A guide to NSA's domestic spying through the years

Infrequently asked questions

How many politicians, including presidents, have been blackmailed by NSA, CIA or the FBI. How would we know? Just wondering.

NSA head not only wants to right to ingore the law, but lawsuits as well

Why the FISA Court is a scam

NSA told Congress it doesn't need court authorization to listen to your phone calls

Your loss of constitutional rights thanks to NSA is a huge pork barrel for private industry

Al Gore on NSA spying: This in my view violates the constitution.. . . It is not acceptable to have a secret interpretation of a law that goes far beyond any reasonable reading of either the law or the constitution and then classify as top secret what the actual law is.

William Binney, a former NSA official who claims to have designed the prototype of the program that allows the NSA to sweep up almost infinite amounts of information, told the New Yorker’s Jane Mayer in 2011 that he regretted his input. “I should apologize to the American people,” he said. “It’s violated everyone’s rights. It can be used to eavesdrop on the whole world.”

Nancy Gertner - As a former Article III judge, I can tell you that your faith in the FISA Court is dramatically misplaced. Two reasons: One … The Fourth Amendment frameworks have been substantially diluted in the ordinary police case. One can only imagine what the dilution is in a national security setting. Two, the people who make it on the FISA court, who are appointed to the FISA court, are not judges like me. Enough said.
