Did you just learn this today? What new info are you posting that hasn't been hashed out already here?
I am sorry to say I did. I had no idea about the emails and chats, Facebook etc. I know there were rumblings with no evidence...but this confirms those rumblings.
I wanted to share this as well. It states that a government court did in fact rule prism unconstitutional but the doj ignored the judgement in 2011. Nice.
Don't worry folks. Didn't you hear dear leader on Friday? All is well...........
On Friday, President Obama defended the agency’s collection of phone records and other metadata, saying it did not involve listening to conversations or reading the content of e-mails. “Some of the hype we’ve been hearing over the past day or so — nobody has listened to the content of people’s phone calls,” he said.

Hopefully this will open their eyes as to how stupid and ignorant many Americans are, maybe they will finally take steps to improve our schools.
Oh, they already know how "stupid and ignorant" many Americans are, They count on it to get elected in the first place and reverently work to keep it so. Especially with support such as yours.
The National Security Agency has obtained direct access to the systems of Google, Facebook, Apple and other US internet giants, according to a top secret document obtained by the Guardian.
"The NSA access is part of a previously undisclosed program called Prism, which allows officials to collect material including search history, the content of emails, file transfers and live chats, the document says."
"The NSA access was enabled by changes to US surveillance law introduced under President Bush and renewed under Obama in December 2012."
"The program facilitates extensive, in-depth surveillance on live communications and stored information. The law allows for the targeting of any customers of participating firms who live outside the US, or those Americans whose communications include people outside the US.
It also opens the possibility of communications made entirely within the US being collected without warrants."
When are some of you going to wake up?
Why have you been asleep about this for over ten years?
When the Liberal media start reporting real news but that won't happen. Does Chris Matthews who insisted Benghazi was because of a video still get that tingle up his leg?

they were doing this a long time ago, after 911, they put it in place...but people don't remember that any longer, but there was a big what to do about privacy then...and a whole lot of people who were tramatized by 911 said they agreed with it and it was ok. Do you remember?
