11:02 pm
previous experiences have been stirred come back for more muscle to show that i don't care about the injury even if i lose my legs this will not stop me coming back what happened here woke people up and reminded them about all calls we've come here to get our right of return a lot of states. but in. this with giving something under the profile i am old but i'm here to show my enthusiasm and to inspire the young guys to continue their struggle. for the good of the earth the as he does every week hamas is leading garza yassin was visited the protests a prime target for israeli snipers he'd have been easily spotted by the drones above but was protected by the crowds below on. this friday the counters moved three hundred meters closer to israel their mission is that when these. climates on
11:03 pm
may the fifteenth these terms will be on the border between gaza and israel but after four weeks now of demonstrations there's been nothing in the way of concessions from the israelis that would improve the daily life of palestinians living in gaza. and it's with al-jazeera garza. the un special envoy for syria says chemical weapons inspectors in the syrian town of duma should do their job as quickly as possible and without any interference to find the mr made the comments after holding talks with the russian foreign minister sergey lavrov in moscow as he tries to renew diplomatic efforts to end the seventy a crisis do we need a political discoloration not only a military vehicle lesion and i hope that will be possible good for the discussions now regarding the political process i am very pleased to hear what
11:04 pm
you heard then i heard from minister lover of and from minister surely girl that in spite of what happened last week and it is still a very recent there leave the strong commitment from the russian federation to push for the political process. the us democratic party is suing the donald trump campaign and russia over alleged collusion in the two thousand and sixteen presidential election they are of contacting trump's advisers to inform them of a cyber attack that leaked negative information about his democratic rival hillary clinton. while also it also involves wiki leaks and its founder julian assange who they say gave the trump team advance knowledge they were publishing the information the bar separatist group better has asked for forgiveness from its i think dems over the pain caused by its decades long campaign of violence the most comprehensive apology yet by the group which is set to announce its dissolution within days. south africa's president has visited northwest province to qualify and
11:05 pm
protests over poor local services more than twenty people have been arrested since the demonstrations began in or in around the city of my king on wednesday lisa five rubber bullets to disperse the crowds who in turn have set cars in light and set up roadblocks you're up to date with all of our top stories digital dissidents is next but another update on the way in about twenty five minutes time i'll see then.
11:06 pm
at the moment we are in a state of the universe like deception i took an oath to support for the constitution i take an oath sport and. started selling that was important was asked to call these people super heroes it is not so good because a church that works. for some people they are superheroes for others simply traitors whistleblowers like daniel ellsberg thomas drake william binney and would snowden. hackers and activists like the wiki leaks founder julian assange and the former british secret service agent an emotional they want to subvert the complete surveillance of our society they oppose intelligence agencies governments and
11:07 pm
corporations and for this they are threatened hounded and imprisoned. quietly so committed what drives. us. san francisco california. the cradle of our modern day. puter industry home to creative technicians and visionaries hackers and whistleblowers. in a suburb of san francisco lives the godfather of all whistleblowers. daniel ellsberg . and probably the only whistleblower that i know of who can make a living as a lecture because i'm the one who was put on trial for
11:08 pm
a hundred fifteen years i'm the one who isn't involved in the president being resigning because of his crimes against lee sure he made me notorious enough. that i can make a living here who literally. studied economics science at harvard in the one nine hundred fifty s. after graduating he enrolled like many fellow whistleblowers in the military. and of. you she courage here all around you of the conventional sure high courage you've been trained for you've been disciplined for but you sheer it happens you have the training works and people are risking their bodies and their lives every minute. at the end of the one nine hundred sixty s. ellsberg worked at the u.s. embassy in vietnam. he became known by publishing the
11:09 pm
secret pentagon papers which proved that the us president had lied to the american public about the vietnam war for years. ellsberg decided to make the documents public after meeting peace activists who had refused the draft. i would not have thought of doing it if i didn't have the example of many many people . who are going to prison for nonviolent resistance to the craft. in one nine hundred sixty nine ellsberg began smuggling parts of the pentagon papers out of the government agency he worked for and copy them over the following months. a total of seven thousand pages of secret documents. in march one nine hundred seventy one he passed the documents to the new york times who
11:10 pm
eventually printed them. ellsberg surrendered himself and was charged with theft and unauthorized possession of pentagon material. the trial collapsed when it came to light that nixon and illegally wiretapped ellsberg. and agents had broken into his psychiatry ists office. ellsberg there after remained a free man. if they arrest me or indict me then i will say it was only me. patricia ferrie next to me didn't cooperate. so happens and she i couldn't figure out why she wasn't indicted that way because she had done what
11:11 pm
a copy. editor in her fragrance told the paper or here i thought it was because he didn't want such a beautiful woman sitting next to me at the defense table in front of the jury. i would advise people now not to do what i did to reveal themselves if they can avoid it. i reveal myself traditionally a reason no dear. essentially we knew that other people would be suspected and maybe even charged with cancer constantia limits against. people who might look more more guilty than you did. in a way i would rather take the risks of democracy and the risks. mr daniel ellsberg thank you.
