NSA Has Undercover Operatives in Foreign Companies
The latest Intercept article on the Snowden documents talks about the NSA's undercover operatives working in foreign companies. There are no specifics, although the countries China, Germany, and South Korea are mentioned. It's also hard to tell if the NSA has undercover operatives working in companies in those countries, or has undercover contractors visiting those companies. The document is dated 2004, although there's no reason to believe that the NSA has changed its behavior since then.

The most controversial revelation in Sentry Eagle might be a fleeting reference to the NSA infiltrating clandestine agents into "commercial entities." The briefing document states that among Sentry Eagle's most closely guarded components are "facts related to NSA personnel (under cover), operational meetings, specific operations, specific technology, specific locations and covert communications related to SIGINT enabling with specific commercial entities (A/B/C)""

It is not clear whether these "commercial entities" are American or foreign or both. Generally the placeholder "(A/B/C)" is used in the briefing document to refer to American companies, though on one occasion it refers to both American and foreign companies. Foreign companies are referred to with the placeholder "(M/N/O)." The NSA refused to provide any clarification to The Intercept.

That program is SENTRY OSPREY, which is a program under SENTRY EAGLE.

The document makes no other reference to NSA agents working under cover. It is not clear whether they might be working as full-time employees at the "commercial entities," or whether they are visiting commercial facilities under false pretenses.

Consider unless Snowden comes back for trial he will still be outside the US, if they have a child, there are a lot of steps the mother will have to go through.

An as I stated she could always return to the US for a month or so to have her child on American soil and then return to Snowden if there are any concerns about the matter.

Tens of thousands of American women a year have children off American soil and it is no big deal as must as you are trying to state otherwise.

Commerce have always exchanged information about their customers, but not about terrorism - only about credit issues and buying habits. With commerce, you can always choose to change stores or banks, or use cash.

A class-action lawsuit in California accuses the social network LinkedIn of violating federal consumer protection laws by selling users' employment history to potential employers without their consent.

The lawsuit filed Thursday in a federal court in Northern California takes issue with LinkedIn's job reference tool, which is available to employers who subscribe to its premium features. LinkedIn can generate reference reports that include the names, locations, and employment history of people who have worked with a given job seeker. The information in these reference reports, the lawsuit points out, could potentially be inaccurate. Applicants are not told when a potential employer runs a reference report.

The lawsuit states:


As such, any potential employer can anonymously dig into the employment history of any LinkedIn member, and make hiring and firing decisions based upon the information they gather, without the knowledge of the member, and without any safeguards in place as to the accuracy of the information that the potential employer has obtained.

Passed in 1970, the Fair Credit Reporting Act requires parties to let a person know when a consumer report is used to deny his or her application for employment, insurance, or credit. Furthermore, consumer consent is required in instances where potential employers pull such reports from a reporting agency. The suit will hinge on whether publicly traded company LinkedIn is considered a consumer reporting agency. The four plaintiffs named in the suit are suing for statutory and actual damages.
