The domestic spying programs of the government are pretty well known by now – wiretapping, intercepting phone calls, data tracking. But there are some other spying operations happening that you probably aren’t aware of.
Press TV has conducted an interview with Alfred Lambremont Webre, an international lawyer, about new revelations by American whistleblower Edward Snowden showing that the US National Security Agency (NSA) and Britain’s Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) have been spying on OPEC.

Protesters critical of the US National Security Agency’s surveillance activity demonstrate in Washington DC on Saturday to demand a stop to government spying. The demonstration, which is expected to culminate with a march on the Capital, was organised by a diverse coalition called Stop Watching US. The NSA spying controversy has been growing amid revelations that the US monitored the phones of several world leaders, including German chancellor Angela Merkel.

Dennis Saylor of the United States’ secretive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court has ordered the government to move forward with declassifying documents pertaining to its practice of collecting the phone records of millions of Americans in bulk.

The documents describe the secret program as the “widest reaching” system which can gather intelligence from computer networks. . . . Read Complete Report
