before weeks made headlines exposing war logs and diplomatic cables quick to dawdle work was publishing government secrets in the john young told r.t. websites like his get their information from intelligence agencies and are allowed to stay online so spy services can keep an eye on those going to the sites. before there was ever wiki leaks there was cryptome the website cryptome dot org has been publishing information prohibited by governments this includes classified and secret documents on u.s. soil since the one nine hundred ninety six now the co-founder of that site joins me now to tell us more john young i want to thank you so much for joining us now as i said crypto dot org has been in the business of making government secrets public long before wiki leaks was tell us

a little bit about the history and philosophy of your web site the so i was sort of principally to publish information about communication security which is the fundamental technology you for keeping secrets and it grew out of my participation in a group called for points which was also a group or a duty to learn to schools and so that this group was composed of very highly educated you knew scientists and technicians who were mostly working for corporations or government on the technology of communication security. and they knew that this was going to come into the private market as a cold war wound down and they want to get information out to the public about what was coming so we set up the site to make that information available from people who had access to it but did not want to be identified and as a source now and all of the time that you've been doing this that's attracted the attention of the f.b.i. you i've read that you've said that f.b.i. f.b.i. agents have come to visit you what do you think their their surveillance is about

their use our site to see what's going on and so that's something that we've learned about sites like ours they're left in place in order to watch who comes there and see what kind of information we put up. government authorities run these side show their own and show that when they watch other sites like ours we've learned this over time is that the reason we got to shut down is were useful to them to see what kind of attention is paid to this material we think they actually feed us material to put up those who are feeding information to wiki leaks and many other sites that operate the same way but in terms of their being able to see everything we're doing we know that we cannot keep any secrets about our site and we tell our readers you should not expect us to protect you because we are being watched and every other side is being watched just like wiki leaks is being watched so there's no secrecy on the internet and we make that clear that's the lesson we've learned and we now try to spread that. message to be very aware of the internet which is a very large scale spying machine what really really motivates you though to expose

these secrets why is this your vocation why do you feel strongly that this needs to happen well because secrecy is the biggest. enemy of democracy. it is way over done and so threats to democracy are coming from the inside above from the secret keepers and that they need to be exposed to it become a huge industry it's extremely expensive and you can't criticize it you can't get access to it because those who go inside that world or sworn to lifetime secrecy about it and they can never talk about it and i'm saying that's a system that is anti-democratic and it's a big business now thousands of firms have been drawn into it since nine one one because it's very lucrative and so we need to have less secrecy in congress most secrecy in the presidency you know secrecy in all forms of government let me ask you this though some of your criticism is about not vetting information publishing the addresses for example your home addresses of cia agents or detailed maps of

government facilities saying that this is in danger in people's lives this is welcoming attacks and giving people you know details on how to commit them and that there needs to be some kind of distinction between what's acceptable to put out there for the public and what's not what do you say to those critics well what i say to those critics of the public the the authoritative trick ok mike they know better we don't pull that trick we don't think we know better than ordinary people about how to judge information but we know that authorities are always saying things like you just said you're going to for your putting lodge your ribs or blood on your hands. are you know are you putting lives at risk by publishing the addresses of a cia agent at home this has been going on for years and they always pull this we've been told by former spies these are just standard reactions to this to get sympathy for them they in fact will leak that kind of information themselves you should know the government's leak more information all the rest of us put together for their own purposes like what give us an example well if they leak secrets. they

get lax they run operations to leak secrets to test their own system their own destroying employees or. are encouraged to leak secrets and let's see what happens if they leave laptops around as old left behind by a drunk they leave papers around they put stuff on wiki leaks these are all well known techniques to a lot of the public create sympathy and get more funding so this is this is a business. so that. we would like to say well why don't we talk about that is there a better way to do that than to than to deceive the public about this what with just owning up to it for example that the u.s. military loses more secrets into the single organization but they never admit it because they say that would aid the enemy. i want to be candid about that that your system should be talking about how the government will leak information purposely to test their systems or to garner more support do you have an example of that well i can only say that there are schools to train people like bradley manning and

doing just that on the internet it's at fort huachuca this is one of the training syllabuses that we publish as they. teach young people how to run the sting operations but we can hear from a ship to test the system there is something called eight teams would be teams that do combat on the internet but leaking this stuff they've hired hackers to do that hackers in fact are favorite employees now of such groups and so this is talked about hacker conferences about how you go to you know if you can pick up good money by one be going to informant two is running these test systems infiltrating systems . sending out false information. but this is not new this is been going on ever since sort of been a spy world so i just say it's now the internet is now used for that purpose what does it achieve that well it achieves one funding if you don't have threat you don't need the system so leaking threats so then people say oh no this is scary this information that has randomly surprisingly gotten out so we need to go support

