Even if it was just like the outside of an envelope, I wouldn't let anyone flip through all my mail to see who I may be (or maybe be NOT) in contact with.
And my porn comes in discreet brown wrappings anyway.
I'm sure they could always use more time to collect past cases where it could possibly be interpreted that unrestrained surveillance saved the children, America, and saved God.
Sure it should be transparent. Couldn't imagine what your reason to hide it. Weapons are deterrents, no need to hide them, you actually want to claim you have more than you do. Also anyone who has been attached to the military has seen foolish wastes of money than could be mitigated simply by knowing they were extra eyes on them. (My first case, $40,000 to deck out the inside of a small prefab in painted Styrofoam for aesthetics purposes only -- a coat of black paint would have looked the same; $70 would have been more than enough)
And, this is a program that no one knew about until Ed Snowden leaked it to the Guardian and the Washington Post.
Mike, why are all the talking points ignoring what we knew before the Snowden leaks were published? We talk of metadata as if they don't have access to more. Here it is almost suggested we didn't know anything before Snowden. Maybe we didn't know the name PRISM but we did know they had capabilities surpassing metadata.
Why has everyone forgotten we learned about the ability to access actual content of phone conversations two weeks prior to Snowden? http://bit.ly/109wy7i [Guardian] http://bit.ly/11gawY1 [TechDirt]
CLEMENTE: "We certainly have ways in national security investigations to find out exactly what was said in that conversation."
Or is it just ignored as alleged because it wasn't an "offical" leak? Whatever that means. I just get sick of all the talk of only Snowden and metadata, when prior reports indicated full content.
If you don't believe other sources, then you'll have to be your own source, I guess. Nonetheless, letmegooglethatforyou.
In a The New York Times article (correction printed January 3, 2002) "No president has ever used the current [EAS] system or its technical predecessors in the last 50 years, despite the Soviet missile crisis, a presidential assassination, the Oklahoma City bombing, major earthquakes and three recent high-alert terrorist warnings...
You complete ignored what I spelled out. See that section that begins with "the issue is not her language"? That means that I, nor the court, have issue with her language.
Since that was offered in a single sentence, I'll have to assume you didn't even read it.
I thought that's why they have always said "ignorance of the law is no excuse". Although, WP doesn't seem to indicate the purpose was to proved for entrapment nor hypocrisy, but it's always been obvious to me.
