Apparently the NSA gets upset if you use their logo.

That was then. The Constitution has evolved since then, don’t’cha know?

That's just silly; why would they get upset? It doesn't look too bad, but it is rather plain.

I really don't know why they get upset. Maybe it has something to do with repetition.

But did a little thing like breaking the law stop them?

Why? I think it's real pretty.

I'd rather say it's understated.

This administration doesn’t follow any rules. Laws are made for those they want to control

I especially like the way the eagle is clutching the key to all our secrets.

I don’t think that is the official NSA logo.

Isn’t it the National Snooping Agency?

Photoshop it, anyone? I don’t have the expertise.

That might really make them mad, though.

Sorry for being late... in that video Ben Swann shows another logo that the NSA “borrowed” from someone else.

Here we go again. Somebody needs to post that chrome faucet with a big drop of water barely hanging on. Drip by drip it comes out.

Regarding this latest egregious behavior, I have two questions:

1. Who were the perps?

2. When are they eligible for parole?

's Okay. Are you saying this isn't the bona fide logo? NSA wouldn't plagiarize, would they?

I saw everyone posting the symbol/ logo and thought you would like the video.

That is their logo. In the video Ben Swann tells about a small graphics firm that was going to make t-shirts & used the logo and they told him it was copyright.

Ben goes into the full explanation on that.

The other logo that is shown in Ben Swann’s video is the logo for PRISM which was stolen from someone else and turned upside down. NSA / PRISM has never paid for that logo for PRISM and never given acknowledgment either.
