The Snowden files -- the inside story of the world’s most wanted man | Luke Harding | TEDxAthens
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 гру 2014
- This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. "We now know, thanks to Edward Snowden- that all of us, Greek citizens, Brits, Americans are being spied and that all of our data - whether its text messages, selfies, G-allocation data from our iphones that we carry around with us - is being collected. Luke thinks that Snowden has done the world a great service by revealing this and thinks it’s got profound implications for democracy - and for all of us - for anyone who uses Facebook or Google or downloads videos from UA-cam and so on.
So that’s the big picture. On a micro level what we can do about this as citizens?"
Luke Harding is a journalist, writer and award-winning correspondent with the Guardian. He has reported from Delhi, Berlin and Moscow and covered wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Ukraine. Between 2007 and 2011 he was the Guardian's Moscow bureau chief. The Kremlin expelled him from the country in the first case of its kind since the Cold War.
His latest book "The Snowden Files: The Inside Story of the World's Most Wanted Man" was published in February by Guardian Faber. In June Oliver Stone bought film rights. Luke is the author of three previous non-fiction books. They are "The Liar: The Fall of Jonathan Aitken" (1997), nominated for the Orwell Prize; and "WikiLeaks: Inside Julian Assange's War on Secrecy" (2011), both written with David Leigh. The screen rights to Wikileaks were sold to Hollywood and the film, "The Fifth Estate", starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Daniel Bruhl, came out in 2013. "Mafia State: How One Reporter Became an Enemy of the Brutal New Russia" appeared in 2011. His books have been translated into 20 languages.

"Saying you don't need privacy because you have nothing to hide is like saying you don't need freedom of speech because you have nothing to say." - Edward Snowden
Dam.
I decided to write a letter to trump to pardon Snowden.
Or that you don’t need to brush your teeth because you don’t have cavities.
@@passiveaggressiveflamingo6851 Brushing is for prevention of cavities, not to cure it :P
What’s your point, exactly? Freedom of speech isn’t a remedy, it’s preventative. As are laws to PREVENT the invasion of privacy. These laws are legislative (ie preventative) as opposed to judicial, which take place AFTER the preventative measure is ineffective. My analogy is sound. Maybe next time post an original thought rather than a quote. Then, you will have arrived at said thought independently and have a true understanding of its premise, thereby “preventing” yourself from embarrassing yourself in the future.
Edit: I didn’t recognize the text smiley, at the end of your post. It seemed snide, initially, but on reconsideration, it may be playful. If it is the latter, I apologize if I came off a bit cold. Regardless, may truth, happiness and humanity surround you in all you do.
Have you ever had apples and pineapples? That’s the same as the statement 🤔. Now go live in china and Russia where they do it ten times harder feed you potatoes for apples and tomatoes for pineapples.
Before Snowden, we knew we were being spied on. After Snowden, we knew we couldn't stop it.
Hacker 'Captain Crunch' was talking about it in the 70's.
You thought you couldn't. Wait. I can.
@@anissamercado9008 with what use?
We could stop it and I did and I proved they are not in control . On J6 I am the Snowden that took down the machine
WOW.. WELL PUT!!👍👍😍
This man gave his freedom for his country, and is a hero.
well... The *MOST* dangerous thing on earth is the free thinking man who decides for his own. ^^
He's a hero for someone but not for "his country" if his country is the USA
Scorch428 ummmm
Wrong....the truth will prevail and the fools will believe anything their peers say.
Maria Vlahon-Allen He's a hero for EVERYONE who if freedom minded, USA or otherwise
Snowden, an American hero. Who risked his life to bring truth to the people
Forcing the Guardian to destroy Snowden's info is outright criminal.
Welcome to the criminal government. And don't forget its only criminal when you do it.
See my videos of modern torture occuring, what do I do? What would you do?
@@andreah6175 I checked out your videos.... I'm so sorry this happening to you, and I wish that I had answers to your questions... def. criminal! I can guess some fraction of the government is responsible? I also think you may be an empath or have a special ability to sense things before other people and perhaps it's why you are most affected at the moment... this could be happening everywhere and I think a lot of people just wouldn't know it because they aren't particularly aware of their surroundings or their body. I hope you can find a way to protect yourself in your own home, at least.
@@bicyclist2 get caught i think Chris maybe xx
I feel like i am being watched while watching this and that really freaks me out
Rick Kamsma You and I are being watched Get used to it and be vocal about your sentiments about it
Hi this is the NCA, the little brother of the NSA.
Who watches the watchers... We the NCA watch the NSA. and the NBA watches the NCA. and the NAA watches all... we ran out of letters so... no one watches NAA.
As a Lockheed employee, I'm almost certain they are. Luckily, I don't really care anymore.
Rick Kamsma watch enemy of the state that was years ago,yes u r watched next is a chip
Rick Kamsma 🤣😂🤣🤣😂
Nobel Prize nomination for Edward Snowden is urgent - just like for Julian Assange!!!!
Even more for Mordechai Vanunu. He was nominated for the Nobel prize every year since 1987. And Israel blocked it every time. So... if Snowden and Assange are hated by Israel... it won't happen. Israel controls the world.
See my videos of modern torture occuring, what do I do? What would you do?
It's unfortunate to hear how Snowden gave his freedom and risked his life for speaking the truth and trying to protect people. He warned people that their privacy is being violated, hoping they would be more careful, and his award for taking this risk is being one of the most wanted people in the USA. It's sad how good people get punished for telling the truth, but people who committed a real crime are still walking around unpunished.
Not just walking around, they are hurting more and more people, destroying our world (we all help with that) and we keep voting them into power....

