According to Edward Snowden, people who care about their privacy should stay away from popular consumer Internet services like Dropbox, Facebook, and Google. Snowden conducted a remote interview today as part of the New Yorker Festival, where he was asked a couple of variants on the question of what we can do to protect our privacy.

Suspected Somali Islamist militants have abducted five Kenyans who were transporting the stimulant khat on Kenya's northern coast, a regional official said, the latest in a string of incidents blamed on the Somali rebels. Somalia's al Shabaab group has launched a series of attacks on the coast in recent months, saying the attacks are punishment for Kenya's sending troops to Somalia to fight them.
