Just because you’re told not to doesn’t mean you don’t do it. Hell, that’s like a green light for some folks.

If there was a tool for such eavesdroping, and it was kept locked on a special server, with only a couple of people authorized for that server, and security maintained a control over those people and what they did....I might be willing to believe these folks.

I seriously doubt that they are running the game that way. This Snowden character...it would appear....cracked his way through their passwords and firewalls. So this comment here...doesn’t mean much in the real world.

I'm having trouble parsing this, Mr. Director.

Could a married analyst eavesdrop?

How about multiple analysts, can they cooperatively eavesdrop?

Did you leave the word "legaly" out, perchance?

Or is it not called eavesdropping if we do it?

And why should I believe that given that the agency [and government] said it wasn't listening in on the conversations at all? Moreover, why should I find any mercy for these who so blatantly defy the 4th, 5th, and 6th Amendments? — No, they need punished. Government agencies need to find themselves in terror at the idea of overstepping Constitutional bounds.

This seems to be coming out of the office of James Clapper, a proven liar and obfuscator, not a word from which can be believed.

I don’t believe Mr. Top Spy in the least. NSA chief Clapper said he gave Congress a Least Untrue Statement about what his agency was doing. Ergo, I believe none of them.

Section 702. Does lying Crapper mean to admit there’s a 1 to 701. What’s 701; The procedure for aiming cameras in your toilet bowl?

I’m sorry, but this is just pure spin IMO.

There’s too much out there these days for them to stuff the toothpaste back in the tube.

Define “proper legal authorization.”

Is he calling Jerry Nadler a liar? Oh wait. This was a statement from an office.

What? The analyst has to be married?

So what they are saying is it takes two analysts to bypass the requirement for a warrant.

maybe a “single analyst cannot eavesdrop...” as a matter of policy, but that’s not the same thing as not being capable of doing so. And if they’re capable, they’re doing it.

That could simply mean that only the analysts who have received proper legal authorization at some point in their careers can do the eavesdropping. But once they have that legal authorization given, they are free to do as they wish. I would imagine it would involve some type of course certificate to learn what they can or cannot do. Like for example: never ever bug the prezzy dude !
