NSA: Snowden Leaks Caused Loss of 1,000 Targets, Including Terrorists
[Breitbart] In an interview with National Public Radio, the deputy director of the National Security Agency Richard Ledgett claimed the NSA has lost track of about 1,000 intelligence targets since 2013 because of NSA leak Edward Snowden's revelations, including a terrorist group that was planning attacks against the United States and Europe.The good news, in the deputy director's estimation, is that much of the information disclosed by Snowden is becoming obsolete. "The amount that matters from a technical capabilities sense has decreased over time," he told NPR. Good news? "Technical capabilities" to include communications intercepts from non-secure Blackberries as well, but at this point....'what difference does it make?' Posted by: Besoeker 2016-03-18 |
