"From the 1950s onwards, the CIA rigged elections, destabilised governments through fake information, and organised violent coups, in Italy, Greece, Syria, Iran, Guatamala, South Vietnam, Indonesia, and Chile. In all, the US ran covert operations to otherthrow 66 foreign governments, and in 26 cases, they succeeded."

On Friday, the US attorney’s office in Southern Florida issued 30 #subpoenas to individuals such former #CIA director #JohnBrennan, & other fmr intelligence officials. Shortly before Executive Assistant United States Attorney Manolo Reboso signed off on the subpoenas, 2 career US attorneys resigned because they “felt like there was something they could not take part in because it would violate their ethical responsibilities,” acc/to MSNBC.

Lest we forget the "soft" coup orchestrated by entrenched vested interests that changed Australia forever.
Whitlam was a true social reformer. Watery "Albo" isn't fit to lick Gough's shoes and the current version of the ALP does little more than tread water. Mustn't rock the boat or spook the sheep or trigger the ire of the entrenched vested interests that crucified the Whitlam government! #australia #auspol #1975coup #UK #USA #CIA

#Transparency From #Spy Agencies Now: Write to your Senators

"Top intelligence officials should be just as accountable to the people as any other governmental office. But right now, #Congress is weighing a provision that would end Senate confirmation for the chief lawyers at both the #CIA and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence."

action.aclu.orgTransparency From Spy Agencies NowWe cannot afford to weaken transparency and public oversight of the intelligence community. Join the ACLU in demanding Senators reject the provision to remove confirmation hearings for spy agencies.

Durante décadas, la CIA no solo espiaba: controlaba lo que veías en la tele y el cine.

Carl Bernstein, el periodista que destapó Watergate, lo documentó en 1977.
Más de 400 periodistas colaboraban directamente con la Agencia.
Hoy, las pantallas son infinitas... pero el guion puede que siga siendo el mismo.

@Mer__edith No.

The fact that @signalapp CHOSE to host the most expensive way possible at a #US military contrator and in spittibgbditance to #CIA & #NSA is so deliberate, it makes #ANØM aka. #OperationIronside aka. #OperationTrojanShield professional by comparison for taking the time and effort to setup shell companies and servers in #Lithuania.

Or to ask bluntly: What Guarantees are there to prevent the #Trump Regime from taking down #Signal once it outlived it's usefulness at skirting #SubshineLaws and #Accountability and #Recordkeeping laws?

  • Even if we assume you and all the coders are willing to "choose death over surrendering the keys" or implementing #Govware #Backdoors (which are wholly unnecessary with you demanding #PII like #PhoneNumbers and #Room641A-Style equipment doing the whole #metadata shit)…

If you don't own and physically control the hardware it's run on, the mere existance of #Signal depends on the goodwill of #JeffBezos!
