That is a HUGE deal. That is so much more a huge deal than another article about IOS7, or another article about how google's reign is over. This! Over and over again. I hate seeing HN getting so politicized lately. But it is unavoidable considering the current state of affairs. Each time I click the upvote button an an NSA article I am a bit concerned that it will just end up in another NSA bashfest. But even here on hn the voices of the apologists for the unprecedented war on privacy by the Obama administration are too strong and can not be challenged enough.
