Porn Habits Collected By NSA
This kind of crap should never by tolerated! Collecting embarrassing information in order to discredit a political opponent? Completely unacceptable! This proves that the government is wasting our money. We all deserve a 10% tax rebate retroactive over the last decade!

If they can collect anything, then they also have the ability to fabricate anything also. They could even plant evidence on personal computers, but they don't need to do that since they can simply create fake evidence of communication emanating from a computer belonging to someone they want to discredit. That's all they need to make someone look bad and it might even be enough to convict someone of illegal activity. This is not a safe situation!

Webcam Covers: I've always just used duct tape. It's pretty appalling that the FBI and the NSA are allowed to conduct this type of surveillance. And the fact that they can get authorization without there being any public records is even worse! The government needs to be held accountable and when they can do this kind of thing in secret there is no way to hold them accountable!

This video seems to put the whole Snowden NSA thing into perspective. Snowden never worked for the NSA directly. He worked for Booz!

Edward Snowden didn't actually work for the NSA, he worked for a contractor called Booz Allen Hamilton. How did it come to be that Snowden, working for a private company, was able to leak information about a top secret surveillance program?

This article claims Snowden said that we were too busy spying on Americans to catch terrorists.

surfsteve: That's not surprising. The federal government seems awfully worried about what we the people are up to for some reason. I don't think they trust us anymore. Of course, we don't trust them either.