11:12 pm
thank you have a third panelists will be joining us from russia one of the one of my real heroes and i think many people in this room many people in the hacker community many people in america. edward snowden welcome. thank you more than forty years after daniel has been n.s.a. employee edward snowden emerges as a whistleblower the usa now has a new public enemy number one. thanks to manning and now to you and getting more favorable publicity. and in forty years is already had. because suddenly people who were all for putting me in prison for life before now
11:13 pm
realize that i was really a very good guy i was the. i was the good whistleblower and so i'm i'm totally of course i rejected this from the beginning that i didn't want to be a foil for. showing a badly to people that i totally admired there was a moment of hope x. hobart's conference in july in new york city. ellsberg. i was having a live conversation with snowden we have a front as a mayor and his members of the global community and know the broad outlines of one policies that have a significant impact on our lives and i think that's something that tom grant showed me how to do the right way. there was a moment where he said. very clearly very distinctly that i showed him the right
11:14 pm
way. i had always hoped that a snowball come along. thomas drake served during the cold war in europe in the one nine hundred eighty s. with the u.s. air force which included work as a signals analyst on spy planes hoovering the soviet union so my day job is a reconnaissance a better country. and then by. the way it was computers. this is it was a vast a world that you're now you give you ball is particularly in europe very quickly you know the old for this. is you know chaos. virtual there are. in the one nine hundred ninety s. drake worked as a software developer for the cia in september two thousand and one he was hired as a senior analyst by the n.s.a. . my first ever job as nine eleven we were working on you know sixteen eighteen
11:15 pm
hour days i mean it was that those four months after nine eleven are a blur because as it was just. your network we recognized that this was a significant event in history. whatever you got in a fight whatever you got the labs we need it whatever tools you can use to prosecute those behind. nine eleven. do it. i was selected as the designated senior executive and say the lead up that effort to find anything we had to fight and so i did and that's where i brought to the attention of others tools techniques programs things are in the lab things were pilots things that were being dissed testbed the mantra that went out from n.s.a. by general hayden he kept going around saying we just need to make americans feel safe again feel safe even out banners. and i discovered during those first
11:16 pm
couple three weeks after nine eleven all this information that we as you imagine was pouring in after nine eleven literally being use to monitor and survey oil and intercept u.s. domestic communications on an extraordinarily broad scale. i was finding this out within days of nine eleven and others were coming to me saying what are we doing top. among the snowden documents were figures for the u.s. secret service budget. since september eleventh they supposedly doubled by twenty five billion to fifty two billion u.s. dollars in two thousand and thirteen. the surveillance programs continued to metastasize they continue expand it in ways that still have not been fully revealed. and this became sort of the collect it all
11:17 pm
mindset mentality what does that lead to well yes you're. korea zation you have these other interesting arrangements with certain internet providers and telecommunication concerns so the temptations are enormous and it's like a you know give us access or back in or open it up and that's what happened and now you're seeing a lot of this unfold. the national security agency n.s.a. for short the largest foreign intelligence agency in the usa has been responsible for the worldwide monitoring of electronic communications since one thousand nine hundred fifty two. some of the thirty five thousand employees weren't comfortable with the massive expansion of surveillance since september eleventh. all of the colleagues that i knew which was just a handful bill binnie ed loomis kirk we chose to retire from the n.s.a.
