Edward Snowden hat heute Geburtstag.

Zumindest wir denken an ihn als einen, der alles dafür riskiert und letztlich verloren hat, um die Welt über die Überwachungspraktiken der US-Geheimdienste zu informieren, anscheinend leider fast umsonst.

Zitat laut Wikipedia:
„Ich erkannte, dass ich Teil von etwas geworden war, das viel mehr Schaden anrichtete als Nutzen brachte.“

I think, you know, saying that you don't care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don't care about freedom of speech because you have nothing to say.

It's a deeply anti-social principal because rights are not just individual – they're collective.

What may not have value to you today, may have value to an entire, you know, population, entire people, an entire way of life tomorrow.

And if you don't stand up for it, then who will?

Since the government openly admits and boasts about its surveillance programs now, why not pardon Edward Snowden?

Also, we should probably stop using smartphones.

@dudenamedben33 #Snowden Warned us.

Does #Snowden Treason taste different with #margaritas? YMMV.

Thanks to him we are in a #dictatorship.

Ein Rechercheteam hat Edward Snowden im Moskauer Umland ausfindig gemacht! Nach über 10 Jahren auf der Flucht ist nun klar: Der bekannte Whistleblower lebt nahe Moskau.

“Affermare che non si è interessati al diritto alla #privacy perché non si ha nulla da nascondere è come dire che non si è interessati alla libertà di parola perché non si ha nulla da dire.”

#COINTELPRO was ordered by a court to cease

Its practices under different agency names were revamped and continued, only a fool would think otherwise.

But why bring #Snowden back into the spotlight, he is almost forgotten

What's at stake with mass surveillance?

Constanze Kurz argues that we've lost momentum since the #Snowden revelations in 2013... With intelligence services growing more powerful, here's what matters for our collective digital future:

Oh, der mögliche Verbrecher Benjamin #Netanjahu konnte offenbar ungehindert in die #EU einreisen?

https://orf.at/stories/3389549/

Warum zur Hölle hat der demokratische Teil der EU den Luftraum nicht gesperrt, den Flieger des Staatschefs abgefangen und nach Den Haag umgeleitet?

Netanjahu wird iirc mit internationalem Haftbefehl gesucht. Präsident Evo #Morales hatte man völkerrechtswidrig "auf Wunsch" der #USA zum Landen und Durchsuchen gezwungen - weil Edward #Snowden u.U. an Board hätte sein können!

@DigiOekCH I have been saying that for years... Ever since the #snowden revelations, it was clear that it is impossible for US companies to comply with the patriot act and European laws and regulations regarding #privacy like the #GDPR

Especially now that #Trump suspended the TADPF.

I am actually glad that #Europe is finally coming to it's senses in this regard!

Choose #European solutions. Take back sovereignty over your #data

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) -National Airspace Defense Programs

URGENT- NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT

I work(ed) for the #FAA #NationalDefense Programs (#NDP). My position is/was a national security critical-designated job that was supposed to be exempted from the massive (and unlawful) firings of probationary employees.

On Saturday morning at 12:43AM CST, while I was actively working on an extremely important and classified project in response to a credible threat to America's national security, I was fired.

Before I was fired, the official #DOGE #Facebook page started harassing me on my personal Facebook account after I criticized #Tesla and #Twitter. Less than a week later, I was fired, despite my position allegedly being exempted due to national security.

For those who do not know, #FAA #NDP is tasked with protecting the National Air Space from threats such as missiles, enemy #drones, #aircraft used as #weapons (think 9-11), and so forth.

FAA NDP is a small, yet critical part of protecting the #American public and many of our border states that are at risk of attack from our foreign adversaries such as #China and #Russia.

In March 2024 - I was recruited from my job as Legislative Director at the DC Government to the FAA NDP for the purpose of working on a critical national defense project and in response to a grave and credible threat to the American Air Space.

While working for the FAA NDP, I served as the FAA Lead to the DoD for Open Mission Systems and Data Rights on an urgent project underway in response to a credible national defense threat to America's National Air Space.

When DOGE fired me, they turned off my computer and wiped all of my files without warning. I had just finished a classified meeting at Hill AFB in SLC and was on my way home when I was fired. I was also scheduled to be at Hanscom AFB this upcoming week for additional briefings.

I will be appealing my termination based on political retaliation - which happened in the same unsigned form letter others received - and which my boss and FAA leadership appear to have had no idea of, thought was exempted, and vehemently disagreed with.

My boss and FAA leadership had actively advocated for my position to be excluded from DOGE terminations due to the grave national security implications of my work and believed that such an exemption had been granted.

I had also received excellent performance evaluations and even received a valuing for performance pay raise in January as the FAA is one of the only federal agencies that gives pay raises based on merit and performance.

I decided over the weekend that I want to talk publicly about what happened - especially the harassment I received from DOGE on my personal social media accounts prior to my being fired simply for criticizing Tesla and Twitter (X).

I’m also deeply concerned about DOGE's disregard of the national security implications of my termination.

I believe that the public has a right to know that America's national security has been made less safe"

this is so wrong, #Trump is the enemy from within

what is even worse, the competent in #government can easily find a new better paid job in #private (#corrupt or not #corrupt) #companies, some such as #Snowden in his biography explicitly states that he went from #gov to #private and back, because he could not stand the #corruption

He actually abstained from higher pay and better living standard at #private #companies (gov subcontractors, so he still worked for the government but as a private company charging manyfold for the same work) to actually serving the people with less pay, as his parents did as well

"We are in the age of mass surveillance."

Constanze Kurz shares her concerns about public complacency toward our data privacy, digital rights, and our collective online future.

With policy across the world struggling to keep pace with modern technological advancements, the conversation #Snowden started needs to continue especially in modern times!

From deepstate critic TO DeepState, like Leon Panetta:
"When she was still in the House, #Gabbard introduced a resolution calling for all charges to be dropped against #EdwardSnowden... she urged President-elect #Trump at the end of his first term to pardon people who “exposed the deception and criminality of those in the #deepstate,” in commenting on another post specifically mentioning #Snowden.
