More NSA leaks to come, Guardian says
Computerworld ^ | 10/1/13 | Zach Miners

The flood of stories on government spying will not be slowing soon -- in fact the majority of the most important documents detailing how the U.S. National Security Agency collects personal data have not been published yet, journalists from U.K. newspaper The Guardian said on Tuesday.

The British newspaper responsible for breaking many of the stories surrounding the government surveillance program known as Prism said that there are thousands of relevant documents that it has obtained from former NSA contractor Edward Snowden. Of those documents, the majority of ones that should, and will, be published still remain, said Glenn Greenwald, a reporter for the paper who has been covering many of the leaks.

"There are definitely huge new stories to come," he said, adding that "there are still many specific revelations that I think will surprise most people, coming imminently."...

One question is the extent to which the revelations surrounding the NSA have constituted actual illegal activity. The journalists were asked to address this, and whether there would be more "smoking guns" providing undeniable proof that the government has broken specific laws.

"I think there already are things clearly showing the government broke the law, including the Constitution," Greenwald said.

Some previously classified documents have shown that the NSA has operated illegally in certain cases....

And the only news this makes is with the foreign services.

The obedient subordinates of the Leftist Media are under orders to spike the story.

Yep. That’s why the sheeple still think Barack Obama is a patriot and Edward Snwoden is a traitor.

Why don’t they release what they have on THE FOREIGNER and his fraudulent Birth Certificate, SS# and Draft Card. As well as Pelosi and the rest of the anti american democrats involvement in the eligibility scam. Also, the back and forths between EPA, White House, Waxman, and the enviroMENTALS would be interesting.

The American Pravda is fully cooperative to make sure important news never makes it to America.

Before a few years go by, the internet will be firewalled so these sort of news stories cannot make it to us.

Even though they’re releasing this information, it’s still the commie Guardian. Has anything they’ve said made it clear that this wasn’t a “rogue” government, that this stuff is clearly tied to Hussein and his administration? I don’t care how far they go back and who else they catch in their net, they can’t avoid him.

If the Leftist Media is spiking the story, nobody told the Millennials. The ones I encounter are hanging on every word of this.

You run with a different crowd then, Buck. The youts I encounter are too absorbed with Netflix, Breaking Bad and the size of Kim Kardashian’s ass, to be worried about the encroaching Oceania.

Unfortunately for the mainstream media, their monopoly on mass communication has gone the way of Nineveh and Tyre.

We already do (e.g. Mike Rogers (R(INO)) of the "Intelligence" Committee):

Yet some NSA defenders continue to insist that nothing is wrong. Back in July, House Intelligence Committee chair Mike Rogers claimed that there have been "zero privacy violations" on the part of NSA. After the leaked audit made news on Friday, he retreated to saying that "there was no intentional and willful violation of the law."
(Note: The latter statement, as we now know, was also a big fat lie. I haven't heard what new BS Rogers is spinning in its place.)
