Greenwald to publish list of U.S. citizens NSA spied on
Washington Times ^ | May 26, 2014 | Cheryl K. Chumley

Glenn Greenwald, one of the reporters who chronicled the document dump by National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden via the U.K. press, now said he’s set to publish his most dramatic piece yet: The names of those in the United States targeted by the NSA.

“One of the big questions when is comes to domestic spying is, ‘Who have been the NSA’s specific targets?’ Are they political critics and dissidents and activists? Are they genuinely people we’d regard as terrorists? What are the metrics and calculations that go into choosing those targets and what is done with the surveillance that is conducted? Those are the kinds of questions that I want to still answer,” Mr. Greenwald told The Sunday Times of London.

Yes, no doubt.

Of course, I meant to write ‘subscriber’s list’ - not ‘subscriber’s lost.’

Color my cheeks red.

So you’d prefer to live in ignorance that the premier signals intelligence agency in the world, is looking behind your curtains?

I know, I know, you have nothing to hide. Still don’t make it right. Gubment has so overstepped the bounds of their charter/authority, they’re not even in our galaxy anymore.

I think it will be very telling if the Tsarnev brothers are on the list.

I only know Angela Merkel is on the list.

I only know she's not. I also believe we would be negligent not to spy on her and all other foreign leaders.

“Consider your employer, neighbor, your kid’s school, etc. seeing your name on the list and wondering why.”

Or why it’s not...

God bless the whistleblowers. It’s dangerous and scary as hell,

Yet, here on FR a freeze,r just today, said that Snowden had no courage.

When I read stuff like that I go over to conservative treehouse.
