Interesting Assertion from Bezos Affiliated Newspaper
February 15, 2022
My recollection is that Amazon, when under Jeff Bezos’ control, provided technology to the US Central Intelligence Agency. I was surprised when I read “Senators: CIA Has Secret Program That Collects American Data.” I have no idea if the story is on the money or note. I found it interesting that Amazon was not mentioned in the write up. Even though that interesting detail was omitted, I noted this passage in the article:
“These reports raise serious questions about the kinds of information the CIA is vacuuming up in bulk and how the agency exploits that information to spy on Americans,” Patrick Toomey, a lawyer for the American Civil Liberties Union, said in a statement. “The CIA conducts these sweeping surveillance activities without any court approval, and with few, if any, safeguards imposed by Congress.”
And Amazon? Not in the picture. Amazon’s client? In the picture.
