In reply to the discussion: Ex-NSA Chief Jokes About Putting Edward Snowden on Kill List... [View all]ehcross
(166 posts)The country's security is at stake here. Yet no one dares to point out that Edward Snowden, all by himself, was able to destroy a super sophisticated system that allowed his country a level of security never dreamed of.
Everyone is angrily accusing the NSA of breaching their rights to privacy. Not one cares about how U.S. Security had been upgraded to allow better capacity to detect threats on time.
Snowden destroyed years of high technology work leaving the U.S. exposed to danger again.
People don't seem to see farther than their nose, without realizing that THE U.S. IS NOW CONSIDERABLY LESS SECURE THAN IT WAS LAST YEAR.
Lastly, Brazil's president evidently has no need for the degree of security the U.S. evidently needs. Hence, she should not resent the U.S. need for hi-grade communications monitoring, one which might become very handy if her country is ever threatened.
