Drat. This means I need to manually post another daily summary. :-) 20:13
Fun Read -> RT @AthertonKD: Greenwald and Schindler, Fistfight in Secrecy http://sfy.co/s9Js #storify #snowden #nsa 21:58
Looks like more Greenwald NSA stuff today (and I realized I missed a bit earlier too). I’ll have to catch up soon, but you know.. work. 22:40
From the bit I’ve skimmed though, seems like more “within the law” stuff. Bad law, allows way more than it should. But still legal. 22:43
