Re: Wiki Leaks Founder Julian Assange granted 'Asylum' in Ecuador

Wikileaks have released all kinds of info today, in which experts say at first glance looks genuine, 1000's of documents have been released detailing hacking tools and methods, so far, they are saying MI5 and CIA are routinely using Smart TV, iPhones, iPads, Microsoft systems to bug their targets...

Quote:
MI5 and the CIA colluded to develop viruses to turn Samsung smart TVs into household bugs, according "leaked" intelligence documents published by WikiLeaks.

The documents - said to have come from the CIA's Centre for Cyber Intelligence - allegedly prove that a CIA branch worked with MI5 on a project to "infest smart TVs, transforming them into covert microphones".

The so-called "weeping angel" program would trick users into thinking their TV was off when it was actually on, it is claimed.

WikiLeaks says the documents show smart TVs were then used as a bug "recording conversations in the room and sending them over the internet to a covert CIA server".
