Fark. Scary stuff from Snowden.
Quote:
"Specifically yes, the GCSB not only uses XKEYSCORE, they have expanded it, contributed to its development. And that's a tremendously concerning thing," - Snowden

Snowden says XKEYSCORE involves metadata and content collection on citizens in NZ, their private communications ... and GCSB all have access to these communications. They are theoretically constrained by policy, they aren't really overseen. No accountability or public say on how they operate or whether they should exist at all.