11:18 pm
. in late october two thousand and one they realize what was happening they could not stand by and see the subversion of the constitution and all the work that they had done being used for mass surveillance they left the agency i begged them to stay i chose to remain and fight from with it as long as i could i got mad at them you know so i my my objective was that counterattack i don't believe in defense you know just sitting back and being defensive i mean you have to get out there and attack so that's what i started doing that was my point it's time to attack so basically was a declaration of war. against my government. william binney mathematician and programmer initially worked for the n.s.a. as an analyst then later as the technical director of the secret service. as the
11:19 pm
boss of a six thousand strong team he developed a wiretap program that anonymously filtered and processed large volumes of data. i tried to do the right thing right after nine eleven trying to make a contribution that would make a difference they refused to accept it so it was basically blocked that there was nothing i could do they would accept nothing from me the n.s.a. directors decided against the program from vinnie's team and i opted for another they collected much more data. the problem is i helped in designing the system that's in use. because i knew what was possible once they started using those programs and opening it up to massive data input on everybody in the planet so it was pretty clear that it was obvious to me how they were using it and what they're doing with it so i mean because i understood the design of the
11:20 pm
systems. and so after that when they started spying on us citizens violating the constitution i had to leave i couldn't be a part of all the criminal activity that was going on and that's fundamentally i call that treason against the country so i got out at the end of october day two thousand and one. one year later binney submitted a complaint to the u.s. defense department for wasting state funds the complaint was examined but had no effect the patriot bill binney became a combative whistleblower a role model for many today. this man this is his friend came here intelligence the integrity of the fifty three . elite represents the patches that you any clip that series like tom
11:21 pm
drake and it's used to tell this integrity is pretty. this is yours. it's a worse of you. so think you know. i knew every major leader in the city general hayden personally say and i met. with through the taker the character since i left sid. opted out of the system his colleague thomas drake fought against the violation of civil rights from within the n.s.a. . my new for the moment i stood up to my own supervisor and i went to her and said what are we doing violating the prime
11:22 pm
directive to cannot spy on americans our war you don't understand what i confronted my boss i go to the oed the office general counsel i confront him and then he says don't ask any more questions. now you're faced with a dilemma i didn't give the order i'm not the one that was implementing the survey of the master valence program the digital dragnet what do you do i chose to blow the whistle. but how do you do that knowing there's a master valence program and knowing the n.s.a. was targeting targeting journalists. i made arrangements in encrypted form to communicate. honestly with this reporter.
11:23 pm
then i made a decision that i would meet the reporter. that was in february of two thousand and seven. the journalist subsequently published a number of articles about the waste and mismanagement of the n.s.a. the repercussions were enormous but the n.s.a. let the attacks come to nothing as drake did not prove the central part of his criticism with documents. this tactic suddenly stopped working in two thousand and thirteen. edward snowden's material that stuff he took made it absolutely impossible for them to deny what they were doing because it simply laid out in their terms on their slides what they were doing and it was impossible for them to deny it. i don't think mr snowden was a patriot. the way in which these disclosures happen.
11:24 pm
have been damaging to be united states and damaging to our intelligence capabilities people ask as i see it is the patriot or traitor you know that's the headline in all these things edward snowden patriot or that drives me nuts the very thought you know that people could regard it was a traitor we will likely. face is the cost in human lives on tomorrow's battlefield or in in some in some some place where where we will put our military forces you know when we ask them to go into harm's way and i think that's that's the greatest cost that we face with the disclosures that have that have been presented so far. no who was the one person to say who did what he absolutely should have done how many people should have done what you did what. is revealing is
11:25 pm
a global tribute to the tension for democracy any. being a patriot doesn't rule. obedience to authority. hiding aside your obligations to your people to your country for the benefit of your government is the opposite of it isn't. until the revelations by edward snowden the warnings of intelligence agency critics were always shrugged off as speculation only after he had published all the original n.s.a. documents was there proof and concrete evidence provided for the first time. documents all the difference it is more risky to do that it also makes all the difference in terms of political trick. manning and i gave the documents less than
11:26 pm
one percent of the starting documents have been published that's terrible terrible things those those documents do not belong to a journal they do not belong to or. to the national security agency they belong to history. something that has gone through every single one of us have been has been a victim of the national security agency spying all human beings use the internet. the victims of it and the victims deserve to know what has happened to them. so i think the opportunity is in producing
11:27 pm
a very broad global outrage about what has happened in every country and informing all the victims of that surveillance about what is actually happening to them and releasing enough documents so that all the technical industries. hackers and computer programmers can go over and over governments can work out how to protect them so. julian a son hacker and journalist was interested in computer programming from an early age as a teenager he'd already happening to foreign data systems and military networks later he studied physics and mathematics in melbourne in two thousand and six he founded the whistle blowing website wiki leaks which publishes secret documents of governments intelligence agencies and corporations. was an insider. was an insider. would say that i was never inside but i was.
