Despised by most government agencies and hailed by many for exposing documents marked as classified, Julian Assange -- founder, spokesperson and editor-in-chief of Wikileaks -- has come out with another shocker by describing Facebook as the ‘Most appalling spying machine ever.’
In an interview with RT (a Russian television news network), Assange stated, "Facebook in particular is the most appalling spying machine that has ever been invented," when asked about the influence of social media in the recent Middle East revolutions.
He added, "Here we have the world's most comprehensive database about people, their relationships, their names, their addresses, their locations, their communications with each other, their relatives, all sitting within the United States, all accessible to U.S. intelligence."
