> A more logical explanation could also be insider theft. If that’s the case, it’s one more reason to question the usefulness of an agency that secretly collects private information on millions of Americans but can’t keep its most valuable data from being stolen, or as it appears in this case, being used against us.

If the perception that the NSA doesn't collect for the public good becomes broadly accepted, change can be achieved at a political level.
