ONE statement from the government gives credibility to Snowden: [View all]

The Obama administration stated that the employees at the internet companies didn't know what they were requesting from them; didn't know what information the warrants were requesting. They spilled the beans right there.

Think about it--if the people at the internet company never knew what information that the NSA was requesting, how were they to answer the warrant and give them the material they needed? They didn't have to, because the NSA had access to EVERYTHING, and then "tasked" the system under the warrant for what it wanted. If they don't have access to the servers, then they have access to something else that has access to the servers.

They told on themselves.
