NSA Whistleblower: Spy Agency Gathering Info On ‘Virtually Every US Citizen’

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 

National Security Agency whistleblower William Binney said on Friday that the US government is secretly gathering information “about virtually every US citizen in the country,” in “a very dangerous process” that violates Americans’ privacy.

NSA Headquarters

Binney, who resigned from the NSA in 2001 over its sweeping domestic surveillance program, delivered a keynote address at the HOPE Number 9 hackers conference in New York.

“They’re pulling together all the data about virtually every U.S. citizen in the country…and assembling that information,” Binney explained. “So government is accumulating that kind of information about every individual person and it’s a very dangerous process.”

In the decade after 9/11, in an environment of acute threat inflation, covert national security agencies like the NSA have been flooded with new funding and broadened powers. In the name of keeping Americans safe from foreign threats, basic liberties have been discarded.

Similarly, investigative journalist James Bamford wrote in Wired in March that “the NSA has turned its surveillance apparatus on the US and its citizens. It has established listening posts throughout the nation to collect and sift through billions of email messages and phone calls, whether they originate within the country or overseas.”

One anonymous official familiar with the NSA’s surveillance program told Bamford, “Everybody’s a target; everybody with communication is a target.”

      who are these guys that are listening in on my thoughts … they’re the ones i’d like to see brought before justice…

    • anyoneamongUS

      talk about an infringement of privacy… this beats all i’ve ever imagined… but IT’S TRUE!!! i wonder how many others out there are experiencing the same thing?

    • anyoneamongUS

      we should probably start documenting this stuff and begin meeting together somehow so as to form a real threat to whatever it is ‘they’ are up to… the only thing i ever did was to report a dream/vision that i had about an attack on the u.s. that came from the gulf of mexico region and was headed north-country from where i live in ms… it was very real-like and vivid to me that it didn’t seem like any ‘dream’ i’ve ever had before… there were like 6 go 8 missiles (yes, probably nuclear but that wasn’t really clear) …. anyways i saw to of these missiles fall behind the rest for a hundred feet or so and then you could hear them as they kicked in and caught back up to the rest of the formation (all of them seemed to be only a couple hundred feet above the ground)… the next thing that stood out was that i found myself trying to hide under a pile of bricks (with another person) to try and sheild ourselves from the blast… sounds crazy huh? yeah, i thought so too, but like i said, it was too realistic to just disregard…. i’ve recently heard how well we’re supposedly watching the east and west coasts to prevent just such an attack, but nothing seems to be being said about the gulf coast region… just saying…

      oh, i’m not a fear-mongerer … my full name is Anthony Todd Williams Sr….and i’m from madison,ms …. but in the dream i had i was in greenwood,ms , where i was born… i’d never want to unneccessarily scare ANYONE, however i do believe in sharing helpful info. with all humankind when possible… anyways, i hope that all it was was just a real bad dream… only had it the one time … so take it for what it’s worth… PEACE, LOVE, AND JESUS CHRIST to youall
