[liberationtech] Airline Shutdown Because of Loss of Internet Service?
This is probably not a Liberation issue directly but I'm not sure where else to address it... Sunday I was flying (Porter Airlines--small short hop Canadian carrier) from NYC to Ottawa, ON with a plane change in Toronto. When we arrived in Toronto we were informed that because the Internet was down planes were not able to land or depart. The company's service was completely shut down for roughly 4 hours until the Internet service was restored (presumably by their ISP). I understand that other airlines have had similar experiences recently. My question... how exactly is Internet service so intertwined with flight operations that service can function only if the Internet is operational? (And I guess the Liberation angle... if this is now pervasive for all airlines what is the hackable element of all this and where are the points of vulnerability etc.etc.? M -- Too many emails?

[liberationtech] Subject: Hoping to learn more about the 2009 Iran Green Movement
Hi Zak, As far as I know, it is hard to have a thorough picture of what was used by whom and when. Also, I am not too sure there is a common acknowledgement of when the Green Movement went dim, or if the current opposition is still somehow it or something that should be called differently. Anyway, I think you will find very interesting bits and pieces in the list below: - The Agonistic Social Media: Cyberspace in the Formation of Dissent and Consolidation of State Power in Postelection Iran (2011), Babak Rahimi http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/10714421.2011.597240#preview - Blogistan: The Internet and Politics in Iran, A.

Re: [liberationtech] Airline Shutdown Because of Loss of Internet Service?
One thing that comes to mind right away is that more more companies are replacing private-circuit based WANs by Internet-VPNs, thus, when the Internet is down, their network is down; even more, if they depend on any SaaS (from Salesforce.com for CRM to Maximo for Asset management), or, in general, XaaS (AWS, Rackspace, etc.), for critical business systems, a fast-growing trend, the Internet is their backbone.

Dear Libtech, We've waited a long time for this kind of FISA court document to leak - we see clearly evidence that there is still dragnet surveillance that is ongoing - the current order leaked is still valid as of today, it will continue to be valid until the middle of July. This specifically includes Americans without any international or even inter-city connections! To quote: wholly within the United States, including local telephone calls It specifically says a lot more: TOP SECRET//SI//NOFORN Declassify on: 12 April 2038 ... IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, the Custodian of Records shall produce to the National Security Agency (NSA) upon service of this Order, and continue production on an ongoing daily basis thereafter for the duration of this Order, unless otherwise ordered by the Court, an electronic copy of the following tangible things: all call detail records or telephony metadata created by Verizon for communications (i) between the United States and abroad; or (ii) wholly within the United States, including local telephone calls. This Order does not require Verizon to produce telephony metadata for communications wholly originating and terminating in foreign countries. Telephony metadata includes comprehensive communications routing information,. including but not limited to session identifying information (e.g., originating and terminating telephone number, International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) number, International Mobile station Equipment Identity (IMEI) number, etc.), trunk identifier, telephone calling card numbers, and time and duration of call. Telephony metadata does not include the substantive content of any communication, as defined by 18 U.S.C. § 2510(8), or the name, address, or financial information of a subscriber or customer. The leaked order is here: https://s3.amazonaws.com/s3.documentcloud.org/documents/709012/verizon.pdf The writeup by Glenn Greenwald is worth reading as he broke the story: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/jun/06/nsa-phone-records-verizon-court-order This pretty much settles the dragnet surveillance debate - the FBI, the NSA, the FISA courts are aware of it - all the way to the top. Thus it is likely the DoJ are all in on it. This is madness and it is exactly proof of what we have been saying for years. This time it is undeniable as it is signed by a FISA judge and it is *currently* happening. I look forward to the FISA order for full content or the FISA for targeted based on patterns to leak next!

You could do it with leased lines, but (a) given cost pressures on airlines, they might choose other options, and (b) as noted earlier, the information was likely filtered through some non-technical folks and this was their understanding of a slightly different problem (network is down - Internet is down or similar).

Re: [liberationtech] NSA, FBI, Verizon caught red handed spying on US citizens in the US
No, it's really not - there are parts of the US gov (and VZ - I work there and I feel the same way about all this as anyone here) that oppose this type of blanket surveillance of an entire society. And if you think everyone in the government is monolithic about foreign policy, well, then there's a lot more reading you should probably do. I wish it were a little *more* fractured, personally, to avoid some of the more egregious bits we've seen over the last couple of centuries, but just because a side wins doesn't mean everyone is on board.