11:28 pm
inside. you know titans of big companies. as a computer hacker and later the knowledge and almost analyzing their material. so i had exotic came sense for what they were about but i never had the fear that one should work for these organizations. for people who were in the u.s. national security system it was like there are drug. drug that made them powerful because there were groups that have a lot of power and. that system has a way of talking about how the world works and how united states empire is a good thing going to take a long time towards that drug out of the system. because they are entirely washed that system but the more recent whistleblowers they still have perhaps some
11:29 pm
way to go the only difference i have for massage is i think the only difference is i think that he probably believes more in the value of total truth or near total transparency that night is. from planting forests with drones to surviving drought small funds al-jazeera award winning environmental solutions programs with tons of a plant them to a real job but. making the people communities and organizations addressing some of the greatest man might environmental problems threatening our planet. a new season of earth rise coming soon on al-jazeera. he ruled for nearly half a century a controversial political figure in the cauldron of the middle east and one who was never far from crisis at home or abroad.
11:30 pm
in a two part series i'll just zero warrant tells the story of king hussein of jordan episode two on the night fate. at this time on al-jazeera. we here to jerusalem bureau covered israeli palestinian affairs we covered this story with a lot of intimate knowledge we covered it with that we don't dip in and out of this story we have presence here all the time apart from being good karma but it's also very important to give journalism you know the story very well before going into the fields covering the united nations and global diplomacy for al-jazeera english is pretty incredible this is where talks happened and what happens there matters.
11:31 pm
hello i'm maryam namazie in london here the headlines on al-jazeera funerals have been held for palestinians killed by israeli gunfire on friday during ongoing protest along the gaza israel border four people including a child have been killed and at least four hundred seventy others injured palestinians are rallying along the border for the full success of friday and marking prisoners day in support of the thousands of detainees in israeli jails over forty palestinians have now been killed by israeli soldiers since the protests began last month the u.n. special envoy to syria says chemical weapons inspectors in the syrian town of duma should do that job as quickly as possible and without interference safaga mr made the comments after talks with the russian foreign minister sergey lavrov in moscow . it is important that we turn the page on the alleged chemical attack recall that we need to go back to debate six and basically this lower pressure political
11:32 pm
process in trying to avoid that should it become a international area of playground of tensions meanwhile syrian rebels reportedly agreed to withdraw from one of the last remaining areas outside government control in the capital damascus the surrender of the enclave which includes the our milk palestinian refugee camp i mean the syrian government is close to controlling the entire area around the capital the army is continuing to bombard the enclave pending a full surrender deal the us democratic party is suing the donald trump campaign and russia over alleged collusion in the twenty sixteen presidential election they accuse russia of contacting trump's advisers to inform them of a cyber attack that leaked negative information about his democratic rival hillary clinton the lawsuit also involves wiki leaks and its founder julian assange who they say gave the trump team advance knowledge they were publishing information and
11:33 pm
south africa's president has visited northwest province to quell violent protests over poor local services more than twenty people have been arrested since the demonstrations began in and around the city of mike hang on wednesday police are fired rubber bullets to disperse crowds who in turn have set cars alight and set up roadblocks the demonstrators are calling for the region's premier who is a member of the ruling a.n.c. party to step down you're up to date with all of our top stories much more coming up in the news hour i'll see you then in about twenty five minutes time digital dissidents now continue. and wiki leaks highly explosive documents can still be published anonymously that otherwise would be withheld through nondisclosure or censorship. according to wiki leaks all documents were checked for authenticity one major aim is to force corporations and intelligence agencies to abide to more transparency and social
11:34 pm
responsibility to shed light on their well kept secrets which cover up illegal and immoral behavior. to get on here as the front of if you're going to. fall in love it was dominant. on fewer somebody kind of dog in afghanistan i'll sort of afghanistan's entry there's just as rhetorical counterattack just like something out of. it is to say no no no you do that. and. unfortunately the us press is sort of. so. that pretty prince this nonsense so what he needs reveals very concretely the streaming accurate documentation of the us as our own records shows that it was involved in one way or another in the
11:35 pm
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 that's the standard accusation or like what tom drake did threaten military lives exposing corruption fraud waste and abuse doesn't threaten military lives continuing them threatens military law as the end result as a force of good last year on the earth of a single person as a result of a public relations.
