Guardian "walked back the 'direct access' claim made in Greenwald’s original article"

[Monkie]

7. do you know anything about technology?

it IS possible to set up a FTP server to give direct access to anything, across multiple machines if necessary, and correct me if im wrong, but the direct access claim was based on the PRISM slides themselves?
did you even read what you are quoting? you seem so busy trying to find excuses to go lalalala im wondering if you did?

That has allowed the companies to deny that there is “direct or indirect” NSA access, to deny that there is a “back door” to their systems, and that they only comply with “legal” requests – while not explaining the scope of that access.

this has allowed the companies to deny, this is NOT the same as proof? please consider the fact that if these companies are cooperating with the NSA and others, what makes you think the companies are allowed to be truthful, it would break the same laws you are so upset snowdon broke.
the guardian is reporting what the companies say, how is this the same as walked back? and even if they do correct a detail, what has that to do with the main point in all this?

obama has now admitted these programs exist.
there is bipartisan support for the fact there is over-reach
clapper has been caught out lying because of these leaks
and most recently mueller has been caught out lying.

but go ahead, keep grasping at straws, maybe you will find something that will convince you and stop the fear that seems to be driving you in your quest to deny anything is wrong.
