America’s Spy State Is Worse Than You Ever Imagined

WIKILEAKS EXPOSES THE DIABOLICAL DEPTHS OF THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY’S DOMESTIC SPYING NETWORK …

We knew the American spy state was out of control … and unlikely to ever be reined in.

But the extent of mass snooping by the federal government – which ostensibly exists to promote our liberty – is no longer just disturbing, it has become downright diabolical.

This week, whistleblowing website Wikileaks released 8,761 documents reportedly obtained from an “isolated, high-security network” located at the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)’s headquarters in Langley, Virginia. Dubbed “Year Zero,” these documents reveal how the CIA – among other snooping programs – has been developing and utilizing tools that turn consumer electronic devices into “listening posts” for the government.

From Wikileaks …

“Year Zero” introduces the scope and direction of the CIA’s global covert hacking program, its malware arsenal and dozens of “zero day” weaponized exploits against a wide range of U.S. and European company products, include Apple’s iPhone, Google’s Android and Microsoft’s Windows and even Samsung TVs, which are turned into covert microphones.

Unreal …
