http://thestateweekly.com/nsa-director-alexander-admits-he-lied-about-phone-surveillance-stopping-54-terror-plots/
So, the director of the NSA now admits to lying about his previous statements when pointed out by a senator in Vermont.
He stated that 54 terror-plots were stopped as a result of mass surveillance.
In reality only one or two suspected plots were identified as a result of mass phone surveillance.
41 of the 54 cases weren't even in the United States.
And these liars are the people that have access ALL your personal data?
Not to mention that they only spend a few billion a year on this collection of data. I mean, at prices that low they can't afford not to spy on you! Never mind the impending economic crash.
You Americans are ****ed. My condolences.

NSA still claims to have stopped 54 terror-plots after admitting to lying about it. (described and linked two comments up from this one)
This is just beyond ******ed.
Dianne Feinstein employs every cliche she possibly could while defending NSA "Metadata Program"(surveillance program).
NSA demands that secure services give them their data (which means that these services are essentially backstabbing their customers since the service is no longer secure). Now more secure services shut down in fear of NSA demands.
Citizens' rights are nothing compared to the "rights" of companies.
The French are not pleased with what the NSA is doing. Let's hope they can get something done.

"I sexually Identify as an Attack Helicopter. Ever since I was a boy I dreamed of soaring over the oilfields dropping hot sticky loads on disgusting foreigners. People say to me that a person being a helicopter is Impossible and I’m ****ing ******ed but I don’t care, I’m beautiful. I’m having a plastic surgeon install rotary blades, 30 mm cannons and AMG-114 Hellfire missiles on my body. From now on I want you guys to call me “Apache†and respect my right to kill from above and kill needlessly. If you can’t accept me you’re a heliphobe and need to check your vehicle privilege. Thank you for being so understanding." - Guuse
