"Privacy is necessary for an open society in the electronic age. Privacy is not secrecy. A private matter is something one doesn't want the whole world to know, but a secret matter is something one doesn't want anybody to know. Privacy is the power to selectively reveal oneself to the world."

The Debate is Over: the NSA is Weakening Encryption

"Is the NSA weakening encryption? Numerous cybersecurity professionals and enthusiasts have asked themselves that question for years. Nobody really knows the NSA’s true motives. Even post-Snowden, most of the organization’s methods are a mystery to the general public."

Why Would The Government Want to Spy On Me?

"After all the debating over privacy rights violation, justification, and the technical hows of government spying, there is one question to answer: why? Glenn Sulmasy of CNN argues here that the U.S. government’s motivation for collecting information on individuals is genuinely about protecting the citizens from “Jihadists”. But considering the U.S. government has a lot to lose here, it’s a little naive to take their explanation blindly. Let’s go a little deeper."

DHS, The Little NSA

"Sadly, the NSA isn’t the only sinister government organization spying on Americans. When the NSA’s surveillance powers are eventually reigned in, it is unlikely that the established surveillance state will simply stand down. Instead, the focus will likely shift to another sinister organization. The public will think the surveillance will have stopped, when in reality, it will simply be done under a new banner."

How Police Listen to You Part 4: Range-R, the Device That Helps Cops See Through Walls

Thibault Serlet

"In order to determine the locations of the occupants of a building, all an officer has to do is hold the RANGE-R against the wall. The distances of all moving objects within a 160° range is then revealed to the user via the device’s LED screen. This allows police to tell if anyone is hiding inside a building, perhaps with the intention of ambushing officers."
