| NSA Intercepted Webcam Images Of Millions Of Yahoo Users Why would the GCHQ and the NSA target Yahoo users? Do criminal masterminds all have Yahoo accounts or is it just because Yahoo has lame security? GCHQ files dating between 2008 and 2010 explicitly state that a surveillance program codenamed Optic Nerve collected still images of Yahoo webcam chats in bulk and saved them to agency databases, regardless of whether individual users were an intelligence target or not. In one six-month period in 2008 alone, the agency collected webcam imagery – including substantial quantities of sexually explicit communications – from more than 1.8 million Yahoo user accounts globally. http://www.hardocp.com/news/2014/02/...s_yahoo_users/ |
