NSA Head Gen. Keith Alexander Heckled by HackersIn the background, a secret war is underway, apparently purging a circle of hackers, whistleblowers and investigative reporters connected to investigating NSA surveillance programs. On the heels of an easy hearing in Congressional testimony to explain away NSA surveillance activities in the wake of Edward Snowdens PRISM leaks, Gen. Keith Alexander, head of both the NSA and US CYBERCOM, attended the Black Hat hacker conference where he was heckled by privacy advocates in the crowd who stated their distrust for the secretive spy chief. At the same time, infamous hacker Barnaby Jack, turned up dead just days before he was scheduled to speak at the Black Hat confab alongside Gen. Alexander. Did Jacks knowledge about how to hack medical devices, ATM cash machines and modern cars play into the reasons for his death, or the rumors that a car hack was behind investigative journalist Michael Hastings death. It is apparent that there may be a connection, given the trail of dead, incarcerated and otherwise targeted journalists and whistleblowers including but not limited to Bradley Manning, Julian Assange, Barrett Brown, Michael Hastings, Glenn Greenwald and beyond.
