia headed up in russia because the state department canceled his passport and so he couldn't fly a version i mean the 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.
9:29 am
violence and discrimination are all too familiar to many women in india a reality too often reinforced by molly wood. but its leading star is throwing his weight behind the cause. to believe that they're doing and using his celebrity to add looking out for gender equality. the snake charmers ahmed khan witness at this time on an agency that. the nature of news as it breaks because you can see there in the distance of shia militia vehicles to the docks you can see on the horizon there the peshmerga telling us are actually tanks with detailed coverage when the mine closed in one thousand nine hundred four many people lost their jobs stabbing is us are making money from around the world this is supposed to last for a month but he will tell us that it only lasts for eight days if you look around

9:37 am
before it was as and your thoughts are going to start to take you to you know we can take i'm sticking hard to not taking this with you could open it in time to hide but you did it because she did in sweden perceived as missing basic and vies 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 stalking me and i dropped and she said that there was no crime at all. that it think it. so later on it came out in the supreme court here that both women are concerned i had not
9:38 am
followed the complaint and that one of them had said that the police had made a stop 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 casey had to queue as one lady came out was spying on us and the national security agency only because sir there was
9:39 am
a risk 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 and you heard something a week and still in the school. the soup the stain in the shoe is correct yes. the clothing 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's to seeing you in the newspaper and that it is an issue for a surveillance team. since june two thousand and twelve my son has been stranded at the ecuadorian embassy in london.
9:40 am
at that time i said well i'll be happy to go to sweden provided there's a guarnteed of the 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 and be rendered you know 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. escape isn't even in fog of a kind i leapt in for they had to. stop the cycle here in these and snowden.
9:41 am
and julian bizarreness on julian guns guns thought that. a man from god to gust of them from vicki dixon julian discourse. lunched of to some of your thoughts by two thousand and one for the killing spend this wasn't long before this critter i'm not a review of this since i'm going to type the glided. five thousand seen on a time when i will spend can get off of the killings i know. doesn't to some kind of sponsors thousand mimeo you know once the stories over the journalists get off and break the stories they've made their careers and their suppliers that time try having broken i 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 the supply of course you face automatic prosecution and conviction to so it's very high price to pay. well i mean a real threat came when the f.b.i.
9:42 am
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 as a ten felony count indictment under the espionage act facing thirty five years in prison that was that was the final price you government or the inside the 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 do it at the right point there will be a record caution you know they talk about internal channels and what not but these
9:43 am
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 nods 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 now 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 rate this is very serious a judge depended on parachute in fact most of the job he should have now would require clear. so he was taking
9:44 am
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 they were 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
9:45 am
9:46 am
this is we 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 health far and institutionally go to race freedom. for a person's life. and the only way we can do that is to control them every single second of the day and measure it at the same time.
9:47 am
i chose to put 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. the state. and we have the power. you don't. in the end all they had left to do was assassinate me. at the character 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. your unexceptable. you're not fit.
9:48 am
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. that. 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 brought the chief prosecutor and he threatened me with spending the rest of my life in prison unless i cooperated with their investigation and he said you better start
9:49 am
talking and i simply said i'm not going to plea bargain the truth. he says we have more than other evidence to put you away for a long long time i was declared an enemy of the state i committed crimes against state. but i'm standing here free and i can't begin to tell you what it means because. so i'm thanking you for pollie up the mirror to my own government ok it's all right because i'm free i did not end up in the dark hole. ok right. now i'm glad the west won in that regard and yet how paradoxical it is that the technology of the west is now being used to mass surveillance on a scale of the stars he never could have imagined. i don't need one agent two
9:50 am
hundred eighty quote unquote east german citizen. the computer takes care of it for me that's the real machine. that makes it a lot easier to. publicly call for the dissolution of i to say you can't reform and the reason no reform possible the last thing left which is true is to cut funding. the problem is they weren't smart enough to understand what they were creating it. but they in fact were creating this master study network i mean this is like the study on super steroids the study had all these data all this data on a lot of people but it was all handwritten in paper and files and so on very difficult to manipulate also hard to keep up to date and hard to keep complete none
9:51 am
