Disclaimer: I don't know the truth about anything that's going on.
First, I'm not a US citizen. So, it seems I just have to assume that NSA is certainly tracking me.
Now to the topic of spying on US citizens, considering how no one seems to have ever heard about PRISM, the breaking of this story based on flimsy evidence seems to me like an attempt to side track from the real and confirmed story of NSA accessing Call Data Records from Verizon of millions of citizens (The industry calls it CDRs, why have we started calling it "Metadata" since yesterday).
I wouldn't be surprised (though I have no evidence at all) that the PRISM story was planted to change the public discourse.

- brown9-2 13y agoTo cover from the Verizon story, the government planted a story that makes the practice look even grander in scope? The idea that they want to cover up the Verizon story is negated by the fact that many Congressional leaders came out immediately afterwards and said basically "yes this has been going on for years, they continually renew the 3-month orders, it's all telcos, we are pleased with it".
