NPR: In an interview with NPRs Morning Edition, [Glenn] Greenwald said one of the more shocking things hes found is that the National Security Agency physically intercepted shipments of computer hardware, like routers, switches and servers, to outfit them with surveillance equipment. Once they were done, they repackaged the hardware with factory sealing and sent it on its way to unsuspecting companies. Greenwald says that for years, the United States has been warning global companies about buying Chinese products because they could be outfitted with surveillance hardware. This revelation, Greenwald says, exposes an extreme form of gross hypocrisy on the part of the U.S. government. Greenwald, who won the Pulitzer Prize last month for his NSA reporting, has a new book out.
