Well, the American people are offended along with most of our allies. I've heard it before and the attitude is not appreciated.
"W" loved to place the idea of complete innocence of government personnel over and above the rights of Americans. My favorite was when "W" addressed the environmental community. It went something like this, "Everyone involved with the energy community are people with children and families that don't want to see any environmental abuse."
Ask Dish, Texas what good that attitude did them?
The NSA has no right to invade the privacy of Americans or any foreign power for the sake of casual evaluation. Complexities are bullshit. Complexities is an excuse to give license to a government structure that knows no morality. Mass surveillance of any country is outrageous, offensive and dangerous to citizens.
The National Security Agency has implanted software in nearly 100,000 computers around the world that allows the United States to conduct surveillance on those machines and can also create a digital highway for launching cyberattacks.
This is NOT metadata. This is stealing the rights of people and governments to exist in privacy that secures them and their nation. There is SPECIFIC spying and there is specific targets and it has to end. There will be no generalized hunt for a human being that can cast into an obscure prison forever.
The program needs to end. The transition needs to happen at warp speed.
End of discussion!
Do you know who stopped the Shoe Bomber? A stewardess did.
Not the NSA.
Do you know who stopped the Underwear Bomber? A passenger did.
Not the NSA.
The people of the USA has had enough of incompetency and it's cost.
The NSA has never stopped any so called terrorist from entering the USA or carrying out their crimes against the citizens. It's effectiveness ended a long time ago.
This is a Snowden document. It reads like a high school term paper, except, it explains why the NSA needed a budget of $52.6 US so that citizens have to be irradiated at airports in order to make their next business meeting. Frequent travelers get tired of being pat down and it is more time consuming than walking through a radiation scan.
'Black Budget' leaked by Edward Snowden (click here)
PUBLISHED: AUGUST 30
A top-secret budget (click here) document obtained by The Washington Post from former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden provides new details about U.S. intelligence and surveillance efforts. The so-called “black budget” describes, among other programs, the NSA’s hacking unit, known as Tailored Access Operations:...
The NSA in it's opening paragraphs even promises to be a good agency and cut down on spending. I suppose so, because Americans don't get any returns on their investment. In actuality, they are personally compromised by this expenditure by their government of an agency that is basically worthless.
If the NSA is so very good at verifying if individuals are in or out of the USA, then why is Immigration Reform impossible to pass because one of the reason it receives objection is Overstayed Visas. The NSA can't find people that have stayed too long in the USA?

...A new report from Pew Research's Hispanic Trends Project (click here) confirms what many of us have long suspected: Illegal immigration appears to be on the rise again, after a brief decline during the recession. The report estimates that the population of unauthorized immigrants was approximately 11.7 million in 2012, up from 11.5 million in 2011, but down from a peak of 12.2 million in 2007. The report also made upward revisions to previous estimates of the unauthorized immigrant population. According to the report, the foreign-born population, legal and illegal, is now at 41.7 million, and 28 percent of those migrants are here illegally....
