STOP NSA's FUNDING They are totally out of control

The Washington Post opened a can of worms last Friday when it reported that,
in 2012, an internal NSA audit found that the agency had violated privacy
rules 2,776 times within just one year. The audit counted only violations at NSA’s Washington facilities — nearly 20 other NSA facilities were not included

Mike Rogers claimed that there have been “zero privacy violations” on the
part of NSA. After the leaked audit made news on Friday, he retreated to
saying that “there was no intentional and willful violation of the law.”

“I’m comfortable that if the American people examined exactly what was taking
place, how it was being used, what the safeguards were, they would say, ‘You
know what? These folks are following the law and doing what they say they’re
doing.’” (Pres Obama) .. N O .. T H E Y .. A R E .. N O T !

But the NSA audit found that in at least one instance, the agency decided it
didn’t need to follow the law and report the unintended surveillance of U.S.
citizens. In another case, the FISA court was in the dark about a new NSA
collection method for months. When it did learn about it, it promptly
declared it unconstitutional.
