Glenn Greenwald Expected to Reveal New NSA Information in Upcoming Book

Legal Insurrection

quote:
Today we have asked the Attorney General of the United States to personally take action to permit Microsoft and other companies to share publicly more complete information about how we handle national security requests for customer information. We believe the U.S. Constitution guarantees our freedom to share more information with the public, yet the Government is stopping us. [emphasis added]
comment:

One has to wonder why the government, meaning Eric Holder, should object to information released about national security requests made to private companies.  It looks like they are hiding something from the public that they would rather that we not know---such as the scope of the information and what the government is doing with it.  Meanwhile, they are gathering information about the public that is unreasonable and thus does not conform with the 4th amendment to the US Constitution.

It is unreasonable because there is no probable cause for suspicion.  It is unreasonable because the search is all-inclusive.  Everybody is treated as a potential terrorist.  What happened to innocent until proven guilty?

This is police state kind of stuff.  It needs to stop.
