Wikileaks drops another load

Looking through it, the stuff is pretty geeky. All about computer hacks.

Probably better to let the experts at the NYT chew on it and just tell us what they find.

If you are an American and leak American stuff, you can run to Russia.
If you are an American and leak Russian stuff, no one believes you.
If you are a Russian and leak Russian stuff, nowhere is safe.
If you are a Russian and leak American stuff, you've just elected a President.

Very interesting. Your Samsung TV is spying on you.

From the article:
“The idea that the CIA and NSA can hack into devices is kind of old news,” said Johns Hopkins cryptography expert Matthew Green. “Anyone who thought they couldn’t was living in a fantasy world.”

I heard about Samsung TV's listening to everything said in the room more than a year ago, I think. That's why I didn't connect mine to the wi-fi. As far as I know....
 
In dank basement lairs across the US, middle-aged, balding, overweight men are adjusting their aluminum foil skullcaps and feeling satisfied with themselves.
 
As Trump goes to war with his intelligence services WikiLeaks produces material to discredit the CIA - not the content so much as the leaking of it. Mouth-watering stuff for a conspiracy theorist.

I don't see it as discrediting the CIA. It's actually pretty admirable. Very James Bond.

I am not balding, but my apartment is quite dark, and Samsung can listen in on me as much as they'd like as long as their Smart TV functions continue to work better than the Amazon Fire Stick I've stopped using. Pretty much all they'll hear are my occasional strings of epithets while I'm working.

The White House must have a room somewhere that qualifies as a dank basement lair. I am talking to you, Steven Miller and Reince Priebus.
 
It always surprises me when people are upset shocked that spies are spying.