To say that because the NSA is spying on citizens invalidates any voice the US may have is a bit odd. Jake and I are US citizens, activists, and I am a former State Democratic Committee member. Jake's day job is partly government funded by parts of .gov that are in fact in open conflict with DHS policies domestically. It's no secret that there are conflicts between the policies set by different branches of the US government. WE ARE NOT A DICTATORSHIP. Yet. Someone last week told me with some heat that my former position as a Democratic Party operative means I am the sort of person (contrary to the evidence of his senses) who does not talk to him because it makes me a right-leaning (!) ruling elite! (My father was a wobbly organizer as a young man, my grandfather a syndicalist -- let's say I am not terribly right wing?) I think I will frame that one... My point being, in a democratic society, we all have power to exert influence into the process at various levels, and I expect everyone here is on this list because they do or aspire to. So the first step might be to abandon the model that the government exists, any more than a school of herring exists. They tend to move as a whole, eh? But there is no solid thing. In fact, government is less whole than a school of fish, because a school of fish is coded in DNA and neurotransmitters and instinct. Not so, government. Government is a slow stubborn thing because it is so large and powerful viewed as the forest -- huge inertia! But the trees are not so hard. Elected officials, staff, policies, laws, courts, communications channels, media, regulations, contractors, bureaucrats, elections, political parties, everywhere there's a place to communicate, exchange influence/money, you can insert yourself into the system. It is not monolithic. In a democracy, by its nature, the citizenry are the rightful rulers. When they aren't cruising kittens on youtube, amiright? ;) So I post this story on G+ and most of my fellow citizens won't give a damn because they've been sold on the idea that: --- Government is monolithic, what could I do anyway? Politics is dirty. Only bad people get involved. I would not want to be a politician, activist, or hactivist, those are all bad, dangerous people. I click on internet petitions. I never have to leave the comfort and safety of my ergonomic chair to save the world. My karma is good and I give money to various liberal or conervative appeals and sleep well at night.

Re: [liberationtech] NSA, FBI, Verizon caught red handed spying on US citizens in the US
When I said MONOLITHIC I wasn't referring to all departments or agencies inside government, or even less to individuals working therein, but rather to the effect. If the US government starts a war, it doesn't matter if 49.99% opposed it. It's still going on and people get killed. For those people, and their circles, the US government is MONOLITHIC. If a person residing in the US, Verizon's customer, gets detained by the FBI, and subsequently harrassed and disappears, for all affected the Government is MONOLITHIC. A single shot, and bang: you're dead (or, worse yet, being killed however softly they choose) It's like binary code: either ONE or ZERO. No grey zone.

Re: [liberationtech] Why Metadata Matters
while it is literally true that the data accessed by the NSA is formally metadata--that is, informational data about the calls rather than the conversations themselves--the distinction is becoming more and more obfuscatory. The whole direction of so-called big data analytics is to see through the metadata into what would, until very recently, have been understood as data. metadata today is both far more informationally rich, and far more analytically useful, than the data/metadata distinction suggests.

Re: [liberationtech] Why Metadata Matters
let's just presume that there are parallel arrangements with every other major provider of not just telephony but other forms of electronic communication. and a Google-like persistent shadow copy of whatever parts of the web can be reached. and some neat layers of indexing and categorization metadata of their own. that should bring the disks up to at least 5% full. which definitely leaves no room for a copy of the Bill of Rights (or, for that matter, the Constitution itself).

Re: [liberationtech] Question about otr.js
Speaking as the lead developer for Cryptocat: OTR.js actually has had some vetting. We're keeping it experimental simply due to the experimental nature of web cryptography as a whole. It's a handy library that has had a lot of consideration put into it, but it really depends on your use case and threat model. If you want to use it to keep conversations private in moderate situations, go ahead. If you want to use it to keep conversations private against an authoritarian regime/sprawling surveillance mechanism, think twice. Overall I find it really hard to tell whether it's safe enough without knowing your threat model. For example, if your threat model includes a likelihood of someone backdooring your hardware, pretty much nothing can help you. If you're considering building your own app and using OTR.js as a library, I beseech you to be careful regarding code delivery mechanisms and XSS considerations. Specifically, please use signed browser plugins as a code delivery mechanism and make sure the rest of your app, including outside of OTR.js, is audited against XSS, code injection, and so on. Those kind of threats tend to be far more common than library bugs.

