Several prominent voices in the alternative media are speculating that former CIA analyst and NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden could be a double agent whose revelations are only serving to distract from the much bigger issue of the imminent escalation of the war in Syria.

Or they buy you a new Mercedes.
All this cellphone stuff is just in the air, and now internet too.
I can grab all that stuff.
There are laws that prohibit selling equipment that monitors those frequency’s, but old stuff already owned is legal, and if you have an iphone that sends and receives that stuff (everyone has one) You have the basic collection tool.
People keep giving away privacy to convenience.
Your cell has a GPS in it.
You think they cannot use that?
They invented it.
That could be a problem.
They are supposed to police internally for that stuff.
Oddly, most turncoat types are not driven by finance.
They are driven by ideology,allegiances and often, very guttural human things.
I would like to have some serious background on Snowden.
The Guy was making good money, living in Hi,shagging a pole dancer.
All with a HS deg.
Who is Edward Joseph Snowden?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Snowden
I know.
It is Wiki.
This guys claims smell like BS from start to finish, and i must remember I never heard him say any of this.
It is just a Wiki post on his biography.
Could all be BS.
He Seems to have a penchant for Asia which makes no sense.
Japan and China are quite different, but then again so is Hawaii.
Huge gaps in his career, lots of excuses, and he is off to the TOP! Even able to monitor Obamas personal communications.
Discharged from the army for two broken legs after 4 months stateside?
We have guys on their 7th rotation in Afghanistan.
Something stinks here.
Can anyone explain why the massive data collection center in Utah is a good thing? Isn’t there another one in New Mexico or something as well?
It just makes me wonder, if they are not collecting and storing info, why the enormous set of buildings? Thanks for your help
Texas has one; that said... maybe NM does too.
It just makes me wonder, if they are not collecting and storing info, why the enormous set of buildings? Thanks for your help
I believe the official reason is: Because… shut-up! You must be helping terrorists, wanting to limit the NSA!
Blame Bill Gates.
Why do yall need Terra Bytes of storage?
Why do yall need that Iphone with the camera and internet connection?
The perfect spy device.
People keep submitting to this stuff for convenience.
Treachery has been around from the time of Adam.
All I am saying is people begged for this convenience, they signed waiver forms because they could not be in inconvenienced.
Now they are shocked.
Knee jerk reactions are not the solution.
Surprise Surprise Surprise.
In some regards, the Gov is a reflection of the peoples will, or lack there of.
Put your life on the CLOUD, then complain that good people are tossing your rights away.
It’s disturbing, but I say let us approach this stuff with reason.
Snowden is a rat. He knew what he agreed to, he took an oath.
NSA was around for a long time before the current flap.
We often speak of watch dogs and wolves on FR.
Both are canine, one is mans best friend and one is mans scourge.
That oath was to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, no?
How then can keeping quiet about massive, wholesale violations of the Constitution (4th, 5th, and 6th Amd) because it was erected under the veil of secret clearance
?
If that is the case, then is there anything that would justify violating a security-agreement?
Assassination? Or conspiracy thereunto? (Note that's a JFK-assassination theory; before my time, but it serves as a good instance in this case: would the assassination of a president be protected because of secret clearance?)
I've heard it; but I think G. Washington's fire quote is more appropriate these-days.
It's amusing to hear somebody still defending this nation of moochers, cretins, ingrates, and parasites who have absolutely no respect for the military and who vote for big government to confiscate money from their neighbors so that it may be “redistributed” to them in exchange for their votes.
You take Edward Snowden for granted.
Who ever established his credentials ans a patriot?
He merely ingratiated himself to you as a constitutional patriot.
He has the Left and the Right quite rowled up.
They both love him.
I don’t even know WTF he is, so I say let us take pause.
I defend no such thing.
He is effed
Then why do you care if Snowden has released information about Big Government’s scheme to build massive data files on virtually every single one of its citizens?
