If you're a reporter and following the Assange Espionage Act extradition case--and you should be, since it's possibly the biggest press freedoms case in a generation--it's worth reading this thread on the defense's first arguments, which really blow a hole in the govt's case. twitter.com/kgosztola/stat…

BIG: Presidential hopefuls should be asked their position on the costly failure of the NSA's unconstitutional mass surveillance program, part of which is up for renewal on March 15th. Today's report reveals a long history of abuse & no meaningful success.

I know it is a slow news days with nothing at all happening in the world, but this is a very important story: nytimes.com/2020/02/23/us/…

Reporters following up on this story should look at the burning question @washingtonpost inexplicably failed to raise: how the IC transitioned from subverting crypto via foreign cut-outs to corrupting domestic companies like RSA (reuters.com/article/2013/1…) (and through them NIST). twitter.com/Snowden/status…

“Human rights have not been in a crisis like this since the end of the Second World War,” says Manfred Nowak, the former United Nations Special Rapporteur on Torture. We should listen. shhhcretly.com/2020/02/02/shh…

Democracy depends on factual consensus, which requires access to information--especially the sort some would rather not hear. What you see before you is the path to a world without witnesses, and it is our lawmakers who will decide if we continue down it--as we have for decades. twitter.com/nytimes/status…

This looks like the first confirmed case of digital weapons made by Israel's NSO group being used against a major US reporter. NSO has repeatedly, falsely sworn their hacks are only used against "terrorists" and "serious criminals." Which one is @NYTBen? twitter.com/RonDeibert/sta…

Those who looked the other way because they personally disliked Julian Assange when the DOJ indicted him under a legal theory that merely publishing clear, public-interest journalism could constitute multiple Espionage Act violations should reconsider where that road leads. twitter.com/DavidUberti/st…

Our statement at @FreedomofPress on the false charges laid by Brazil's Bolsonaro regime against @ggreenwald for reporting the biggest corruption story in years -- corruption in the Justice Ministry itself! These charges are unbelievable, unsupported, and indefensible.

I suspect history will look back on the Suleimani assassination as the moment the US lost the long war in Iraq. The political consequences will cost the government far more presence in the region than any Iranian response. nytimes.com/2020/01/03/wor…

"I GENERALLY CARE relatively little for the personal lives of people of note, but something that always nagged me just slightly about Edward Snowden’s 2013 revelations that the NSA was spying on pretty much everyone was — how angry was his girlfriend?" lareviewofbooks.org/article/snowde…
