Hacking, Leaking, and Investigative Journalism — C-SPAN Video
John Butts@JBMedia - Reports:
Over the past few years we have seen an unprecedented attack on hackers, journalists, whistleblowers, and other “information activists” who dare to let the public know what goes on within the corridors of power. The US government and its corporate partners have waged a full scale war on the ability of the public to access information. Yet as this takes place, we the public are being told that we no longer have a right to privacy, especially online. This panel will explore these trends and go into detail on the laws and lawless acts that are being used to suppress the public’s right to information and ultimately the possibility of democracy.http://www.greenisthenewred.com/blog/hacking-leaking-investigative-journalism-c-span-left-forum/7178/
