The intruders, who spearheaded the so-called Aurora attacks that breached more than 30 firms using weaponized PDFs, accessed a database at Google which contained data about court orders that authorized surveillance of certain individuals, presumably included among them Chinese spies. The revelation was reported Monday by The Washington Post, which quoted… RELATED: http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/chinese-hackers-who-breached-google-gained-access-to-sensitive-data-us-officials-say/2013/05/20/51330428-be34-11e2-89c9-3be8095fe767_story.htmlhttp://www.twitpic.com/csasc2

#union #iww #ows #occupy #p2 #p21 #tlot #tcot RCMP snooped on Occupy Ottawa protesters http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/story/2013/02/03/ottawa-cp-occupy-ottawa-rcmp-investigation.html The Mounties compiled a dossier on the Occupy Ottawa movement, scouring social media sites and even quizzing campus security after protesters held planning sessions at a university, newly released documents show. Meeting notes show there were also plans to monitor the Confederation Park protest site using a camera mounted to the nearby offices of the National Capital Commission. The camera is normally pointed at Ottawa's city hall, the notes say. However, the NCC says it does not operate the camera and it did not use the device to monitor the protests from its offices. The documents show NCC staff did keep close tabs on the makeshift encampment throughout the occupation, snapping dozens of photographs and reporting on the protesters' activities. Details about the surveillance tactics are only now coming to light, some 14 months after police ousted the Occupy Ottawa protesters from Confederation Park in late November 2011. It took the NCC until last week to provide documents in response to an access-to-information request from The Canadian Press. The Occupy Wall Street activists who set up camp in New York City's financial district in September 2011 spawned a global movement over what protesters perceived to be the widening social and economic gap separating the wealthiest one per cent from the rest of the population. Soon similar protests spread to Canadian cities, including Halifax, Montreal, Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver.http://www.twitpic.com/c0qcus

The discovery, by Oslo-based antivirus and security firm Norman ASA, is the latest in a series of revelations involving digital surveillance activity of unknown origin that appears designed to gather intelligence from specific targets in the Middle East. Norman’s experts say the true extent of the spy network came into focus after news of a cyber attack in late October 2012 that caused Israeli authorities to shut down Internet ac…http://www.twitpic.com/bf07sd
