Offsite: Why Did Omidyar Shut Down The Intercepts Snowden Archive?,
September 23,
2019
https://washingtonbabylon.com/why-did-omidyar-shut-down-the-intercepts-snowden-archive/
18 November 2016. Add 59 pages to The Intercept.
Tally now *7,361 pages of The Guardian first reported 58,000 7files; caveat:
Janine Gibson, The Guardian NY,
said on 30 January
2014 "much more than 58,000 files in first part, two more parts" (no
numbers) (tally about ~11.5%). DoD claims 1,700,000 files (~.04% of
that released). ACLU lists 525 pages released by the press. However, if
as The Washington Post reported, a minimum of 250,000 pages are
in the Snowden files, then less than 1% have been released. Note Greenwald
claim on 13 September 2014 of having "hundreds of thousands" of
documents.
7 September 2016. Add 102 pages to The Intercept.
19 August 2016. Add 6 pages to The Intercept.

archive. Heres why: by Glenn Greenwald

14 May 2016. Add 4 pages to The Intercept.
16 February 2016
10 February 2016. Add 99 pages to Boing Boing
(released 2 February 2016). Tally now *6,318 pages of The Guardian first
reported 58,000 files; caveat: Janine Gibson, The Guardian NY,
said on 30 January
2014 "much more than 58,000 files in first part, two more parts" (no
numbers) (tally about ~10.6%). DoD claims 1,700,000 files (~.04% of
that released). ACLU lists 525 pages released by the press. However, if
as The Washington Post reported, a minimum of 250,000 pages are
in the Snowden files, then less than 1% have been released. Note Greenwald
claim on 13 September 2014 of having "hundreds of thousands" of
documents. At Snowden current rate it will take 20-620 years to free all
documents.

Saw your tweet re: sources for Snowden docs. I've compiled all the relevant
Canadian documents, along with summary information of the documents'contents
along with indexing information, here:
https://www.christopher-parsons.com/writings/cse-summaries/
In the coming months I'm hoping to have equivalent summaries for Australia
and New Zealand (and will then be moving on to do similar summary work for
US- and UK-based documents).

21 May 2015. Edward Snowden was quoted in Forbes on May 10, 2015:
http://www.forbes.com/sites/runasandvik/2015/05/10/what-edward-snowden-said-at-the-nordic-media-festival/2/
"What I did was that I worked in partnership with the journalists who received
the material. As a condition of receiving the material they agreed, prior
to publication, to run these stories by the government. Not for the government
to censor them, but for the government to be able to look at these and go
look, this isnt going to get anybody killed, this isnt
going to put a human agent behind enemy lines at risk or something
like that. This isnt going to make Al Qaeda be able to bomb
buildings. And I think the value of this model has been proven to be
quite effective."
This indicates all stories about document releases have been "run-by governments
prior to publication." Cryptome has filed an FOIA request to NSA for records
of these "run-bys."

11 July 2014. @PaulMD notes this
claim
in the Washington Post, 11 July 2014:
We did not have an official NSA list of targets. We had to find them in the
pile ourselves. Soltani, an independent researcher, did most of the heavy
lifting on that. Because the information was not laid out in rows and columns,
the way it might be in a spreadsheet, Soltani wrote computer code to extract
what we were looking for from something like a quarter-million pages of
unstructured text.
If a minimum of 250,000 pages are in the Snowden files, then less than 1%
have been released.

We've yet to see the full impact of former National Security Agency contractor
Edward Snowden's unauthorized downloading of highly classified intelligence
documents.
Among the roughly 1.7 million documents he walked away with -- the vast majority
of which have not been made public -- are highly sensitive, specific intelligence
reports, as well as current and historic requirements the White House has
given the agency to guide its collection activities, according to a senior
government official with knowledge of the situation.
The latter category involves about 2,000 unique taskings that can run to
20 pages each and give reasons for selective targeting to NSA collectors
and analysts. These orders alone may run 31,500 pages.
13 December 2013. Add 26 pages to Trojkan (SVT). Tally now 797 pages (~1.4%)
of reported 58,000. NSA head claims 200,000 (~.40% of that released). Australia
press reports "up to 20,000 Aussie files."
Rate of release over 6 months, 132.8 pages per month, equals 436 months to
release 58,000, or 36.3 years. Thus the period of release has decreased in
the past month from 42 years.
12 December 2013. Belatedly add 27 pages to Guardian and 18 pages to Washington
Post.

26 Years to Release Snowden Docs by The Guardian
Out of reported 15,000 pages, The Guardian has published 192 pages in fourteen
releases over four months, an average of 48 pages per month, or 1.28% of
the total. At this rate it will take 26 years for full release.
