[bestbits] RE: [webwewant] Surveillance discovered in Brazil

[michael gurstein]

What seems to be rapidly emerging is that this is a multi-centred problem
(you didn't mention Canada and the other members of the "5 eyes" group) and
of course the actions of more traditional state actor surveillance players
such as China, Russia, Saudi Arabia etc..  All of this is requiring of some
sort of global response and presumably in the ideal world (and as presumed
goals for ourselves) the development of some sort of global means and
mechanisms, tools and institutions for the privacy protection of all of us
"foreigners"/citizens of the Universal States of the Internetworked. (USI
for short) :)

Subject: Re: [webwewant] Surveillance discovered in Brazil

 

Coming on top of revelations about the UK, India, Finland and Germany  -
this really underscores the global nature of the problem. Nothing that Frank
LaRue didn't already warn about, but interesting that so much more is
starting to come to light. 

 

Because Tim B-L is a prominent name in the UK we're likely to get asked for
media comment on the UK spying revelations. This will provide another
opportunity to reinforce key messages agreed on these lists earlier. Also,
if any UK-based organisations want to work on a coordinated response, please
let me know, we'd be keen to contribute. 

 

Cheers

Anne

I will keep an eye on it. There is not much about it yet...