Have you seen the privacy policies lately? Forget the NSA, Google and Facebook know more about you than you do.
The NSA knows everything google/facebook do. Social media and the interconnectivity of the internet are the problem.
The NSA taps Google and Facbook servers. Also, I don't use Facebook and barely have any relations to Google services.
google and facebook IS the NSA
True, but look at the good side more than half of what they think they know is usually wrong.
@@Paul-gz5dp, how's that?
Snowden has the biggest set of balls on earth to do what he did and him of all people knows what his former coleuges are capable of. I still would not be surprised if Snowden got a fast acting cancer any time soon or was in a tragic accident.
I think you got your countries confused. Russia is the country which executes its traitors. Snowden would have had a trial and been put in jail with due process if he were captured by American authorities. He was and still is too high profile to just be executed under suspicious circumstances. If he were a Russian spy who tried to share secrets with the world or other governments he would be executed if caught. The irony is Snowden himself say he doesnt want to live in a world where everything he said, wrote, etc wasnt private....but now that hes living in Russia that's exactly the type of world hes living in
fergal farrelly Snowden did correct. He took what he found up the change of command. When the chain fails the next resource is the people via the press. Charges against him is simply for doing his job.
Julian Assange and Mordechai Vanunu have equally big balls. Julian is currently being tortured by Britain and United States. No media is reporting about that. Human Rights Watch and all other similar organizations are totally quiet. And all those liars who say they support whistleblowers also don't care. Just by the cases of Julian Assange, Edward Snowden and Mordechai Vanunu you can see who really values truth, and who is just pretending.
look at his fellow whistleblowers...
Assange and Manning...in jail
@@Blueshirts07 I don't know if it was intentional or a freudian slip, but the real truth is right there in your own words "Snowden would have had a trial and been put in jail with due process if he were captured by American authorities." You are correct. The trial and the "due process" are just for show, because, as you say yourself, it has already been decided that he would be put in jail. This is the way our "justice" system and our government works now.
*We need more people like Snowden*
But just more deliberate and careful.
Snowden is a brave man...and gives me faith in humanity,,,he risked everything for the worlds people
And now he has to spend his life living in Russia and looking over his shoulder. It's terrible.
Julian Assange was captured and is currently being tortured by Britain and United States. Not that mainstream media is even mentioning it.
@Sonny, Woon Tat Loo that's called being a whistleblower. A person who tells the truth about malpractice, misinformation or crime in an organization or government. The world would be a better place if there were more people like Snowden, Julian Assange or Mordecai Vanunu. They are heroes who exposed the government lies and told the truth. And paid a high price for it. In any time and any place, those people are heroes.
@@scottsmith5376 to be fair same would happen if he leaked something much less important, all workers like him are aware of punishment that comes with the job. It's good that he did what he did but then again I bet in his head he hoped to be called hero and that in the end he will be rewarded for that. You know what's really terrible? Fact that nothing changed and 99,9% of ppl don't even remember him and what it was all about.
A Chinese friend called me using WeChat video recently and we had been chatting for a good 45 minutes when she asked me "Hey, have you heard about what's going on in Hong Kong?" I replied "Of course, I've been keeping track of it" and I began to let her know about the latest updates I've learned, since she's in mainland China and dealing with BS news reporting. As soon as I started talking about it, our connection got bad and our call dropped. WeChat gave a couple of messages, one being that the connection was "unstable" and then it was disconnected.
Up until our discussion about HK, there was nothing at all said about anything political and our connection was just fine. She was on wifi and so was I. These types of things have happened before and no one can have me believe it's merely coincidence.
I pitty the person who spy's on me what a boring job..
Don't worry. Someday your boring life might be used against you, when they will need you to do something for them
it's being used already for manipulating minds. In elections for example
bro, they paying useless people"they think they are" like 60 an hour to follow me around, spy me in my room, job and on the internet. Meanwhile, the other thousands are doing their missions without hurdles lol
Yeah, great that you feel so safe of constant surveilance of your every conversation, every search and everything about you.
Lovetheatre, exactly. I have often thought the same thing.
Thank you for such an entertaining and informative video. Snowden must be commended for his tremendous courage and The Guardian for their solidarity.
Reminds me of the movie, I think it was: 'The cutter'.
People record their entire life out of free will.
The cutter is the guy who is the video editor who
stitches together a summary of a person's life and times
for presenting at the funeral of the same.
Repression is no repression if people embrace it out
of free will.
Like the infamous 'soma' drug from Aldous Huxley.
Or the continuous fiddling with the phone (not really a phone anymore)
not caring much about privacy.
Since my jail terms for opposing the war in Vietnam, I have been spied on continually. Learned not to be bothered about it. However, what bugs me is their efforts to sabotage my creative work. There must be some mechanism for monitoring and correcting this behaviour. What is good for the goose is good for the gander.
really?
you should google "A Girl and Her Fed" :)
See my videos of modern torture occuring, do you encounter similar?
I know a Turkish brother (decent man) in Australia who after he left the police force he was being spied on, car bugged, house bugged, etc.
Hope you got back on the meds. Just cause we almost pretended women have penus"s doesn't mean all crazy is healthy and paranoid schizophrenia is not healthy. Best of luck with the sabotage thing.....
Interesting how four years after this speech The Guardian is so anti Assange I've removed it from my news feed.
Probably someone infiltrated it. Like that zombie disease, it enters a healthy human and turns him into a zombie.
I have applaud and appreciation for Mr Snowden . Bravory and sacrifice.
Edward is a hero... Thanks Edward 💙
See my videos of modern torture occuring, what do I do? What would you do?
Every citizen, mayor, congressman, senator, governor and as we know now even our President is being spied on.
And per boiling frogs blog by ex nsa personnel have been spied on for years previous to.power- he states seeing intel intercepts on unknown Illinois politician named obama years before he was in power
Thank you Edward Snowden God bless you Peace
What concerns me the most is the reaction of the audience. Reacting with humor, outright laughter is a dangerous sign of acceptance.
Maybe the people that are attending have been planted by the enemym
THANK YOU SNOWDEN... I WISH I WAS IN A DEVELOPED COUNTRY TO HELP.. YOU DID GREAT AND TOOK THAT MUCH RISK TO REVEAL TRUTH. STAY SAFE AND DON'T GO BACK. MAKE HOME WHEREVER YOU ARE
I recently downloaded Snowden Movie and Google Algorithms recommend this video , they know it all 😲
i did not, but these algorythms did same for me. coincidence, i would say
What’s the name of the movie???
Just Snowden
"World's most wanted man"? You're exaggerating. It's just America's.
If it's America's most wanted it's the worlds most wanted. The US has diplomatic relations everywhere and hardly anyone wants to get on their bad side.
Snowden barely made it out of Hong Kong; both in timing and also that had an ace of a lawyer with him, and a bit of luck.
He almost got caught on several instances in getting to the airport. If he had not left the hotel room on that hour - he would have been caught.
Even Snowden fully realizes that they would have done literally anything to catch him.
Remember the diplomatic plane that was forced down because they believed he was on it?
If the opportunity would have presented itself; they would have captured him, or worse - they would have killed him.
The worlds most wanted man is JESUS... still never been found.... astonishing that so many believe in him still...……….. . . . .
@@ononotu1496 lmao you're on the wrong video sir. Please try again later.
. . . . . . ........ Ono, your spot on. He’s the most wanted but he’s also the best hide and seek player to this date, let’s keep his game going.
Awesome talk. Thank you
When you say nothing has changed everything has changed. Rusbridger has been booted out and some US woman is now Guardian editor. Iphones are still ubiquitous and Blackberry the one device that was harder to hack nearly went out of business.
Blackberry harder to hack??? The company admitted around 2004 that its operating system was insecure and that it couldn't be *made* secure. That's why most governments prohibit anyone with access to classified information from using them. That's also one of the reasons why Hillary Clinton hosted her own email server, because the State Department refused to install the insecure Blackberry software or to support her insecure phone. Even the President gave up his "Crackberry", but of course she was special . . .
See my videos of modern torture occurring, changed for the worse.
That's not for the British people to accuse Russia of spying. The U.K. is also involved in the mass surveillance business.

