Documents reveal Canada’s secret hacking tactics

Posted on March 23, 2015June 30, 2025 by Dissent

But they’re polite while they’re stealing data and destroying infrastructure, right?

Ryan Gallagher reports:

Canada’s electronic surveillance agency has secretly developed an arsenal of cyber weapons capable of stealing data and destroying adversaries’ infrastructure, according to newly revealed classified documents.

Communications Security Establishment, or CSE, has also covertly hacked into computers across the world to gather intelligence, breaking into networks in Europe, Mexico, the Middle East, and North Africa, the documents show.

    oh my. I took great offence to the obvious non-Canadian who wrote that. Allow me to rewrite this the Canadian way:

    Canada’s Royal Communications Security Establishment has informally developed a depository of computational equipment capable of whittling data and sculpting adversaries’ infrastructure, according to newly revealed classified documents.

    Communications Security Establishment, or CSE, has also privately Inspected computers across the world to gather good tidings, lacerating weaknesses in networks in Europe, Mexico, the Middle East, and North Africa, the documents show.

    I think this is much better, don’t you?

    Thank you and may the moose be with you.
