I think the NSA spying/surveillancing harder on "us" then on "them" (the enemies).
- bigbugbag 10y agoI don't know who the "us" and "them" are here, but fact is the NSA is into global spying and mostly does industrial spying and "business intelligence" so the USA gets and maintains an edge over the rest of the world. But it also spies on US citizen to be sure to control dissent and shut people down.
- cies 10y ago> it also spies on US citizen to be sure to control dissent and shut people down. Yups. Shut dissents down, in an undemocratic way, to keep an undemocratic gov't from receiving public scrutiny. In the mean time keep up the appearance you're fighting (inter)national terrorism. Yeah for "National Security".
- nthcolumn 10y agoBy the very nature of the agency's remit their focus will be more in a domestic say than a foreign theater of operations, so 'yes' but 'unfair!' (the bad guys walk amongst you).
