So the NSA is singling out Muslims who are politically active with Muslim organizations, regularly travel to Mecca or donate to Islamic causes. This is the best news out of the NSA since this whole thing broke. Unfortunately the damage done to national security by revealing who was being monitored is likely significant. Deep sleeper agents are now aware that they're on the list for extra scrutiny and will now go dormant or leave the country.

Honestly, I think Obama is just going to use this successful spying to divert from the fact he's spying on Americans.

Good for the NSA. Does this 1 good thing mean they'll delete all the emails, phone calls, IMs, pictures, google searches, bank statements, etc that they have on me?

No???

I dont know about "right" anyone doing real terror buries themselves in anonymity NSA cant crack from what I understand. Jihadi sites have whole how tos on programs, encryption, services to use in order to do so.

I'm sure NSA get some "gotcha" moments from otherwise peaceful people though.

nsa spying is only going to get worse,but i guess this is the result of a nation that blames bush instead of doing something useful to stop them
