They aren't already?
- stjohnswarts 6y agoNo they aren't, and unless you have proof that they do it's a conspiracy theory on the level of aliens and the Rothschild Illuminati.
- im3w1l 6y agoDo you want some real paranoia fuel? Foreign governments are likely to have moles with log access.
- juanani 6y agoPRISM should be enough proof, doubt we will see anymore. What's all this concern about the Annunaki?
- gens 6y agoRoom 641A is a similar thing.
- _jal 6y agoIs true. And there is more that can't be proven. But it is also true that Google and ATT are very different companies. The Snowden leaks lead Google to encrypt internal links, once they realized NSA were tapping them; ATT built NSA Room 641A. But this is rather more complicated than that; I'd bet money there are are people employed at Google who wear more than one hat[1], as there have been at tech companies throughout the history of Silicon Valley. And practices at Google makes NSA's life easier - Organizing the World's Advertising Targets is actually a remarkably compatible goal.
- thatguy0900 6y agoIt's funny, it even has an ominous name and everything, fits perfectly in a list with aliens and illuminati
- barbacoa 6y agoUnder prism google gave direct access in real time to all their data to the nsa including search history.
- ggggtez 6y agoCorrect me if I'm wrong, but wasn't PRISM done without the knowledge of Google? Wasn't the whole scandal that the NSA was wiretapping everyone including Google's internal corp network?
- barbacoa 6y agoThe government has the ability to issue national security letters using its expansive surveillance power granted under section 215 of the patriot act. These also have very restrictive gag orders against disclosure. Rank and file employees would be unaware of these searches. If a big tech company went full nuclear with their lawyers it's possible that they could have gotten the whole patriot act ruled unconstitutional. But they didn't. They all cooperated. PRISM took this one step further and was a project where google (and everyone else) gave the government direct searchable access to their databases. There is no reason to think this isn't still going on.
- mda 6y agoThis is also a myth.
- Proziam 6y agoCitation needed
- IncRnd 6y agoThat's ludicrous, misleading, and extremely unhelpful almost to the point of dishonesty. Look for the documents leaked by Glenn Greenwald and informatin on PRISM.
- TheSpiceIsLife 6y agoOnly if you consider The Government a homogeneous whole. Now some more bureaucrats and sys admins can take a peek too.
