NSA Gets Real Time Access to Your Email

NSA Gets Real Time Access to Your Email ~ Prison Planet | December 20, 2007 ~ Kurt Nimmo ~ It was inevitable: the Advanced Research Projects Agency, later to become DARPA, right out of the Pentagon, created the internet. The RAND Corporation invented modern packet switching. DARPA and ARPANET recruited Vint Cerf of Stanford University to work on TCP/IP. Cerf is regarded as "the father of the Internet," or maybe that should be the military-NSA snoop network. Now we learn NSA increasingly controls SSL, now called Transport Layer Security, the cryptographic protocol that provides secure communications on the internet for web browsing, e-mail, instant messaging, and other data transfers. In other words, increasingly, the NSA is reading your email and everything you type in your IM client and in real time, that is to say there is no delay in the timeliness of the information, the underwear drawer snoopers have the ability to read your IMs as you type them."Certain privacy/full session SSL email hosting services have been purchased/changed operational control by NSA and affiliates within the past few months, through private intermediary entities," notes Cryptome . Hushmail: now fully owned by private entity NSA affiliate; has had informal relationship with NSA for a number of years that effectively provided NSA with real time access to Hushmail's hosting servers. 
Safe-mail.net: Israeli-based, ironically privately lauded by NSA and US military several years ago for its sound implementation of SendMail with SSL webmail GUI frontend. Now provides mail server info to NSA in real time. 
Guardster.com (SSH/SSL proxy): NSA contractors have "bought" full access rights to Guardster servers a few days ago. Separate but related: facilitated port sniffing of hosting servers at Everyones Internet, on NSA affiliates' behalf, has been ongoing for a number of months now. Geekspeak aside, what this means is that the NSA is buying up key technology in an effort to snoop you even more closely. If this trend continues, we may as well call the internet the NSAnet. Moreover, according to Cryptome's research, if you own "security" software produced by Zone Alarm, Symantec, and MacAfee, you are in essence throwing out a welcome mat for the NSA and its bevy of underwear drawer sniffing goons. "All facilitate Microsoft's NSA-controlled remote admin access via IP/TCP ports 1024 through 1030," and without a "security flag," that it to say you will be none the wiser. It won't be long now before Winston Smith's telescreen is barking orders.>>>>>>>Fire Society, since they've got their faces in our personal business and public blogging sites, let's give them an eyeful of what's really on our minds: LEAVE OUR PRIVACY AND LIBERTIES THE HELL ALONE AND GO FIND SOME REAL TERRORISTS !!!

I am afraid these past 6-7 years we have lost a lot of our freedoms that our parents and grandparents and great grandparents etc fought and died for. 

What I just HATE is to hear people say "well, they can tap my phones or search my records, read my emails or whatever, I have nothing to hide"...STUPID STUPID STUPID--those people should be deported to a country like Iran who can totally spy on their lives if they care so little for the freedoms this country has always promised and are guarenteed in our constitution.