I agree, watched it the other night. I also recommend Citizenfour, Snowden invited some journalists to record him in Hong Kong when he initially blew the whistle. Very interesting documentary.
What’s the name of the movie???
Just did.
Edward Snowden, wherever you are.
You are welcome in my home in Nicaragua.
Worst thing is America having a statue named as " Statue of Liberty ".
thoroughly
The Statue of Liberty was given to America by the people of France in the 19th century. Get with the program.
@@davidbarnett9312 hahahah
The Statue of Liberty was a gift from France! The Dupont's manipulated the Louisiana Purchase and started America that's why Delaware license plates say the first state! They are tax shelters they have little six by eight rooms and that is we're all American businesses are registered for tax shelter purposes 350 of them are owned by DuPont the Chiefs are holding company! The first business in America was making Buckshot for guns for war this was DuPont! Who today owns Remington guns and ammunition! They also control the chemical industry they invented nylon anything made of nylon including stockings they make money from they own the patent! They invented Agent Orange which destroyed millions of lives including our own soldiers in Vietnam! The world hates America, cuz we use our military to just take what we want! Read the Bible Mark chapter 13, Matthew chapter 24, John chapter 21! Watch!
The Dupont family was kicked out of France 400 years ago. The king ordered them out! So they took their artwork, their pianos, and their gold candlesticks and Jewelry and came to America, and started America by manipulating the Louisiana Purchase, and then, the 13 colonies with Delaware as a tax shelter! Little tiny closets registered as home bases two major American corporations which are held by the duponts in secret! Companies like Wendy's, Radio Shack excetera excetera excetera
very interesting, many thanks for sharing.
A lot of this guy’s jokes were highly under appreciated.
long live HERO'S like this, we need more people like that,how brave a man risked EVERYTHING, to bring us THE TRUTH, power to you my brother, how have we allowed things to get to this madness.
a REAL TRUE HERO,, thank you 4 ur sacrifice, love you,,xxx
Thank you.

