What I was really taking issue with is the dismissiveness with you treated the suggestion that this might be an NSA attack. I was responding to what I saw as a slanted and unreasonable framing by doing the same thing from the other end.
I was dismissing the linked blog post as much as the suggestion of NSA involvement. The blog post took a single tweet with a single screenshot, screwed up half the facts ("tracking details for a computer Shepard ordered" — uh, no, it was a used laptop keyboard), sensationalized the other half ("it moved another four times around the military and industrial belt" — uh, no, it moved from IAD to Alexandria), and tacked a pile of rhetorical questions and conjecture on the end.
I somehow expected better from an ACLU chapter.
