We all knew it .. doesn't make it right. They have been doing their damnedest by lying, denying, obfuscating, changing the laws and secret rulings etc to stay out of court about it.
Now they have to face the music for what are criminal actions.
They can stick their transactions graphs right up their backsides ... piss off with your snooping, who needs it in a free society?

I agree with you.
Anyone who has been reading the news has known that the NSA was monitoring transatlantic communication at the nodes of where the cables come into the US.
Also, the NSA is not looking at the actual content of our communication. They were merely creating a network graph of who talks to whom. Yes, that IS an intrusion, but they were working on the assumption that if you know who someone's friends are, you know who they are. I am interested in Bitcoin because I want to make money, and because I believe that if there is a form of currency that makes trade between individuals and small companies in different countries easier, the world will benefit. Snowden violated his employment agreement. He also screwed his life. He made a very bad investment.

I guess I'm the only one that thinks this guy is a nimrod.
He throws away his life, all to tell us the profound news that the US Govt is snooping on our communications.
ROFL
Anyhow, I'll throw in a bitcoin... a bitcoin to whoever catches the rat.

no, we didn't know it.
we've long suspected it, but didn't know it. especially in the ways Snowden described.
being able to "intercept" any one of us at any time. you, me, your wife, your accountant, your banker, your local Google rep, etc.
plus, he put it the context of blatant disregard and hubris from his bosses at NSA. we've got a problem and it's big.
Blame it on my incredible density.
