Great source of disinformation

Can’t leave things alone, and have to piece together a little disinformation of my own.

US needs 'digital warfare force'

960th Network Security Squadron

The US has set up specialised detachments dealing with IT problems

The head of America's National Security Agency says that America needs to build a digital warfare force for the future, according to reports.

Lt Gen Keith Alexander, who also heads the Pentagon's new Cyber Command, outlined his views in a report for the House Armed Services subcommittee.

In it, he stated that the US needed to reorganise its offensive and defensive cyber operations.

So, the land of the brave and the dead buffaloes, that have openly broken all forms of international law through kidnapping individuals, revoking life, liberty and the pursuit of anything to various groups and individuals in pursuit of “the American Way” is going to expect you and me to believe that all those spy satellites and telecommunication eavesdropping services do not already put them well ahead of every body else on invading not only their own Citizen’s privacy but everyone elses?

Please, …

The worrying problem is the apathy for the real loss of your privacy.

People didn’t move to encrypting their email when they all knew that the US was eaves dropping, now we people’s whole lives on the Internet being assessed and reviewed by the US machine. They’ve been tapping Australian international phone traffic since Woomera, and who knows whether the Australian Government is turning a co-operative blind eye for spying on Australian citizens internal communications.

I wonder what will finally take us over the edge for end-to-end encrypted communications (e.g. email, phone, web browsing, et. al.)

Encrypting your email is so easy these days, but it’s really hard to communicate in an encrypted manner because people find it too ‘difficult’ to use the additional tools to provide this encryption.
