If you've actually read the Snowden papers, you'd know that they don't say anything remotely resembling this.
- nebula8804 5y agoWell the report is circa 2013 based on years old documents from before that and it details bulk data collection of US nationals' phone related material. It is feasible that in the post smartphone world and the collapse of storage tech costs it is entirely possible that this has been expanded to any device that receives and transmits IP packets. That is enough to piece together everything needed to personally know about a specific individual. Storing this info for later use (even in encrypted form) is exactly what I was detailing and that is a foregone conclusion based on what we do know.
