WikiLeaks announced Friday that the National Security Agency is recording all cellphone conversations in Afghanistan. Monday, The Intercept’s Glenn Greenwald revealed that nearly all of the cellphone calls in the Bahamas were being recorded by the NSA, but held back from revealing that Afghanistan was also subject to mass surveillance. The journalist chose to call the second nation “country X.” WikiLeaks and its open information supporters lashed out at Greenwald, saying that security concerns were no reason to keep the public in the dark. RT’s Lindsay France takes a look at the NSA program and the controversy surrounding it.