11:36 pm
sons demand the protection of individual privacy on the one hand and on the other radical transparency of governments and corporations but one of the motives of whistleblowers why do intelligence insiders step forward into the light risking their careers their lives to expose the wrongdoings of those in power. is there a common name a collective mission of this broad alliance and wild mix of patriotic exceeded service agents and arctic hackers cyberpunks and intellectual publicists. a common theme with among all of us is that we support human rights and that we support the public's right to know information and especially when it threatens the public or threatens the democracy or freedom of individuals i mean that's the kind of common theme that goes through all of it i think but it's a lonely act that you come it as one person but i was convicted by the truth of
11:37 pm
what i knew so i made a conscious choice to yes violate a nondisclosure agreement and we also took the oath to protect and defend the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic so that means even our government if it's violating the constitution so we have we have the responsibility to stand up against that it's the moral agency you're confronted by activity that demands a response. and you're in a pious where you have access to information you have access your eye witness such an eyewitness or you or you were brought into awareness. she didn't. have a specific going past it. when he's been off the mind i'm just mundus contest is
11:38 pm
gone is to advance initiative under suspension what events on this. then. that have tons of my fondest bits in them but of tons of. this was done on site this does. have an advantage. so all of sudden bosses would need someone to fuck. off and mention the fed it isn't me. this is going for. the. high profile leaks we fun fun fun mending friends no odin. but it does fun but this kind of. this is absolute no definition and i know stephen's equal have always. been. to call these people super heroes is not so good because it. will they get it i admire that but they're not me i'm not a superhero who thinks of themselves as a superhero me not you know we're sixteen year old. dreamer.
11:39 pm
who gets your excuse for not doing it doesn't take a ship or here and these people none of these people were going to turn the ship or here with michael in the fog it was no wouldn't it is the name be on to a. few months to month on clothes and most of whom this is. often installed the. only sign in. fact you know who become to be annoying because of us and we could put in who becomes the end of the on the inside thing was going with this all the. to push its own somebody on a is presumed to do is of interest and because that's all in all though it's because in the in the chilis it was snowden into and on to at least seem to even. seem to even want to seem to. him this is. what i see
11:40 pm
when was it puts node and its name to somebody and seen him on the snowden or does it seem under julian especially to be interested in emily coming to tony's top of the top officer vowed not to let this be a nation. to have to a consequence of events. then he still had no from one of. the up this with the best of a dozen slits are many identity for. kids does testify to the picking but that's most in the pledge to ensure that doesn't mean we have a new mindset to most this tool.
