No, I said very specifically that PRISM was a non-story, despite what Snowden clearly believed.
NSL letters [sic] are for metadata collection. Of those, Snowden released documents about a single illegal extant program using NSLs, which was phone metadata collection. If he had understood the documents he was releasing, he would have pushed that story instead of PRISM.

- lern_too_spel 6y agoThat quoted statement is true and is especially true with regard to PRISM, which is the context. That PRISM isn't what Snowden claimed it was is my main point. Do you disagree with any of what I have said here?