whatever our government is saying it needs in terms of ramping up homeland security funding or. you know breaching civil liberties in the name of protecting protecting against terrorism that sort of thing is that we are in fact of the latest one that perfectly but yes we could use it's called cyber security with a brand new cyber command has just been given a huge amount of money it's been in the works so ever since the internet popped up sarber security and so if we could leaks hadn't invented itself let's assume that it did it would have been invented because this is a goldmine for people who don't stop or security don't forget most of this work is handed out to contractors and universities and research institutions and so it's widely based. money flow and so with. not that we would have no defense department we'd have no national security apparatus would have less need for the president or congress so one of the things that's important to keep in mind here is that this is a deeply entrenched approach turns out i'm not i'm tired of i'm not anti-government

i'm anti secret government but are there some things that you know for national security reasons it's better for the public to not now know you know i think there is that you know i'm saying that needs to be more openly discussed right now it's a knee jerk reaction i see far too many sensible people saying that and then we need to talk more about what the internet threat is and what is cyber threat can you give an example and why are so many at least coming from inside these security systems rather now outside and why is that happening why your system so poorly secured that you can't control your own system now that's out there is documentation and one of the ways though you cover up your own faults it is to raise a new threat and blame other people and that's what we see coming with wiki leaks it's going to be blamed for of the state department's own failure to protect its own material or important the military is trying to deflect attention for how to bradley manning or whoever it was did this and we don't know for sure was badly manning how did this happen this is supposed to be the most powerful most adept well funded but a true system in the world how did it happen well first thing it's

a it's a sting operation it didn't happen the way it said it has all the earmarks of one what i thought as were an average person there was no level employee he was able to get access to a classified system but he just had just brought audio to take it and give it all to someone. that's almost a joke and cybersecurity world because that's exactly what you do to test the system but maybe you've got to have some credibility that it's a real thing and so it's almost as though it was a plot to do exactly this who benefits in that scenario sopper com does they just got a huge funding they were having trouble getting it on its feet. and so now they've got a huge fund they got a huge contract for handing out the conference i mentioned we're going to say it needed that it can secure networks was a was a business conference to contractors who want contracts to help secure the internet in response to the wiki leaks threat and others like it clarify what is cyber crime

. cyber con is a p.r. stunt by the defense department the you know say extremely adept has been doing exactly what sopper com does for many many years but because it is a very popular topic they have broken out a new thing called cyber command which will deal with stop or threats but it's still run by n.s.a. a child that in a say the head of it is the head of it it's a and so it's just a marketing stunt and so i think that cyber threats will probably have eventually replaced terrorists that you know there's been this claim that terrorists are using the internet to plot attacks on us so it's a kind of wedding of the two and so there's these kind of accusations of these nature congressional people about we could be a terrorist as expected part of that pattern it's a repeat of the red menace and all these other kinds of fabricated ministers and so now they have that now they've got a fabulous opportunity to say well the enemy has already inside the us and their own the internet because we set it up it's ours and there are they've infiltrated whatever about people that would listen to your take on that and say that just

sounds like a conspiracy theory well conspiracy theory was invented by the spies no one knows more more conspiracy theory than spies do the national security out of paradis cooks up conspiracy theories all the time but they put out the story that is just conspiracy theory as though it's contemptible but in fact they're the ones who cooked up the threats that are far more complex and those are than anything we ordinary people could ever cook up and they get billions to fight it so there are almost diabolically conspiratorial heat so let me call myself a skeptic and i'm willing to learn welcome criticism i don't mind these terms of being a distant conspiracy theories those are all throwaway terms as obama says off my shoulder. don't be fooled by that. there are much worse terms. coming thank you so much for speaking with us thank you.

welcome to the sports thank you for joining me and this is what we have coming up. leading the way the defending champions act possibly win it in for metal leg magnitogorsk top of the kontinental hockey league. while skiing laden rushes all the claims her first big success by winning fifteen kilometer individual races in the moscow region. and the saints marjon in new orleans come from behind to beat the atlanta falcons seventeen fourteen playoff spot in the n.f.l. . start with ice hockey where defending champions are gone top of the kontinental hockey league after beating wrestler manager goes away three nil and boss have previously lost three times this season but three goals in the second period because sounds like victory elsewhere so barely make it over time to beat struggling that's like novokuznetsk two one one that he makes were three one

winners of a belief this guy had no problems against look his new graphic here in las vegas if you don't fall to me right game i got to score a call late in the period three to get in i regret. staying on the ice but moving to germany a hockey where the all star team of the n.h.l. has left the us to take part in exhibition tour cancelled in pick up off reports. well the junior national team ready to drop the ball cleanly at the world championships in the us another team from russia is about to start their campaign in north america russia probably has as many hockey players as brazil has footballers and this team called the red stars was formed from the best players in the m.h.o. a youth branch of the continental hockey league we consider that our world is very small right now because new information technology is that it's important for us to . be other. our partners. competitors in this

process to develop a general ha i however the extreme weather conditions nearly spoiled the tour as the team couldn't leave for the us on the twenty sixth of december and spend the whole day in the airport so one feet short of the six mentioned band had to be cancelled how i want to fly to get back and share you and the red stars when you landed in boston on the twenty eight and started playing straight away after two matches in the us they make sure all star team will have to canada for three more games however the tour is not only about promoting the league the other one is to have the right practice for a player or for them to understand what is its north american journey hotkey. north american ranks and north american attitudes to hopping on the other hand in such a show or in north american people. what is that russian for hockey how we play it all of the players will gain valuable experience with international matches and

