Snowden used coworkers’ passwords to get NSA info – YouTube

Published on Nov 8, 2013
Former government contractor Edward Snowden persuaded 20 to 25 colleagues to give him their login information, including passwords, so that he could do his job as a computer systems administrator, a new report by Reuters says. Snowden used the information he gained through those coworkers to gather the information on the National Security Agency that he then leaked to newspapers starting in June. Last month, Reuters also reported that the NSA had failed to install the most up-to-date anti-leak software at the site in Hawaii where Snowden worked. Also last month, Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.) sent a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder asking that Glenn Greenwald, the reporter who broke the NSA scandal stories, be able to enter the US to meet with Grayson without being arrested. RT’s Ameera David takes a closer look at why Grayson wants to meet with Greenwald.
