breaking up before we go to air the NSA
is apparently said to have exploited the heart
lead bugger for its own intelligence uses the serb broke early today from
Bloomberg News
the US National Security Agency our good friends at the NSA
new for at least two years about this new heart
be heart bleed bug and they knew about it
made it vulnerable made website smaller role that two-thirds of the web sites
across the world are vulnerable you that use this particular
a open since a mess up the with that
open SSL anyway I'm the thing that gets me the most about this particular issue
is that the NSA
new about this bug they did not tell
Americans about this bug and instead exploited
for themselves we have but statement from my
a former Air Force cyber officer who says that flies in the face of the
agency's comments
that defense comes first they're gonna be completely shredded by the computer
security complete community for this
I'm shocked at the NASA would exploit a security vulnerability for its own use
32 how was that were dashed my head I am a crappy a morsel course they do that's
actually
about two hours ago I got an email from Tumbler which was one of the affected
site and my tumbler
which is Ruben report that under da comes at you want to see what happened
to some that were compromise you can look at mine which normally has a nice
template that I paid for it look sharp in goodnight videos in budget up
it's completely upside down right now Rizzo this it actually something real
you know a lot of times we hear about these things
or like I did it affect anybody the password get screwed up well this one
actually
is legit sorry a slight they've been saying ever sense
a AdWords notin a revealed what the NSA's been doing their defense is always
been that we're doing this for your security we're doing this for you
this is going to keep you safe for those latter threats out there diane feinstein
famously said on meet the press.
there's they have big bobs that go boom an SL you gotta watch out for that
so we're so if they're supposed to keep us safe but the thing that woulda kept
us the most say
is when the NSA discovered this glitch
in the open SSL but they would have alerted everyone
and said hey fix it because now you're all vulnerable
and there's going to be other governments can now get your stuff
there's going to be criminals who can get your stuff
but they didn't do that because they don't give a shit
about your security and they don't give a shit about our defense
they only give a shit about doing the ferry is stopped but because they're
human beings
which is why you keep people like that on a short leash
and which is why we have the fourth amendment and you don't let people do
stuff like that
because this is what happens they're just human beings
and they don't give a shit about helping America
or your privacy because if they did they would have been medially done something
about it and they didn't
right they basically are supposed to be in charge a
ensuring our security as americans and of course that's exactly the opposite
said they did I mean you really have to understand what they did here so they
found out that this thing existed
also me i'm not only did they not corrected they then took advantage
up the fact that there was this massive security flaw
so it's not just it's what you're saying but it's not just
that they want to suppose the keeper say they actually are using Bowl our own
vulnerabilities
in our system to attack us so it's really multi-layered no pun intended I
mean we've got another
the idea behind this %uh the NSA that you know they were supposed to be
ferreting out all love the security vulnerabilities and the National
a Internet you know in our own internet an the fact that they
let that they knew about this not only that they knew about it and use it to
attack americans you know on our own internet in our own
less secure passwords they also left a smaller bottle for an attack
right now what part love national defense is that
bears the NSA unable to understand you know you're supposed to be defending us
against foreign attack in it you just exposed all of us to
porn yes 0 if the quick is no quick so it's affecting up to two-thirds about
the entire worlds web sites
so this was about protecting us in any way two-thirds this wasn't just the
couple website this wasn't just a couple
things that they might want to track you are like Facebook two-thirds obtain your
bank account that your credit cards I mean it's a number of different sides in
their place at that you can go on the Internet where you can look up whether
out your specific website your specific accounts your purse
specific yeah I should thank their national has a great graphic that that
lists everything that you know when you do need to change it for this mean you
don't need to change for that one
so you know that's a great place to look it up I was blown away
by the fact that you know this is this is the foundation
I love our society today you can't get a job without having some kinda access to
the Internet
you know you can't get a credit card you can't get a banking system you know you
basically have to have access to the Internet in order to conduct
pretty much every aspect of life today you know if you want to participate
and prosper and move forward in the economy
today you got to have this access and for it to be so vulnerable
so knowingly vulnerable to put Americans dad at risk like this
it seems to me like there ought to be a little bit more than just this
oh now look what they've done a personal multilayer what was the pun
well it were it at many levels not as I get back in a ball
the I literally at many levels of security and many levels I'm screwed up
but nothing at this time it appears I like that yeah
what a said I suppose it here's what makes it even worst as he is that
it it's not like it would have been nice when the NSA stumbled on this glitch in
the system that exposed everybody in the country
and then they big bass stumbled on it when hey maybe we should to inform
people
to help us have a more secure internet in the United States
so at that time it's not even their decision to make they're charged with
and they're supposed to when they buy a bong ability
in our internet they're supposed to alert everybody that's part of what
they're supposed to be doing
and they didn't do any of that stuff so again and what's known in criminal
guys like Mike Rogers and Dianne Feinstein who been protecting these
people have been do is go
and they at they want to say nine fights on a bike ride you know what what we got
you got all the difference when the good guys and the bad guys and yet
and the MSA they're not the bad guys they just seem like the bad guys because
they're constantly traveling
over the fourth amendment and rehabilitating our privacy in right
that's why they seem like the bad guys because they're always breaking the law
