Does it really matter how private & secure your network is when the nsa can capture all traffic in the upstream? They can't spy on any US citizens they say, that's the rule, & they have many oversight committees such as Congressional oversight committees to watchdog them. Tricky nsa moved the Upstream & Downstreams to South Africa. So a US citizen's data is no longer in the USA_technically...& they can collect it. Bulk collection, encryption breaking, data mining with algorithms & keywords....but they only keep it all for 72 hours then it gets securely deleted. That's the way it is boys. And I'm not a hacker, at all & I found this. I believe the thing to do is fly stealth under the radar at all times, as minimally as possible, and count the hours (72) between transmissions.
