@LiberalinMD We do it for foreign surveillance. This would permit it for domestic surveillance. -
@emptywheel Isn't one of the Snowden revelations that private defense corps DO do surveillance on Americans? -
@LiberalinMD Not sure which part you're thinking of. -
@emptywheel OK, so Snowden wasn't actually working for "the govt" he was working for Booz Allen Hamilton. -
@LiberalinMD Yes. But you don't have a contract w/Booz. You do w/a phone company which runs Internet backbone. -
@emptywheel Not my point--only point was that we already have privatized surveillance of U.S. citizens. -
@LiberalinMD When have private sector getting paid to spy AS agents of govt w/in framework allegedly targeting foreigners. - 5 more replies
