A decade after Snowden exposed NSA’s mass surveillance in cooperation with the British GCHQ, only about 1 percent of the documents have been published, but three major facts can finally be revealed thanks to a doctoral thesis in applied cryptography by Jacob Appelbaum.

    Thanks so much for crossposting this. This is dismal news, indeed, and I wondered what brand of Jake. He was harassed every time he traveled internationally, by the US government. To say we are literally a fascist nation is no hyperbole, by any stretch of the imagination. And yet, most of my compatriots would deny anything published by Snowden or Applebaum in 2013, let alone now. A pity there is no god to lend help and that we refuse to help ourselves.
