MINNEAPOLIS– This past Tuesday saw the biggest shake-up in the tech world since Edward Snowden first revealed the full extent of the National Security Agency’s “dragnet” surveillance program nearly four years ago.
In 1965, American consumer rights advocate Ralph Nader forever changed the car manufacturing industry when he published ‘Unsafe At Any Speed’. The book exposed how popular American cars were patently unsafe through the omission of important safety features as well the presence of unnecessary accoutrements.
The book is especially memorable for its attacks on the stylish Chevrolet Corvair.
For a seemingly egg-head minded subject, the book proved to be revolutionary in the changes it brought about in the car industry.

Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has revealed at a press conference earlier today that WikiLeaks will give tech companies which suffered ‘billions of dollars of damage’ when hacked by the CIA ‘exclusive access’ to its technical expertise.
Assange said the leaked information came from an isolated computer on the network at CIA headquarters in Virginia. He described the loss of the information as a “historic act of devastating incompetence.”

(REPORT) — On Tuesday morning, at the same time that Wikileaks was releasing the contents of “Vault 7” CIA-document dump, it was supposed to hold a press conference, which however was said to have suffered terminal technical difficulties.

WikiLeaks’ Julian Assange held a press conference following the release of the first part of Vault 7, the largest archive of CIA related classified documents to hit the internet.
The main announcement that came from Julian Assange was the revelation that Wikileaks may be working with the tech community to secure the world’s data and privacy against the vast power of the CIA’s data gathering capability.
A “Digital Geneva Convention” (as outlined by Microsoft), looks like it will come into being. Wikileaks working with the tech community to stop CIA intrusion and hacking.
