The NSA also thought visitors of LinuxJournal were "extremists," so what else is new?[0] [0]https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2014/07/the-nsa-thin

  I'm old enough to remember when Radio Shack was freaking people out by not selling them things if they had some unknown combination of components bought. They were so damn insistent on getting your address. Only store I always paid cash at because I was on an electronics kick and my friend had been told he was not allowed to buy some combination of components. That was friggin hilarious (he was building a controller for a pump), and I bought the components at another store location (Radio Shack was sadly the only game in town at the time).

  no, they don't. anyone who took more than 30s to read further than the headlines would see that this is an example of a set of checks for users of TAILS and points out that extremists often use this. its pretty obvious they don't consider linux journal in its own a sign of extremism. these would be refined to be more useful and then used together to check for TAILS_terms in a user's emails and they are also accessing TAILS_websites and then in conjunction with other flags to find POIs.
