Glenn Greenwald: NSA Can Store A Billion Cell Phone Calls Every Day

Guardian journalist Glenn Greenwald says he has another big scoop about the National Security Agency's surveillance practices up his sleeve.

Speaking over Skype to the Socialism Conference in Chicago, Greenwald claimed that the NSA has the ability to store one billion phone calls each day.

Greenwald's reporting earlier this month sparked the scandal over NSA surveillance practices that is currently plaguing the Obama administration. The stories were based on classified documents leaked to him by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden, and Greenwald indicated Friday night that he's sitting on several more -- one of which he decided to talk about even though his story on it hasn't been public.

LONDON: UK's spy agencies gained secret access to fibre-optic cables carrying global communications and gathered data larger than the US, a media report said on Saturday, quoting documents leaked by American whistleblower Edward Snowden.
The Guardian newspaper said the revelations were based on leaked documents from the GCHQ - the UK's electronic eavesdropping agency. 


The information, including phone calls, Facebook posts, emails, Internet histories, was stored for up to 30 days to be sifted and analysed, the paper alleged. 
The GCHQ has started processing vast amounts of personal information and is sharing it with its US partner the National Security Agency (NSA), it said.

Facebook Bug Exposed Email Addresses, Phone Numbers Of 6 Million Users

On Friday, Facebook admitted that a bug made the private contact information -- either email addresses or phone numbers -- of 6 million users accidentally accessible to Facebookers who downloaded their account histories onto their own computers. Compared to Facebook's over 1 billion total members, 6 million isn't much. But any security flaw has the potential to frighten people away from a website.

A bug allowed "some of a person’s contact information (email or phone number) to be accessed by people who either had some contact information about that person or some connection to them," Facebook wrotein a note on its security page. Using the network's "Download Your Information" tool, some Facebook members were inadvertently sent the phone numbers or email address of Facebook friends that were otherwise private. Facebook assured users that the bug was fixed within a day, and that there is no evidence that the information was used maliciously.
