Well Greenwald has already screwed up what NSA jargon for "directly from the servers" means and about tripled-down on it, so for future news releases I'm definitely going to have to look at the source itself and not Greenwald's spin on it.
You simply can't build the system that does what Greenwald claims for $20 million. You can build a drop box + FISA API for that amount though, but that would mean Greenwald is incorrect (or lying, take your pick) and the companies + NSA were telling the truth about that aspect.
- eightyone 13y agoMaybe PRISM is just the front-end to the government service. After all, we know they are running multiple services. Greenwald is really sticking to his guns on direct access, and from what he's told us he has a lot more information.
- mpyne 13y agoIf Greenwald would so much as acknowledge that other theories can explain the details he's leaked to this point I'd give him more credit. But he doesn't, either because he is obstinate or because he doesn't understand the technical nuances.
