A 36-year veteran of America’s Intelligence
Community, William Binney resigned from his position
as Director for Global Communications Intelligence (COMINT)
at the National Security Agency (NSA) and blew the
whistle, after discovering that his efforts to
protect the privacy and security of Americans were
being undermined by those above him in the chain of
command.
The NSA data-monitoring program which Binney and his
team had developed -- codenamed ThinThread -- was
being aimed not at foreign targets as intended, but
at Americans (codenamed as Stellar Wind); destroying
privacy here and around the world. Binney voices his
call to action for the billions of individuals whose
rights are currently being violated.
William Binney speaks out in this feature-length
interview with Tragedy and Hope's Richard Grove,
focused on the topic of the ever-growing
Surveillance State in America.
