“The NSA has built an infrastructure that allows it to intercept almost everything. With this capability, the vast majority of human communications are automatically ingested without targeting. If I wanted to see your emails or your wife’s phone, all I have to do is use intercepts. I can get your emails, passwords, phone records, credit cards.”
The State Department on Wednesday conceded that two dozen of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s emails did contain classified information, a fact that could trigger a U.S. policy that authorizes the government to take control of her private server and sanitize the contents.
A former senior intelligence official told The Washington Times the policy also requires the government to check other Internet paths her secret information could have taken.
The procedures are spelled out by the National Security Agency’s special panel on controlling leaked secrets, called the Committee on National Security Systems. It published a policy, “Securing Data and Handling Spillage Events,” that fits the case of Mrs. Clinton’s unauthorized private server, kept at her home while she was secretary of state, according to the retired officer’s reading of the regulations

Traitor and under certain conditions he can be executed.
If anyone has ever read an in-depth bio of J. Edgar Hoover, you'd find Snowden's message to be 50 years too late! Spying on Americans? Good grief, that's been going on since the 1920's, which has only accelerated since then!
When J. Edgar Hoover first reviewed the concept of computers, back in the 50's, he was already dreaming of spying on everyone, and transferring his cumbersome, hand-written or typed files onto computers.
What Snowden had to say was an insult to my intelligence!
Obama is a test-tube president concocted from a Milneresque clandestine services recipe. He was never about liberty.
Sen. Obama was no different than Pres. candidate Obama. In fact the Sen. who temporarily, albeit very publically, deferred a decision on retroactive telecom immunity until voting for it would have been more honest about his Bolshevik authoritarianism.
Snowden is a hero. Our government is engaged in tyranical, unconstitutional activities.
