https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/cia-secretly-owned-swiss-company-encrypted-over-120-countries-communications

1. I wonder who controls this company (and all the “backdoors” it has installed) now.

2. I wonder how many more companies there are like this.

3. I wonder how many more software packages are out there like this.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What an amazing link you got there. Using the "greeneyes technique," I followed the zerohedge link to the (massive) Washington Post article which may lay the groundwork to  prosecute the CIA (as we know it) out of existance .

This story amazes me - first, that it was ever published at all, and in the Washington Post at that! It’s a massive information cache - I recommend reading the entire article!

For decades, the CIA read the encrypted communications of allies and adversaries.

For decades, the CIA "had it all". Records indicate that at least 4 countries (Israel, Sweden, Switzerland and the UK) were aware of it and obtained intelligence from it by the US or West Germany.

Countries whose communications were compromised include (but are not limited to) 62 customers: THE AMERICAS, EUROPE, AFRICA, MIDDLE EAST, REST OF ASIA, Argentina, Austria, Algeria, Iran, Bangladesh, Brazil, Angola, Iraq, Burma, Czechoslovakia, India, Egypt, Chile, Jordan, Greece, Indonesia, Gabon, Colombia, Kuwait, Hungary, Japan, Ghana, Honduras, Lebanon, Ireland, Malaysia, Guinea, Oman, Mexico, Italy, Pakistan, Ivory Coast, Qatar, Nicaragua, Portugal, Philippines, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Peru, Romania, South Korea, Syria, Mauritius, Uruguay, Spain, Thailand, Morocco, U.A.E., Venezuela, Turkey, Vietnam, Nigeria, Vatican City, Rep. of the Congo, Yugoslavia, South Africa, Sudan, Tanzania, Tunisia, Zaire, United Nations, Zimbabwe

The CIA was trying to exit quietly in 2017 - 2018 (because Hillary Clinton did NOT win!) and split up the assets for sale (e.g., nothing to see here!). Last month, when asked about the CIA ownership of Crypto, the lead executive of it’s last remaining assets “appeared visibly shaken” and worried about the safety of it’s employees when this information was released. All those countries listed above will want accountability. Wouldn't the POTUS just HAVE to prosecute??? :D
