Article by “Hasan”

Her first name is “Hillary”

Her last name is “Wang”

Obvious parody.

The NSA does have all the pictures from your phone and probably your PC as well, though. And you’d be naive to think they can’t search by object, because I can do that shit on Amazon Photos. They don’t have a “dick” filter but how hard (giggity) would it be to make one? Just buy Chatroulette’s ML model for a start.

How did this take place? Her security clearance let's her download pics from computers and mobile phones just like that?

So they are admitting there are back doors in phones and operating systems?

Doesn't seem likely they would admit that much.

[–] Dreadrat@lemm.ee 31 points 2 years ago

Did we forget all the sweet NSA tools that quickly? Poor Snowden

[–] thepianistfroggollum@lemmynsfw.com 29 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I mean, it's been a well known fact that the NSA has been intercepting and logging all domestic internet/mobile traffic since Snowden. I bet there are over 16m dick pics sent in the US on a daily basis.

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I know but I think the general public doesn't know or understand this. It's still not exactly admitted as a general thing how this works. Apple and other companies usually talk about how they are resisting to give out access etc.

But yeah, nsa can probably access all windows and Mac systems. I don't think Linux though. Not counting Intel Management Engine in the cpu.

[–] Inktvip@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Linux is where a lot of the actually interesting stuff is, so I highly doubt they don't have a bag of exploits for that.

A lot of that info was known over a year before that even. Wired did a cover story that apparently got no attention from anyone but me... https://www.wired.com/2012/03/ff-nsadatacenter/

fake article from 2018 btw

[–] Baines@lemmy.world 25 points 2 years ago (5 children)

so uh article, no outrage that this can even be done by the NSA?

[–] Heresy_generator@kbin.social 44 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

Well, no because the story is so obviously fake that no one but the most credulous of suckers could fall for it.

[–] Baines@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

well I’ll admit to not really digging deep while taking a shit but is this a joke or not?

[–] Dekthro@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago
[–] Bipta@kbin.social 9 points 2 years ago

The only thing that makes this obviously fake is that it claims she downloaded them from people's phones, rather than from some centralized NSA data store... And the idea an NSA employee would be held accountable publicly and cause bad PR.

[–] Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social 13 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Snowden let everyone know they could do this in his leaks

[–] Rilichu@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Government databases getting misused for personal motives is actually pretty common.

AP did a report on this back in 2016 and while public records on this are fairly limited, they still found about 300 cases of database abuse from 2013 through 2015.

Lmao this has been legal since the Bush administration.

[–] Baines@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (5 children)

I mean yea but this literally proves what people have been saying, that it would be super easy to abuse

I mean, it's been well known that the NSA has been intercepting and logging all domestic internet and other telecommunication traffic for like a decade now.

She works at the NSA. She's been collecting evidence about how many dick pics women receive all the time.

[–] kameecoding@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

she just took home her work for the day

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 18 points 2 years ago (3 children)

That's a high number, Wang.

It was the comma in your sentence which made me snort. That's a very funny comma.

Funny how we can all go, "Yes, this is a possible thing".

NSA and gov't have too much data on us withouy warrants and using 3rd party companies.

It's all a mistake. Someone was told to forward all dick pics to wang@nsa.gov. So, they did!

And those are just the unsolicited ones she received on Tinder.
