in 2013 snowden was working as a contractor for the n.s.a. the national security agency in interviews he said he became disillusioned with the work and had ethical concerns with the massive government surveillance programs he was working on. later that year snowden stole a trove of classified documents from the n.s.a. and leaked them to international journalists this was later dramatized in the film snowden. by the time the 1st articles based on the files were published snowden had fled to hong kong. the leaked information revealed how governments were using the online lives and devices of ordinary citizens to track listen to and take a video of them they could also read emails and text messages and it wasn't just used to catch the bad guys. they're using these here will these intentional to store the public of vital embarrassing schools by this i mean they're using the tools of mass surveillance not to find terrorists but to find the sources of journalists journalists who have written stories that were embarrassing to the government but his

then the n.s.a. . and you know trusting the situation. and at the same time those internal mechanisms. well so-called. are not the conditions that. i'm heart scribe of the united nations in a special tomorrow on counterterrorism and human rights are. described in a newspaper you mentioned also in 2008 some united states. thing letter. as a that would provide protection to mr snowden 2nd insurance route it was a war zone that states some rich russians and those who try and case after case you've seen how. and the best example is i don't know the obama and the destruction there's never been more whistleblowers charged or prosecuted or. instructions than in all u.s. history well mr to. know if if i could let me just ask you the new yorker reported today that mr snowden has claimed that he alerted more than 10 officials at the n.s.a. about what he discovered and yet he has not provided any support for this claim why is that well since dinner and supper snowden's discussion he's written of i not but what but why not say one that provide the pr

re-authorization of the fisa courts and discussions bout powerses -- powers of our d.o.j., f.b.i., n.s.a. under what's often referred to as section 215. it was interesting in the way of role reversals because for years we have been told that democrats are the real civil libertarians. they are the ones that are ying to defend privacy rights. rights of americans to think what they want, do what they want, and without being interrupted or spied upon by the federal government. yet today over and over we heard apologies basically from our democratic friends to the representive of the department of justice, the f.b.i., and national security by istration for comments some republicans. there really was no need to apologize. we weren't attacking these three individual witnesses. but there are issues that are still unresolved that many of my friends across the aisle used to be concerned about. privacy and fourth amendment rights that are supposed to protect us from improper search and seizure or spying or surveillance being one of the more important. o we had these witnesses and it was interesting

he was trying to reform the n.s.a. he was trying to change those practices and he himself has said that in the past because this book a lot has a lot to do with kind of his own personal beliefs and his own history that in the past he had a very different view of things and that view has obviously changed once he got inside and began to see what that surveillance apparatus looked like and i think a large part of that also within the book and what you understand now is that he was this pretty conservative guy was all about like what's classified as classified and this is all of this and it seems that you know part of that was his now wife and part of his that journey of learning mess other it's like when you suddenly are on 2 different sides of the aisle. you come together and you sort of have an eye opening experience and i think now looking back we're 6 years removed from the snowden leaks then what do you think are is the biggest impact that they have had on the public and the u.s. government. well it's a good questio

issue was one where the n.s.a. got hacked and some tools were taken from them whether this one specifically was them yet we don't know yet or their tools we don't know yet but the problem is. this is far more nefarious and a problem i think than facebook's data world deal with fact the data still and we've all had our data still on but this is government's been shut down think about this 22 agencies in texas alone were shut down last month all in one concerted effort in the difference here is these are not just drive by hacks these are concerted effort to find the weaknesses in these local governments and then go back in and shut them down so they break in stay there and then decide when they're going to make the attack and shut the agencies down like said last month 22 all in one you know shot so this is really i think a bigger threat because if you think we don't know who is behind these attacks and if you pay you pay if you don't you don't get your data back like atlanta happened last year but the problem is tha

this n.s.a.atement describes such a weapon as a "high-powered microwave system weapon that may have the ability to weaken, intimidate, or kill an enemy over time without leaving evidence." the statement goes on to say, "this weapon is designed to bathe a target's living quarters in microwaves." the n.s.a. disclosed this in a worker's compensation case, filed by former n.s.a. employee mike beck. >> pelley: when you look back across your career, is there any incident that leads you to believe that it could be responsible for your parkinson's disease? >> mike beck: yes. >> pelley: in the 1990s, beck and an n.s.a. coworker were on assignment overseas. years later, he says, they developed parkinson's disease at the same time. >> beck: in 1996, a colleague of mine, chuck gubete, and i traveled to a hostile country and worked there for about a week. and-- i can't say where the hostile country-- the identity of it. >> pelley: because it's still classified? >> beck: yes. >> pelley: but it was not cuba or

in 2013 snowden was working as a contractor for the national security agency or n.s.a. in interviews he'd said he'd become disillusioned and had ethical concerns about the massive government surveillance programs that were part of his assignment later that year snowden was accused of leaking classified information to the media the documents revealed the way governments were using online data from the devices of ordinary citizens to monitor their lives snowden also sees more immediate dangers on our virtual doorstep an internet giant you can look around the world today and go governments are not threat they're increasing more through with each passing year and you can say the same of these internet giants they have made an enemy public privacy they make their money by selling our lives as a product snowden's adverse or is say he's sharing of classified files that disclosed military secrets to america's enemies and endangered the u.s. agents was a reckless act snowden has been living in exile in russia ever since the u.s. wants him extradited on espionage charges he could
