This is HUGE! It's precrime right out of the movie Minority Report.

Quote:
The agency was authorized to conduct “large-scale graph analysis on very large sets of communications metadata without having to check foreignness” of every e-mail address, phone number or other identifier, the document said. Because of concerns about infringing on the privacy of American citizens, the computer analysis of such data had previously been permitted only for foreigners.

The agency can augment the communications data with material from public, commercial and other sources, including bank codes, insurance information, Facebook profiles, passenger manifests, voter registration rolls and GPS location information, as well as property records and unspecified tax data, according to the documents.

Yep. Just give it away. Smart phones and tablets hand it right over, also.
Bit of humor here. LOL

This is such a disgrace. I can't wrap my head around it.

But remember folks: this is the land of the free. Repeat it. This is the land of the free.

Just don't ever question that statement. It is what you're programmed to believe and you have to believe it. No questions asked. If you somehow doubt you're free, you are no longer a patriot, you are not a "real American", you hate the troops that died for your "freedom", you are a wacko and an extremist.

Think George was pretty accurate.

Since In-q-tel used to own fakebook, sadly no surprise. If I had a young child I would delete his/her fakebook as its used by "others".

(what works in the kremlin doesn't work in Kansas)


There are currently several lawsuits at least, in progress.

agree w. everyone, its a disgrace.

+1 That's hilarious! My husband is a software engineer who won't join Facebook, or any other social network, for basically this reason.

The NSA is putting the old Stasi motto in to place, "to know everything". This latest revelation is truly beyond chilling and clarifies for even the simple-minded the Orwellian ambitions of General Keith Alexander's NSA. This needs to stop now!

People should start typing offline again, as they are doing in Putin's office.

The bs propaganda nsa is trying to spin on this is laughable. Remember Clappers testimony in June?. What a loser.

People will survive without using fakebook and google.
