WikiLeaks Posts Over 1 Million Hacking Team Emails

WikiLeaks has created a searchable database of more than 400 GB of private emails and source codes dumped on the Internet after unknown hackers breached into Hacking Team's systems and leaked their files online.

The database is proving to be one huge virtual can of worms for foreign governments spanning the globe from Australia to Mexico.

Earlier reports have mentioned that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) spent $800,000 to pay for software updates and improvements to Galileo Remote Control System (RCS), Hacking Team's proprietary intrusion software that allows its user to breach private computer systems in stealth.

This was posted elsewhere--thanks to Big Wave.

This may change your mind about what constitutes surveillance. Especially that last sentence: "...proprietary intrusion software that allows its user to breach private computer systems in stealth."

Does a stealth breach leading to examination of stored private files constitute "surveillance" in your opinion? In mine, it does.
