Note that this clip ends prematurely. The program proceeded with Baroness Neville-Jones, a former Security Minister, to whom Wark posed the following questions, among others:
1) Shouldn't we have been told about this anyway?
2) Did you know this was going on?
3) When Neville-Jones said Snowden's revelations were helping terrorists,
Wark said that terrorists obviously already knew that their comms were
being monitored
4) What does it matter what the Brazillians are doing at Petrogas?
5) You might be going after terrorists but there are actually lots of
parties using these channels for business
6) Do you think there is enough control of these systems?
7) There has been a deliberate undermining by the Security Services of
encryption
8) Would you say, because you think there should be a review, that
Greenwald was right?
Neville-Jones also looked like she thought Wark's questions were ridiculous. Wark came from both angles and I didn't think she was very biased either way.
