Audio: Industria del espionaje coludida en todos niveles: Bruce Schneier
En entrevista para Grupo Imagen Multimedia con Rodrigo Pacheco, Bruce Schneier, criptógrafo y experto en seguridad, dijo desconocer cuál es la implicación de las empresas en el escándalo de espionaje en Estados Unidos.
Lo cierto, indicó, “es que la industria está coludida a todos los niveles y entonces podríamos ver que ésta pelea porque hay mucha indignación en torno al tema”.
Acerca de los perjuicios que esta situación pudiera generar en los negocios que hacen esas empresas con otros países, manifestó que además de ellos las personas pudieran verse perjudicados, pero además indicó que no hay manera de protegerse por lo que habrá que confiar en los sistemas de protección de información porque “no hay ningún tipo de confianza”…
Video: "Undermining the Very Fabric of the Internet": Bruce Schneier on NSA’s Secret Online Spying
In an effort to undermine cryptographic systems worldwide, the National Security Agency has manipulated global encryption standards, utilized supercomputers to crack encrypted communications, and has persuaded—sometimes coerced—Internet service providers to give it access to protected data. Is there any way to confidentially communicate online? We speak with security technologist and encryption specialist Bruce Schneier, who is a fellow at Harvard’s Berkman Center for Internet and Society. He has been working with The Guardian on its recent NSA stories and has read hundreds of top-secret NSA documents provided by Edward Snowden. "I have resisted saying this up to now, and I am saddened to say it, but the U.S. has proved to be an unethical steward of the internet. The U.K. is no better. The NSA’s actions are legitimizing the internet abuses by China, Russia, Iran and others," wrote Schneier on Thursday…
Audio: Bruce Schneier on NSA Surveillance
In America today, we find ourselves increasingly living in a new kind of country: where constant surveillance and paramilitary policing are normalized. Bruce Schneier is among the most insightful and important voices speaking out against unchecked government surveillance and the alarming lack of transparency among our democratic institutions.
Audio: Bruce Schneier on Surveillance and Security
Revelations of the NSA’s data surveillance efforts have raised serious questions about the ethics and necessity of violating privacy that have been bubbling under the surface for some time. Efforts to monitor communication are nothing new, but electronically mediated communication has increased the amount of information being shared, and the possibilities for eavesdropping are endless. But there’s a trade off. People tolerate incursions into privacy for greater security or even convenience: health care, transportation, public safety, or any number of web utilities we use on a daily basis. Bruce Schneier is an author, Berkman fellow, and security technologist. He sat down with David Weinberger to talk about the positives and perils of privacy violation…

Audio: Schneier on Power, the Internet, and Security
Bruce Schneier, author and security guru, talks with EconTalk host Russ Roberts about power and the internet. Schneier argues that the internet enhances the power of the powerless but it also enhances the power of the powerful. He argues that we should be worried about both corporate and government uses of the internet to enhance their power. Recorded before news of the PRISM system and the use of Verizon’s customer information by the NSA (National Security Agency), Schneier presciently worries about government surveillance that we are not aware of and explains how governments—democratic and totalitarian—can use the internet to oppress their citizens. The conversation closes with a discussion of terrorism and the costs of the current system for reducing the probability of a terrorist attack…