Re: [liberationtech] NSA has direct access to tech giants' systems for user data, secret ppt reveals
It might be that PRISM is merely the end user tool for use by analysts at the NSA, and that the actual gathering of info falls under another program designation, with a much larger budget. PRISM isn't really even that illegal, as long as they discard communications considered to be American. The NSA has been listening to radio signals from all over the world for years, from military bases strategically positioned to pickup radio signals of interest, amongst other types of communication data. This is really just the extension of similar ideas, to a new form of communications, the novel part of the whole thing is that it leverages the fact that so many tech companies are located in the US and that a ton of the internet backbone is run through America. -Andrew On Jun 7, 2013, at 12:18 PM, Bernard Tyers - ei8fdb ei8...@ei8fdb.org wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Still that figures seems awfully small.

Of course, I was reading to fast and leaning to heavily on control+f. Anyway, 20 million annually seems like a very low number by the usual standards of efficiency in Department of Defense programs.

Re: [liberationtech] Why Metadata Matters
Griffen, your example is flawed. The data being reported by Verizon is call duration, not how long someone is at a particular place. So someone with that data could say that Jane made a call from 16th L, but not how she stayed there after the call ended. -- Matt On Thu, Jun 6, 2013 at 10:44 AM, Griffin Boyce griffinbo...@gmail.com wrote: I see a lot of people wondering why metadata matters. But they don't know *what* you're doing there! So I'll give a short example to illustrate how metadata can be used to not only determine who someone is talking to, but also to invade their privacy and uncover the most intimate details of their life. Jane is at 16th L Street for an hour. Carla is at 16th L Street for four hours. She's had a short visit previously. James is at 16th L Street for twenty minutes. He comes back at the same time every week. Kris is at 16th L Street for ten hours. Rick is at 16th L Street for eight hours every night. Samantha has been there for three days and four hours. 16th L Street is the address of a Planned Parenthood in Washington, DC. Jane is having a physical. Carla is having an abortion. James receives his medication there. By visit time, location, and frequency, he is likely a trans guy. If his appointments were every two weeks, the metadata would indicate that James is a trans woman. Kris is protesting there. Rick works in an office in the same building. Samantha dropped her phone in the Farragut West Metro Station and has been looking for it ever since. And that's just location data. If one calls a physician every day, perhaps they have a major medical problem. If a crime happens on the other side of town, and you suddenly start calling attorneys... did you do it? There are numerous explanations for either of those scenarios, but this kind of metadata in isolation can be used to tell almost any story you want. Stay safe out there. best, Griffin Boyce -- Technical Program Associate, Open Technology Institute #Foucault / PGP: 0xAE792C97 / OTR: sa...@jabber.ccc.de -- Too many emails?

[liberationtech] Montreal Journalists: Privacy and Security Workshop
Dear LibTech, In case there are any Montreal-based journalists on the list: I just wanted to quickly share that I'm hosting a privacy and operational security workshop for journalists here in Montreal, sponsored by The Link newspaper. https://www.facebook.com/events/167915566718007/ It's all for free, I'm just doing it in light of the insane surveillance news storm this week. Please share if you know someone in Montreal who can benefit! NK -- Too many emails?

Re: [liberationtech] NSA has direct access to tech giants' systems for user data, secret ppt reveals
What surprised me is how Guardian and Washington Post cover this story. The Power Point slides looks laughable to me. Maybe I should interpret direct access to servers of firms as like when I'm typing this email I am also having *a direct access* to Gmail's servers. This either a ploy by some pro-privacy extremist or a prank by somebody who's tired of these hyperbole privacy outcries. 2013/6/6 Peter Eckersley peter.eckers...@gmail.com Of course, I was reading to fast and leaning to heavily on control+f. Anyway, 20 million annually seems like a very low number by the usual standards of efficiency in Department of Defense programs. But the NSA might already have a data storage, processing and query architecture in place that is either not included in this budget or only included on a marginal cost basis.
