Brit spymasters: Cheers, Snowden. Terrorists are overhauling their comms

Terrorists in Afghanistan and the Middle East are discussing changing their communication systems as a result of Edward Snowdens revelations, the boss of GCHQ said. Sir Iain Lobban made the claims during a meeting with MPs and lords on the Intelligence and Security Committee. The spy chief said he would only go into the specifics if the committee held a session closed to journalists and the public, claiming that revealing the details in the open would compound any damage done by Snowden’s whistleblowing. He said militants have discussed whether they should move to other communications packages that are less vulnerable to interception.”]
