"But they're not keeping and reviewing data on Americans, and not looking at anyone without court orders!"

Yea.

[Despanan]

You beat me to it.

So yeah - what was that about us only being targeted if we're talking to known terrorist sympathizers?

I wonder - does Phant get a bye on searching for terms like this, due to his position in Intel?

Are some animals more equal than others...?

Care to walk what back Dex?

Something you posted from "The Guardian". Something you linked from an article about an article about a training document?
Pffft.

Contractors say certain things to sell their product. This is why they are contractors.
I've personally seen the amusing short-falls based on some of the product upgrades contractors were trying to claim they could do.

Ohhhhhh... Wait, no. I get it.
This is another case of "Dex saw it on tv or read about it online, so obviously it is completely without bias and must be stalwart truth, and ergo he is right about the subject when he's talking to someone that actively works in that field."

Keep trying fat boy.

Walk what back? Are you saying that XKeyscore doesn't exist? That it doesn't automatically trawl through far more people's information than you keep claiming? That it isn't as black and white "we can't do anything without a court order!" as you keep claiming? Oh, sorry, you don't want to admit any of that, so you attack the source.

Fine.

You have zero credibility, dude. I don't know, and don't care, what regulations are in place for what you do in the course of your job, but you don't work for the NSA. Stop trying to tell us what the NSA is, and isn't doing, and can, and cannot do.

There once was a time that I considered joining the NSA. Back in high school I even started up a cryptography and espionage club.

Turns out I don't like programming or computer science much.
