The Philippines is among the countries being secretly monitored by a telecommunications spying program of the US National Security Agency (NSA), as revealed by whistleblower and fugitive Edward Snowden.

Online publication The Intercept, a platform releasing Snowden's leaks, alleged in a post on Tuesday (Manila time) that NSA's cutting-edge surveillance program MYSTIC collects "metadata" and content from mobile networks in the Caribbean, Mexico, Kenya, the Philippines and another unnamed country.

"All told, the NSA is using MYSTIC to gather personal data on mobile calls placed in countries with a combined population of more than 250 million people," The Intercept writers Ryan Devereaux, Glenn Greenwald and Laura Poitras said in the report.

Metadata are information revealing message or call's time stamp, source and destination--information collected by MYSTIC that may be authorized by the host country and even by the telecommunications firms. The program also offers "near real-time, complete access to the additional target country's GSM networks," according to the document leaked by Snowden.

Another classified document, provided by Snowden, provides a NSA Special Source Operations' description of MYSTIC as a "program for embedded collection systems overtly installed on target networks predominantly for collection and processing of wireless/mobile communications networks."

There is no indication whether MYSTIC also intercepts phone calls and voice data in the Philippines, but it does pull text messaging data.

The Intercept said it asked NSA to comment, but it only said it does not collect foreign intelligence in an arbitrary and unconstrained way as it follows protocols to protect people's privacy. Philippine laws prohibit wire tapping and related violations not authorized by all parties concerned.

据《菲律宾星报》5月20日报道,美国“棱镜门”揭秘者爱德华•斯诺登披露的文件显示,称菲律宾也在美国安局秘密监控的国家之列。

刊登斯诺登泄密文件的在线网站The Intercept于马尼拉时间20日发文称,NSA代号为“神秘”(MYSTIC)的监控项目搜集加勒比地区、墨西哥、肯尼亚、菲律宾和另一个国家移动网络的“元数据”。

文章称,NSA用“神秘”项目搜集的个人移动电话数据涉及不同国家的2.5亿多人。该文作者之一格伦•格林沃尔德曾依据斯诺登提供的材料发表多篇文章揭露美国监视项目。

所谓元数据,是指电话或者短信的时间、来源和接收者等信息。美国情报界曾在2013年的预算方案提出出资成立“神秘”项目,称该项目有能力获取上述国家的全面元数据信息,还可近乎实时监控一些国家的全球移动通信系统(GSM)网络。

斯诺登提供的另一份文件称,“神秘”项目可公开在目标网络安装嵌入式采集系统,搜集和处理无线电话/手机通讯网络的信息,公开的说法是为电信公司提供合法商业服务。

尚不知晓“神秘”项目是否还拦截了菲律宾人的电话和语音数据,但一份文件显示,搜集短信数据是确凿的。

对于The Intercept的采访,美国国家安全局只表示,该机构没有以任意和无约束的方式搜集国外情报,并恪守保护个人隐私。巴哈马,墨西哥、肯尼亚和菲律宾方面均未回应。菲律宾法律禁止在未经当事各方授权的情况下执行窃听行为。
