“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.

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).”
