“So, we just discussed how it appears that Dianne Feinstein accidentally confirmed what was widely suspected: that the NSA is tapping the internet backbone to get access to emails. This is interesting on many levels, not the least of which is that Feinstein herself has been famously harsh against any kind of leak, regularly arguing that the leaks themselves are more damaging than what the leaks may reveal about US government abuse. In the past, Feinstein has raged against leakers. She has argued that Ed Snowden is a ‘traitor’ for revealing information, though unlike her, he didn’t reveal this particular program (or at least it hasn’t been reported on yet).”
