Creator of NSA’s Global Surveillance System Calls B.S. On Russian Hacking Report

We’ve previously documented that the hacking evidence against Russia is extremely weak, and the new report on Russian hacking doesn’t say much.
Indeed – if Russia hacked the Democratic party emails (from the DNC and top Clinton aide John Podesta) – the NSA would have all of the records showing exactly who did it.
We asked Bill Binney what he thought of the new report.
Binney is the NSA executive who created the agency’s mass surveillance program for digital information, who served as the senior technical director within the agency, who managed six thousand NSA employees, the 36-year NSA veteran widely regarded as a “legend” within the agency and the NSA’s best-ever analyst and code-breaker, who mapped out the Soviet command-and-control structure before anyone else knew how, and so predicted Soviet invasions before they happened (“in the 1970s, he decrypted the Soviet Union’s command system, which provided the US and its allies with real-time surveillance of all Soviet troop movements and Russian atomic weapons”).
quote:
Binney tells Washington’s Blog:
I expected to see the IP’s or other signatures of APT’s 28/29 [the entities which the U.S. claims hacked the Democratic emails] and where they were located and how/when the data got transferred to them from DNC/HRC [i.e. Hillary Rodham Clinton]/etc. They seem to have been following APT 28/29 since at least 2015, so, where are they?
Further, once we see the data being transferred to them, when and how did they transfer that data to Wikileaks? This would be evidence of trying to influence our election by getting the truth of our corrupt system out.
And, as Edward Snowden said, once they have the IP’s and/or other signatures of 28/29 and DNC/HRC/etc., NSA would use Xkeyscore to help trace data passing across the network and show where it went. [Background.]
In addition, since Wikileaks is (and has been) a cast iron target for NSA/GCHQ/etc for a number of years there
should be no excuse for them missing data going to any one associated with Wikileaks.
***
Too many words means they don’t have clear evidence of how the data got to Wikileaks.
Binney designed the NSA’s electronic surveillance system, so he would know.

And he left out the fact that the report contains zero proof that Official Russian Intelligence agencies were responsible for any alleged hacking (phishing). Let's see, according to the report it coulda been civilians, it coulda been the GRU, it coulda been the FSB. Give me a break.

You can not believe anything the American MSM reports... Nothing but fake news and propaganda from MSM......... RT and Al Jazeera are more trustworthy at this point which is pathetic.

Bill Binney understands more than most. Our government ruined his life because he had the nerve to inform the DOD Inspector General about monetary waste and inefficiency in the NSA and about the warrantless collection of individual metadata. This man is a hero.

Daniel Ellsberg has said it as well. Called the Obama Administration worse than the Nixon Administration for secrecy and the 1st Amendment.

Spicer zeroes in on DNC’s ‘lax IT support’
Incoming White House press secretary Sean Spicer said on Sunday that a report last week linking Russia to the hacking of Democratic Party organizations showed the Democratic National Committee (DNC) was lax in its IT security.
“While the media played it up as this report about the hacking, what it actually is, if you look through it, and its available online, is a series of recommendations that should be taken, like changing passwords, changing administrative rights,” Spicer said on ABC’s “This Week.”
“What it shows is that by all measures the Democratic National Committee had a very lax IT support,” he added.
Spicer said that hacking is “wrong by any standards.”
“But the fact of the matter is, what this report really does show is that there’s a need for them to go back in and look at their, what they’re doing IT wise to protect their system.”
