Interesting that NSA doesn't dispute WSJ story, just distorted media accounts of it: http://www.nsa.gov/public_info/_files/speeches_testimonies/2013_08_21_Joint_Statement_ODNI_NSA.pdf …
@KenDilanianLAT What do you mean by compliance? Packets are content. See this for related VERY speculative Qs: http://www.emptywheel.net/2013/08/13/the-two-olc-still-secret-memos-behind-the-cross-border-keyword-searches/ …

@emptywheel Presumably there would be rules: Only use this to hunt for malware. At issue is can you trust NSA to adhere to those rules. -
@KenDilanianLAT Or can you trust Verizon, right? And what are the oversight mechanisms, the all-too-forgotten question. -
@emptywheel Right. And why do we seem to worry so much less about Verizon, which is selling location info in bulk, than NSA? -
@KenDilanianLAT Oh, I'm very worried. Who audits Verizon's compliance, for example? Does that get reported to Congress, FISC? -
@emptywheel But nobody is writing about it! Well, I wrote one thing... http://articles.latimes.com/2013/jun/30/nation/la-na-consumer-tracking-20130701 … -
@KenDilanianLAT NSA takes too much w/too little oversight. Consumer cos take too much w/too little oversight but penalties. (1/2)
