NSA CRACKS DOWN AGAINST JOURNALISTS WHO SPEAK OUT AGAINST NSA SPYING
by Daniel G. J. of Story Leaks
The National Security Agency pressured Johns Hopkins University to take down a blog posting that was critical of its efforts to defeat encryption. A dean at the university asked Matthew Green, a computer science professor, to take down a blog post because it had links to articles exposing the NSA’s attempts to crack encryption programs in The Guardian, The New York Times, and the website ProPublica.org.
The attacks on free speech and journalism that questions NSA techniques spells a very dark future of internet regulation, where top alternative news sites would be threatened for exposing the NSA. And as Anthony Gucciardi has highlighted in a special report, the corrupt elements inside the US government are most definitely losing to the power of the real media.
