The NSA Is Building the Country’s Biggest Spy Center

Thanks Colonel for the article. I almost didn't post it due to concerns I have about national security for our country, but it makes sense that our enemies already have this general information. Our citizens need to know that their private communications are not private anymore, and the Constitution is being ignored big time.

'When Barack Obama took office, Binney hoped the new administration might be open to reforming the program to address his constitutional concerns. He and another former senior NSA analyst, J. Kirk Wiebe, tried to bring the idea of an automated warrant-approval system to the attention of the Department of Justice’s inspector general. They were given the brush-off. “They said, oh, OK, we can’t comment,” Binney says.

Sitting in a restaurant not far from NSA headquarters, the place where he spent nearly 40 years of his life, Binney held his thumb and forefinger close together. “We are, like, that far from a turnkey totalitarian state,” he says.'
