the Guardian has recently revealed that a program called excuse score
and I wanted to give you some details on that I think we're enormously important
in the
implications are that program that the not a lot of the
establishment press is talking about unsurprisingly well
%uh the Guardian explains the essay both in training materials
the program called excuse core is its widest reaching system
for developing intelligence from the internet so all the things you've heard
before about prism et cetera well
way to your love X ke score cuz by their own admission this is the widest
reaching system for gathering information so let's find out more about
one presentation claims the program covers nearly
everything a typical user does on the Internet including the content
have emails web sites visited and searchers
as well as their metadata now this is exactly what we've been telling you all
along is exactly the government was a of another new number of course of course
not they keep saying no it's okay
because we're only doing this to foreigners and not to americans
I was a course you're an American communicating with a foreigner
like god forbid you should send me mail outside the country in which case we can
grab all your information
plus really have a certain degree of certainty that your foreigner
and plus we make mistakes all the time James clapper said yes
we have had violations above the rule that it must be foreigners
and Senator Ron Wyden from organ is said the violations are much bigger
much worse than they're letting on %uh but it were supposed to be rest assured
that they've got a lotta seekers in fact let's keep going you see
so low so call safeguards and how they're actually implemented in a second
Gordon explains Ellis can also use X ke score
and other NSA systems 15 ongoing real time interception oven individuals
Internet activity so if it's not about having get your information for the past
you actually watch you do it real time so you go on to a certain website
and you have to do you certain things they could be viewing it right along
with you
a very comforting why hello there Big Brother how you do it
under US law that essay is recorded 10 and
individualize Faiza war all with a target of their surveillance is a US
person so nice
no such what is required for intercepting the communications
americans with foreign targets
no just explaining to you well if they're communicating with a foreign
target
if they actually have a foreign target and they suspect a move
some think absolutely get a warrant get the guys
information that he's communicating with nobody has any trouble then fed we want
them to do that
because we want to get bomb we want you to follow actual targets
but X ke score provides a technological capability if not the legal authority
to target even US persons for extensive
I'll try some bills without a warrant provided the some
identifying information such as their email or IP address
is known to the analyst so
I well you know we were supposed to target foreigners
another hand if we want to we just look up all your information
and remember there are 0 1.3 million people with access to classified
information
it's unclear the thousands of people who were contractors not even government
officials
but private contractors who have access to excuse cortical lookup all over your
data
without a warrant we continue else can also search by name
telephone number IP address keywords the language in which the Internet activity
was conducted
or the type of browser use all in other words an almost
any way they want they can research they say to search
for emails and Alice using
XT score enters the individuals e-mail address into simple online search form
although the justification for the search and the time period for which the
email spur saw
so understand the implications of that digits a form that they fill up
so if you have rush limbaugh's email Spurlin
you get all this information if you have
rachel Maddow's email if you eventually to Julie's email your Brad Pitt's email
you Miley Cyrus's email
you have your ex wife's email your current husband's email
I think some Alice might have that information you put it in
you see the content of their emails you see on the website they've been to
you see every other piece of data that we just talked about but nobody would
abuse that right
putting them aside for a second put aside political persecution et cetera
that's something to be significantly worried about but
we've even if you get beyond that look up all the people who have access to
this
you tell me none of them are great music
I we were seconds away from the paparazzi realizing
the thing if celebrities information is this way and how much are they gonna pay
to
all those different and we're going to try to figure out which contractor to
build out this form without a warrant
the gym that information we hope the government tracks them down at cetera
and from 8 even put aside the celebrities
they're not gonna look into people they know
whether they're if they think their husband or their wife is cheating on
them and they're not going to get all their private information
your stupid if you think that I keep going back to the store eggs is really
instructive
ABC News back in 2008 broke a story about our warrantless wiretapping
in Iraq we were looking for al Qaeda from time to time we were
but what we merely castrated on was the phone sex that
our own american soldiers were having and everybody would gather around and
listen
to the private conversations you know why cuz they're human beings
idiom that kinda power they will abuse it now
at ton of people have that kind of nearly unlimited power
to look into our private lives not only a one last look
Dec ski school program also allows an analyst to learn IP addresses
a every person who visits any website
they hella specifies so for was a scary enough
that they could target you specifically they could also do to reverse
all let me pick a random website outta nowhere in new porn Dhaka
bingo that and a yet every single person who's got that website
and then once they have that information thing go back and see
everything else you've done online but nobody would ever abuse that right
no just trust the government and up army of private contractors they have hired
that they will never do anything wrong by the way does the same exact people
who say
that damned private contractor at or snowden I can't believe you get access
to all this and then revealed
remember he revealed that so we know what our government is up to
the guys who abuse it for their own personal purposes
are not going to be so Kat alright
now we are all vulnerable thanks for this program
and yet still the establishment says don't worry everything's just gonna be
okay
now your head to the government and just move along
