What incentive is that? The only people they have to prove their worth to are the people that have the power to shut them down.
We as a society do not have that power, and that should be obvious by now.
When a court decided what they were doing was illegal, less than a day later (probably the fastest anything has EVER happen in the legal system), another bench decided that what the NSA was doing was TOO BIG TO STOP. Like seriously, their argument for not stopping something UNCONSTITUTIONAL was that they were doing too much of it.
You and I, and every other civilian who actually understands what they're doing have ZERO power to stop them, so they have ZERO incentive to convince US what matters.
You know who they DO have to convince? The exact people that keep voting to KEEP THEM IN POWER.
I don't care what Obama and his administration claims, like I said, they have no incentive to prove anything to the American public.
- msutherl 11y agoI don't entirely disagree with you, but how do you explain that the former director of the NSA is seemingly fully engaged in explaining and justifying their activities? It would appear that they do have at least some incentive, no? https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=michael+hayden https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=michael+hayden
