Google Has Something To Say About The WikiLeaks Disclosure
Mar 9, 2017
The latest news from WikiLeaks is that any device with a camera can be used as a CIA spy device. Phones, tablets, televisions, even wireless baby monitors. But, just like Apple has been saying, if we update our devices regularly, we "should be safe." Google is the latest in a series of tech companies to "weigh in" on the statement in an attempt to put us all at ease. According to NDTV, WikiLeaks released what is known as a Vault ...

Dec 14, 2016
There is less than two months until Donald Trump gets sworn in as the 45th President of United States of America.

Limitless: 01x08; When Pirates Pirate Pirates
Mar 31, 2016
With much of the shows’ attention focussed on Finch and Harris, with a little bit of Morra thrown in now and again for good measure, this weeks’ episode of Limitless strayed off the beaten track to look at the back stories of Naz and Boyle, two of Harris’ colleagues within the FBI. We start off with Naz heading to D.C. to investigate further who sanctioned Brian’s earlier kidnapping. She warns Finch that if things don’t go to plan, he may have little choice but to hide out in her apartment – complete with biometric security and, of course a fully stocked fridge. It soon comes to light that the only reason the top bosses at the FBI allowed Finch to stay in New ...

Limitless: 01x07; Brian Finch's Black Op
Mar 24, 2016
Whereas many in a rather high profile job wouldn’t even consider skiving off, we begin this weeks’ episode of Limitless with Finch doing exactly that. With five NZT pills (not literally) burning a hole in his pocket, he decides he’ll use one of them to have a great day out of the office – not that such a plan does exactly the way he wants. In rather dramatic fashion, before he even has time to truly contemplate what to do with his free day – after making a ‘cough-cough’ call to the FBI – he finds himself kidnapped and dropped off in the middle of Pennsylvania by the CIA who are aware of NZT and the fact Finch is a user. Of course, the CIA being the CIA, they’re not enti...

Oct 15, 2014
Former New York Times Executive Editor Jill Abramson has revealed that Condoleezza Rice asked her to kill a story about the CIA. In an interview with 60 Minutes, Abramson said Rice, who at that time was still serving as National Security Advisor under former President Bush, had asked to meet her in a undisclosed location. “She had a legal yellow notebook on her lap with lots of notes on it, and once I had taken a seat across from her, she barely looked up,” Abramson recounts the meeting. ”She basically read in a very stern manner from her notes on this legal pad...

'Taken 3' Gets Its First Official Trailer
Oct 2, 2014
Attention all fans of elder individuals kicking ass, here is the trailer for the 3rd installment of the Taken series! Liam Neeson reprises his role as Bryan Mills, a retired CIA operative who is just trying to live a normal life and be close to his family, but trouble keeps knocking at his doorstep. Can't this man get a break?! I loved the original Taken, but I didn't really care for the sequel. It seemed they wanted to make a sequel just to have one. There was hardly any plot, and I actually fell asleep during the film, but the 3rd installment looks appealing. Mills finds his life completel...
