Report: NSA intercepted electronics shipments to secretly install malicious software, hardware

The sophisticated hacking unit of the National Security Agency (NSA) has intercepted electronics shipments in order to covertly install malware and hardware that allows for backdoor access to computers, according to a new report.

This latest revelation comes after a federal judge ruled the NSA’s mass surveillance program to be legal, the White House review panel sharply criticized many NSA programs and it was revealed that the NSA paid an influential security company to compromise their pr....

The report, published by Germany’s Der Spiegel, reveals that the secretive NSA Office of Tailored Access Operation (TAO) actually physically compromises many electronics before they reach their final destination.

TAO, which Der Spiegel calls “the NSA’s top operative unit — something like a squad of plumbers that can be called in when normal access to a target is blocked” works closely with the FBI and CIA.

The group can reportedly direct shipping deliveries to their own secret workshops, a technique called “interdiction,” when a target individual, agency or company orders a new computer or accessory.

Try Ubuntu before you install it

If you’re not yet sure about installing Ubuntu, you can try it out without affecting your current system.

How to run Ubuntu from a DVD or USB stick

I'm about to buy a new desktop that will certainly have Linux on it. I'll also check what to do with those bugs.

yes yes, I'm done w/ winblows myself Less, on the last windows machine in the house right now, but I think this one too is going to Kubuntu 12 this afternoon...so tired of java and flash crashing my browser now.

Building up a fake identity 1) Get a mobil phone, but not in your name 2) use that phone number to verify a gmail account

Now NSA will create a folder on this fake name

Just don't walk around with that telephone and your regular telephone in your pocket. It won't take long that they figure out the two phones always moving together belong to a one person. Also leaving that phone with a battery in at home will expose your home. The telephone must be out of your home and away from you, preferably circulating around with several people not linked to you.

Microsoft and Google are undermining the very essense of human values. They don't care, and people like Mike Rogers are no better than the Nazis. Of course Mike Rogers would like Snowden to be killed (search "Mike Rogers Snowden killed")

“Ed Snowden isn’t a whistleblower; he’s a traitor,” McKeon said.

We have a bigger question than Snowden here: How more treasonous can politicians and president possible be before being put to Court? (They are losing legitimacy)

ok, officially running ubuntu 12.04 now, firefox seems not to crash anymore, lovely, having some dual screen issues and also cant get audio directed out to the SPDIF output (7.1 surround), all I got is stereo analog for the moment which is bizarre because its still running out of the coax SPDIF... gotta remember all the command lines once again...lol Minor issues compared to the winblows problems ;)

Is lying good? CIA/NSA is telling that is a skill to be cultivated. They themselves hate liars, and CIA run lie-detector tests on all employees, a single lie is one too much for CIA. CIA is obsessed about people not telling them the whole truth. NSA will want all data - names, emails, addresses, bank accounts - to be verified, so their data is not corrupted. 

(When we give them corrupted data .. and people are persecuted by such data ... things will be funny. Today we understand not only Facebook, but also Hotmail, Yahoo and Gmail data are going into NSA databases, sorted by identities. Microsoft and Google are such big liars)

Just noting a hidden meaning of that "intelligence" service; C = See, I = eye, A = pyramid with a cap stone. It  all together equals the all seeing eye on top of a pyramid scam, a very image of the decadent global society run by pirates, drug dealers and usurers.

They really aren't that smart, are they LP? I mean really, if there weren't so many dumb asses, TPTB would not be in charge to begin with.
