That doesn't mean you shouldn't ask for sources. Otherwise it's just blind fear mongering.

- sp332 12y agoWell, Binney was an NSA employee and is now on the record saying that their goal is population control. That is a source.
- josefresco 12y agoHe was an (important) employee but did not speak for, or set the NSA agenda. He's also disgruntled. This makes the quality of the source less than ideal. Now if he had some sort of memo or recording that would change the source, and could provide more credibility.
- timdiggerm 12y agoAlthough that's true, I consider anything he says about the NSA's current activities and goals increasingly inaccurate the longer he's not there.
- fnordfnordfnord 12y agoI think it is fair to say that the NSA's activities and goals have not become "better" (from the perspective of civil liberties) since 2001.
- cowardlydragon 12y agoHey, how about you give me all the account numbers and information to access your bank accounts? It doesn't mean I will take your money in the future. That's just fear mongering.