I am firmly convinced that Edward Snowden is a NEW VOICE OF FREEDOM! Thx Ed! Appreciate your commentary on our condition every time! AND EVERYONE that follows your situation...Can u put me in touch with any nice young women from the Ukraine? LOL...
Yet so many Americans call him a traitor and believe he should be killed for treason. How they could hold this view is beyond me. They say the same about Chelsea manning.

Been thinking a lot of Snowden lately; I met someone who never heard of him, or Assange or Manning, & I was stunned. I have been trying to figure out where to start explaining, to someone so insulated... Thank you Luke, for your courage.
This guy had a great party the night before and is still jacked up. The crowd on the other hand is about to fall asleep. They all wish for a party like he had. The contrast/pain is real.

😂😆
Great talk
wow. A real life 21st century journalist.
I would love to meet you my good man and shake your hand!
To my knowledge Snowden never quite covered this one; although I'm quite sure he does know about it.
For a number of years the NSA and a few other alphabet organizations have used NSA tools as a method to finance their operations. Basically think of it as insider trading.
Using insider knowledge to then trade on Wall Street. The NSA (and others) also have the ability to manipulate the market, and also hold any Fortune 500 company at bay
I'd like to know more.
I name you 'Judas', Harding.
"With not a penny going to WikiLeaks, a hyped Guardian book led to a lucrative Hollywood movie deal. The book’s authors, Luke Harding and David Leigh, gratuitously abused Assange as a “damaged personality” and “callous”.
They also revealed the secret password Julian had given the Guardian in confidence and which was designed to protect a digital file containing the US embassy cables.
With Assange now trapped in the Ecuadorean embassy, Harding, who had enriched himself on the backs of both Julian Assange and Edward Snowden, stood among the police outside the embassy and gloated on his blog that “Scotland Yard may get the last laugh”."

