What’s the difference between the NSA’s surveillance and Snowden’s documents?
The distinction forms the crux of the debate over the proper scope of NSA surveillance. The first Snowden document to be published by the Guardian was a secret court order showing that the NSA was collecting the telephone records of millions of US customers of Verizon, one of America’s largest telecoms providers.
Are the NSA’s surveillance programs really necessary?
Since the Snowden disclosures began, the NSA and the Obama administration have justified the agency’s programs by claiming they have been crucial to ‘successes’ in counter-terrorism. The NSA, in its defence, frequently argues that if today’s surveillance programs existed before 9/11, it might have been able to stop those attacks.
How many plots have been prevented by the NSA?
In the immediate wake of the early NSA revelations, the agency’s director, General Keith Alexander, claimed the NSA surveillance had contributed to the prevention of 54 plots. But that number has been picked apart by the US media and Congress, forcing the NSA to revise it down.
Which politicians are most sceptical of the NSA?
The politicians tasked with the greatest scrutiny are the Senate and House intelligence committees. Most of these — in particular Feinstein, the Senate intelligence committee chairwoman — have tended to be staunch defenders of the NSA. The long-term sceptics, such as Wyden and his Senate colleague Udall, have been a lonely band.
