ISPs take legal action against GCHQ [Excerpts] 





Seven internet service providers have filed a legal complaint against the UK's intelligence agency GCHQ.

ISPs from the US [World Tyrant], [Poodle] UK, Netherlands and [Puppet] South Korea have joined forces with campaigners Privacy International to take the agency to task over alleged attacks on network *infrastructure*.

The ISPs claim that alleged network attacks, outlined in a series of articles in Der Spiegel and the Intercept, were illegal and "undermine the goodwill the organisations rely on".

The allegations that the legal actions are based on include: 




claims that employees of Belgian telecommunications company Belgacom were targeted by GCHQ and infected with malware to gain access to network infrastructure 



GCHQ and the US National Security Agency. . .had a range of network exploitation and intrusion capabilities, including a "man-on-the-side" technique that covertly injects data into existing data streams to create connections that will enable the targeted infection of users 




the intelligence agencies used an automated system, codenamed Turbine, that allowed them to scale up network implants

German internet exchange points were targeted, allowing agencies to spy on all internet traffic coming through those nodes. 









Some on right push to impeach Obam [Excerpts]

For many on the far political right, it’s high time to charge President Barack Obama with high crimes and misdemeanors. 


The “I-word” –-impeachment—- is creeping back into the political lexicon nearly 16 years after the House of Representatives impeached President Bill Clinton for lying under oath about his affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky. 


From conservative media outlets to the campaign trail to book stores, chatter about impeaching Obama and members of his administration has heated up in recent weeks. 


South Dakota’s Republican Party passed a resolution at its June convention calling for Obama’s impeachment for violating “his oath of office in numerous ways.” 


“We wanted to have a shot across the bow to the president and Congress that nobody is above the law,” said Dr. Allen Unruh, the delegate who sponsored the resolution. 


“Our goal is to embolden Congress.”