Trusting The Guardian was a mistake. Even their name has a dystopian ring to it today.
Damn.. didn't know that.. however, Snowden being a intelligent man.. wouldn't u think he'd know.. like for someone to get the info to the masses a book, a movie, would make someone money and the more money the better because that means its reaching more people.. he hasnt put any money on assangee books for ramen noodles? Is that basically thats saying fact wise? What can money do to help u out a ecroprison? Doubt theres bail. U mean money to rise awareness? Not coming at u sideways an I know it's not ur statement, I'm jus curious I'm no expert on the subject I'm interested to know more and asking.
Respect
Snowden encouraged people to use the TAILS computer operating system which is about as secure as it comes. I can't think of one better.
steven holmes what’s that?
It’s part of the Linux family, l knew it
If Snowden had taken the safe road (not whistle blowing the NSA activities) we would be bumbling along today with them watching every aspect of our lives - Orwellian x 1,000,000
The sad part of the story is even though he took the risk to expose this unjustified total survaillance we bubble along anyway and they continue to record and watch and listen...are we all asleep?
I am American and a strict constitutionalist. I believe in a strong nation. Strong defense. Anti terrorism. That being said, I believe equally in our rights. Our civil liberties. Our privacy and right to anonymity.
I'm torn between our need for national security, and our right to privacy. That being said when it comes to data mining, spying on nationals and basically "guilty until proven innocent" it's like I teach my children, "if you have to ask yourself, 'is this wrong/should I do it?' the answer is almost always NO."
It's a very intresting topic. I try to view the privacy situation as follows.
Let's scale it down to company level yiu want a security guard, guarding your company. And the security guard needs access to every room. This is where I agree. However right now the security guard is looking at all the employees while they go to the bathroom, the security guard is watching everything so closely he misses how the cleaning lady is stealing money from the vault and only notices 1 out of 10 burglers.
The USA has not a defence but an attack force. The difference is huge. The last defence force of America existed during WW1 and WW2.

I was just telling my boyfriend this the other day... it’s so weird I talked about something specific “a company” and it appeared on my Instagram... I didn’t google it or anything I had a conversation about this specific company.... this spying on regular people is true 1000%
That's retargeting, chat logs, searches... are being sold to advertising companies so they get the most $$$, win win situation for both (whatever software you were using) and the ads company because they get more High ROI for their advertisers.

no I am the other Snowden and I ended corrupt governments on J6 when I exposed them . I am the Snowden that did more damage than the original Snowden
The story is he's living out a very lonely existence.
That's wrong. His long time girlfriend joined him in Russia, and they're happily married. Ofc getting away from everything and everyone isn't easy, and he's basically a refugee, I doubt he's miserable. Read his book, he's an introvert to begin with, and it makes me so happy that he's happy.
megha singh I disagree. I believe if he could get to the US Scott free, he’d do it, but of course he can’t.
megha singh the move he made is hardly an introvert move. Either way, I wonder if he’ll ever be exchanged for another spy.
@@thomaswood7495 Oh course he would, but this is not the point megha is trying to make.
The line has been crossed and continuously being crossed...
Agreed! Thought it was just me.
The real reason they don't like hackers is that hackers will discover what a fallacy it all is and MI havent got any secrets worth hacking!
John Kean you might not have any information that seems important or worth spying on, but when all of that information is analyzed by AI they can predict how to manipulate you and others through media and political issues. A country divided cannot stand, so fracturing our population gives politicians leverage. If we become truly united in issues we have the power. Cambridge Analytica has already used this technology during the 2016 presidential campaign, they are responsible for a lot of the “lock her up” and “crooked Hilary” posts on Facebook. We also never know how they might use this information in the future.
If you intelligent and informed people have been paying attention since this video, particularly to some information and clues that have been made public (you should know where by now), then you know WHO and WHAT Snowden really is...and what his mission really was. People love heroes...yet the real heroes are unknown to the general public.

Shouldn't Snowden be protected under the whistleblower act
Good old USA actually added a law in the patriot act that strips whistleblowers protection as it relates to the government " for the safety of Americans" and went a step further they can throw you in prison without charges or due process, torture with impunity
Harding is not a reliable source.
I think the footage of them destroying the files is a good way to look at how freedom to speak is getting hammered.
Google and Facebook gave permission for their servers to be looked into. Snowden said they were deputised.
Thank you so much for teaching me lll

They really do have the ability to turn your phone on..or the microphone..I've left my phone on in the middle of the night and wake up and the listening feature or the sound recorder was turned on...I doubt they listen in real time but definitely record it and store it for future use if need be. . I've had quite a few instances where it was clear that someone was recording... especially between 2015 and 2017 ..not so much now.. but definitely before Data farms became common and they had to listen in real time I think they were like a kid in a candy store when the technology first came out ..it was probably more about learning it's limits rather than spying on anyone directly... quality control purposes..
