What the NSA Really Knows

James Bamford

The NSA has access to virtually everyone’s phone records, and can store, data-mine, and keep them indefinitely. Edward Snowden’s documents show that the agency is also accessing the Internet data of the nine major Internet companies in the US, including Google and Yahoo. These documents add greatly to an understanding of just how the NSA goes about conducting its eavesdropping and data-mining programs, and just how deceptive the NSA and the Obama administration have been in describing the agency’s activities to the American public.http://www.nybooks.com/articles/archives/2013/aug/15/nsa-they-know-much-more-you-think/?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=July+30+2013&utm_content=July+30+2013+CID_950e001a3e1de8eb1c2fb4ee9035453a&utm_source=Email%20marketing%20software&utm_term=What%20the%20NSA%20Really%20Knows