probably get a chance to be called international teams. the m.h.l. is just two years old and it's a great opportunity for us to play abroad rather trailblazers and depending on the foreman's such too is will either become a regular occurrence is a not you don't need for a start this journey is not to. get to win anyway it will be there interesting to his family is in canada. despite it being an inaugural event this tour is already a success as it marks a new step in russia cooperating with their north american counterparts and the development of junior hockey in russia can stay in but out of our team. skiing now and all going to has won the fifteen kilometer individual race at the cars and of course track event in the moscow region the victory also ensures the russian has qualified for the prestigious three stage tour disc a tournament which starts this weekend because the rest of the participants have to compete not only with each other but also the treacherous weather conditions as

well the track was covered with ice and this is how to work hard not to fall over the highest ranked group was the last to start. top the standings throughout eventually winning the race by a thirty seconds from places trival and afterwards the twenty nine year old said it was a big triumph for her. you know it's a very important tournament for me now i've qualified for the door diski and still held to get into the national team for the world championships fortunately i managed to cope with the track football and while andrei arshavin and roman pavlyuchenko are now grabbing the headlines in the english premier league they'll still have some way to go to match and they can reach a vamp or feat caught up with a former manchester united star who looks back at his time abroad as well as a future coaching career in russia. thank you very much for joining me it was told tell me what you're up to at the moment sort of a taking sort of coaching badges for a future career as a head coach. just to work and so you can be written to him small to talk to those

you all want to call it's my contract finished lol. welcome to the new job but it certainly is a route because normally so breaks players or famous acts players such as self they try and take a route straight into a premier league club but you. know division of overthrow it's now a second division club. why did you choose this route to not go to it's my opinion that this is a good idea of how to work starting a small club because if you see too many coaches when there's. problems with. zob. but it would have been your season we can position can shape. good good good lots good team really really enjoy what you is cooking it's a lot different to being a player obviously i mean how frustrating is it sometimes when you're playing you

can always try to get your ideas across on the field but when you coaching you that you're dependent on eleven people on the field playing how you want to you how frustrating is that at times. is a big difference when you play in a coaching because we need some. more concentration. you need. good contact with players if you. good contact with players is a good atmosphere in this alone which is important for the team important for the player so important for the coach what is happening is my team in the zoo is. good. good good team good lots good up must be understood all while we. are season. fourteen in position this season and second really important for us i mean obviously for me also i am a man united states other big clubs around europe you must have quite

a few coaching tapes to still keep in contact with likes of alex ferguson etc a recent concert with alex where. you learned to play champions league. final in moscow again shows she. would feel a little bit just pushing the ball. well saw second game play against. still contact with players and old players he. feel. if paul scholes got in there all. i still. remember a good four years when you know manchester united there's. a club. good good players. to play together with his players but a lot of your former teammates like the steve bruce. they're actually going home to have very successful managerial careers i mean if you can call it that would be

marcie's for instance the remark asking for advice they give you tips or no it's not really going to work with a lot of people because larry see. you should play munchers united or mark hughes more. molecules. of course contact with him to miss it in a way i mean the best times of your life do you think when you're playing in england yeah he said because it's a nice country and. good good for us people will feel this important for any any county when. people are football ok thanks very much for your time you're welcome thank you very much neal. american football mad in the n.f.l. the new orleans saints have clinched a spot in the playoffs after coming back to win seventeen fourteen is atlanta who had been the only unbeaten team at home in the n.f.c. you're losing ten seven to the field to where we picked it up and

a costly mistake by drew grease but didn't want her head to quarterbacks make this court fight a falcon twenty davis returned to section twenty six yards for touchdown passes under four minutes remaining grease completed a six yard touchdown pass to jimmy graham to give new orleans the lead which they didn't really question the saints won seventeen fourteen qualifying for the playoffs with a chance to defend their super bowl title. hunt finally moving to the water where wild on still haven't crossed the finish line in first place in a dramatic sixty six edition of the sydney to hobart yacht race but the boat's nice ice is possible disqualification after the race committee revealed it had launched a protest over the crew's use of the high frequency radio the committee alleges that while those didn't adhere to a rule regarding the quality of radio signal strength passed the entrance to the right and international jury will meet in tasmania on wednesday to discuss the outcome and if it's decided while the it has broken the rules for time here could

be stripped the victory the true adamant no rules have been broken and skipper not richards insists while it's more squat to win. in about a better result in rugby and how about you know it is just the most amazing feeling that i was given the right result in the palm of the top right just like we were expecting and the boys. the whole thing within the margin drop and now we've got some tough situations to get out of. syria and turkey feeling of a hell of a lot better than the second we experienced last year but we're back and it's very heavy and that's all the sports news for this bill isn't by finance. culture is the same of sharks caused by the lottery the more so because the old world cup the first ten times summit is nothing new to the world and it's undeniable that it exists today however how should anti-semitism be defined.
