NSA & Illegal Spying - Greenpeace Flies Airship Over NSA Data Center

NSA and Illegal Spying - Greenpeace flies an airship over the NSA Data Center in Utah - June, 2014.

Greenpeace works with millions of people around the world every day who are trying to protect the environment, and to do that, they have to organize. In the US and in any country that aspires to respect human rights, our ability to organize is protected by basic freedoms: things like our freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, and freedom from unreasonable searches. In the 21st century, we exercise most of those freedoms on the internet. Government surveillance like the NSAs illegal spying program stifles our ability to do that, and will make it harder for people around the world to organize for the environment. That's why today, Greenpeace joined with the digital rights watchdog Electronic Frontier Foundation and the conservative Tenth Amendment Center to fly our airship over the NSAs data center in Utah to protest the governments illegal mass surveillance program.

Ongoing news reports in the international media have revealed operational details about the United States National Security Agency (NSA) and its international partners' global surveillance of foreign nationals and US citizens. The reports mostly emanate from a cache of top secret documents leaked by ex-NSA contractor Edward Snowden, which he obtained whilst working for Booz Allen Hamilton, one of the largest contractors for defense and intelligence in the United States. In addition to a trove of US federal documents, Snowden's cache reportedly contains thousands of Australian, British and Canadian intelligence files that he had accessed via the exclusive Five Eyes network. In June 2013, the first of Snowden's documents were published simultaneously by The Washington Post and The Guardian, attracting considerable public attention.
