A revelation from the Edward Snowden document leaks shows a CSE (Communications Security Establishment) program called LEVITATION has been monitoring, analyzing, and tracking millions of people who utilize popular file-sharing websites. The program secretly “taps into Internet cables and analyzes records of up to 15 million downloads daily from popular websites commonly used to share videos, photographs, music, and other files,” according to a joint report released by The Intercept and the CBC on Wednesday. File-host companies Sendspace, Rapidshare and Megaupload were named in the leaked document. We take a look at the Canada spy agency’s global internet watch, in this Lip News clip with Mark Sovel and Elliot Hill.
