Stanford Researchers: It Is Trivially Easy to Match Metadata to Real People

83. First of all, you do your argument no good by calling Snowden "Snowjob."

Nasty little tactic normally used by people who don't have logic on their side.

Second, protesters can protest from jail? Who do you think you're kidding? Can they also organize from jail? Now THAT deserves a !

Third, Clapper sat in front of Congress and has ADMITTED lying about collecting information on Americans. THAT is not the NSA's job. And, he's using a totally brand new definition of the word "collect." They already have all of our info; they've already collected it and stored it, which is absolutely against the law. The info that the NSA doesn't collect, they get other countries to collect on Americans and they are sharing that information. It is TIA, all over again.

And, by the way, I notice you said nothing about the SOD and the fact that an agency that is NOT supposed to collect information on Americans IS collecting it and sharing it with other agencies, who then prosecute Americans. Even they know that's illegal, or they wouldn't have to be covering up the chain of evidence, and creating "parallel investigations." Is that okay with you, too?

You should be ashamed of yourself to be supporting such a thing. This is America.
