making the distinction between the claimed meta data related

these two very different kinds and levels of incursions and
therefore in my view a global civil society statement should make
the distinction clear.... And of course I also insist to harp on the
fact that while US authorities have made so many statements
stressing that the content related to US citizens was never

<font face="Verdana"> Kevin, If you ask me, I believe that
the collection of direct content related info on non US
citizens was in fact much larger than what most suspect at
present. See Snowdon's latest statements at <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://edition.cnn.com/2013/06/12/politics/nsa-leak" target="_blank">http://edition.cnn.com/2013/06/12/politics/nsa-leak</a><br>
<br>
Of particular significance is this quote "</font><font face="Verdana"> "We hack network backbones -- like huge
Internet routers, basically -- that give us access to the
communications of hundreds of thousands of computers
without having to hack every single one." (Snowdon is in
an extremly precarious position, and must be careful about
what he says, and its veracity.)<br>
<br>
Now, network backbone hacking seems to go beyond accessing
the servers of Microsoft, Google, Fscebook and 6 other
companies that have been under focus. We still do not know
the processes and outcomes of these direct network
backbone hacking , and it may be contained in the numerous
documents that Snowdon shared and newspapers are still
keeping from us. <br>
<br>
Also worrying for me is your reference to FISA text in an
earlier email that "outside US to outside US" content
could be hacked with no court order. Snowdon further says
in the above piece that even universties and students were
targetted. I have a feeling that under conditions
requiring no court orders, US intelligence guys simply
went berserk over the technical possibilities that they
found at their hand, Every piece of evidence points to
this, and I would like to go by this presumption till
compelling eivdence to the contrary is shown. <br>
<br>
We are making a civil society statement, we are not making
a judicial pronouncement. The evidence we got at present
is enough for making such a statement. We are happy to be
responded to by US authorities - who have not bothered to
utter one word about direct content surveillance of non US
citizens - that what we say is not true, and this and this
is the proof of that...<br>
<br>
I would like to keep the text I suggested in, with
possibly Gene's amendments...<br>

For what it's worth, here's a post that I and my
colleague Emily wrote yesterday on the same point,
urging our domestic audience and policymakers to pay
more attention to the international/human rights
implications, entitled "It's not just about US: How
the NSA Threatens Human Rights Internationally":
<div><br>

<div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>However, I think it's worth noting at this
point that because of the various company
denials (some of them quite strenuous and
clear), because of the Washington Post
stepping back from some of its reporting, and
because of conflicting reports in other major
news outlets like the New York Times and
Wired, we actually *do not know* how broad the
data collection being done via "PRISM" under
the FISA Amendments Act actually is; in other
words, we have no idea whether or how
proportionate it is. It very well might be
incredibly broad, which is certainly my fear;
it may also be more targeted than we suspect.
Meanwhile, the other conduct that's been
exposed--the disclosure of phone records--was
in regard to calls made to or from or inside
the US. So, for that reason, I agree with
Gene that it would be preferable that we have
a little wiggle room--we actually *don't know*
that there has been "large scale" access to
non-US persons content at this point, even if
we strongly suspect it. Furthermore, no one
has said there was "no access obtained to
content related to US citizens"; they've
simply said (which is BS) "no one's listening
to your calls", in reference to the PATRIOT
215 order for phone records. So, I'd suggest
editing Parminder's suggestion into something
like...</div>

<br>
Greetings
everyone<br>
<br>
Content is
coming along
well.<br>
<br>
Jeremy, in
response to
your question,
what about
giving people
until<br>
21h00 GMT/UTC
today,
Thursday. Then
you can close
the text,
finalise it,<br>
and release
for sign-ons
and give
people until
16h00 GMT/UTC
Friday for<br>
sign ons and
then we can
send it off
before the end
of the
business day<br>
in Washington
DC (will be
12h00 in DC).<br>
<br>
That will
accommodate
Parminder's
request, but
still enable
us to get<br>
enough sign
ons and get
the letter to
Washington DC
on Friday.
Only<br>
region that
will have a
shortish
period for
sign ons will
be the
Americas.<br>
<br>
Will this
work?<br>
<br>
Anriette<br>