11:41 pm
each democracy punch. each country whether it's going to be democratic or not knowing every she is going to private lives of all of their citizens to religious leaders through journalists there are judges and they're ordinary people who could be turned into informants. with those people knowing almost nothing about the good of the good will be ok that she grew too and the people being transparent you guys this is the most ridiculous i've ever seen you know you sure everybody in the country and everybody more of you not an invalid. and so your secret. if you don't have prissy in your communications if you can't guarantee they can hold a telephone conversation or rational mellow view stuff from the internet or read books once that is known to the authorities and it can even begin to self censor what you say and what you read. and. is
11:42 pm
a former agent of the british national intelligence agency m i five. even going to withdraw a little bit feel normal life because you're told you can't mention your being a christian by five and that means that people tend to focus much more on their life within and i thought i'd say begin to socialize a lot more with other people there because you can talk about stuff. and also you end up mainly in the relationships with your fellow intelligence officer this is how i met my former partner and colleague david shayler. when schiller made the illegal practices of the intelligence service public and supported him in becoming a whistleblower. in one thousand nine hundred seventy shortly before the publication of the secret documents the couple flew to france. they went underground for a year and subsequently lived in paris for to use in two thousand they returned to london or went to prison. was spared since then she fights for government
11:43 pm
accountability and campaigns for the rights of whistleblowers when david shayler and i ended up going on the run after the whistle on a series of crimes with five. we were very conscious of exactly how they could be targeting us and the city is so where every week. thought well the telephone might be compromised the computer would become pleased there might be microphones in where we were living there might be video cameras recording what we did and also people might be turned to put against us so they're all these different techniques that they can use and this is way back in the ninety's and love year so even at that point when we were on the run from ever cross europe we used the only sure fire way that we need to communicate to each other securely which was to put a piece of glass or ceramic on a surface and put one sheet of paper on it and then you cover it so that nothing can read what you write in the paper you don't say anything you just write what you
11:44 pm
want on the piece of paper and then you allow the other person to leak that message so there's no or did they can be no video and there could be no imprint under that one piece of paper then of course you have to get rid of that piece of paper so you have to burn it up pulverized the ashes and leave the cast it the winds all to actually start anew because we know that our computers our telephones all of that can be compromised the video can be switched on the audit committee switched on maybe they can log what we write on the keyboard they can even and this comes from the snowden disclosures they can even use my queries apparently to beam into the screen and read what you're typing. we live in a digital world where little remains unseen turning privacy into another luxury
11:45 pm
good. bleak science fiction visions of a powerful surveillance apparatus with seemingly endless technical possibilities. now only seems a question of time how does this change our behavior if every move we make every word we say is recorded a nationalized which roles will we have to play and whose writing script. having lived with that sense in demick surveillance i can tell you it's a corrosive to human spirit so once you lose that sense privacy and you start to self censor you start to be an effective and fully integrated system of that country supremacy in my view is the last defense against a slide towards a police state or to tell us how innocent if you let go of your rights from moment
11:46 pm
you've lost them for a lifetime and that's why this matters is because it happened and we didn't know me or told. you say you had nothing to hide sealed nothing to worry about have nothing to fear look here all the language ok fine church heard your individual or her house yes well just give me your keys your car already rather readily said yes you have your purpose do you use of google eulogy you know if. you have facebook or give me all your passwords you have medical records trudeau's over to me to oh by the way
11:47 pm
all those bank accounts and telephone records you just give me for safe keeping you can have independent courts can you have an independent critch none of the n.s.a. now has the potential to know every source of every journalist of every story. by following the e-mails following the forms following the people with their g.p.s. with their rifle. this is. the op this year here and i'm asked it of all hong. talk to me at the meeting master the world in general is not about serenely it's not about surveying me it's about surveillance us. it's about watching the company for everybody in the country and on a global scale. in
11:48 pm
harsh contrast to the recently emerged facts great public outcry has not yet been heard. now why don't people care in the u.k. it's a very easy answer partly it's cultural because he still in love with james bond and political leaders immediately came out in defense of the intelligence agencies saying we know what they do they follow the law everyone go back to sleep don't worry so the train you sit in the u.k. it wasn't i think in as i said a usa brazil and germany but it's amazing how quickly people forget or in this and this does my message to. the next move is presented in front of this american and something kind of round of. me in bushland. t.v.
11:49 pm
nixon berger and little boy. in that. when it became known in autumn two thousand and thirteen that the private cell phone of german chancellor angela merkel was tapped by the n.s.a. the public outcry in germany was initially large until then the german american friendship had been close and germany believed to be an equal partner the united states. the friends spine and friends of course they do it everybody does this i mean we caught the israelis spying on us several times what did it do to our relationship but not really anything because we know everybody does that ok if
11:50 pm
you're a leader of a country in the world you're a target everybody wants to know what you're thinking so you are a target friends and foes everybody's looking to see or trying to find out what you're thinking universally true i mean that's that's why diplomacy was started right back and thousands of years ago so so i mean it's nothing new chancellor merkel when she found out as to her private phone was being tapped i mean she should have and understood that from the beginning i mean there and her security should have told her that from the beginning and given her some protection since all the leaders understood it the fact that it's exposed you have to be a object maybe publicly but in reality afterward you the relationship is too important to jeopardize just for a simple thing that you already knew was happening. as a humanist in the end of this dimension. this into this year the indifferent. and fair that would be key leaks it's the n.s.a. affair the. t.v.
