>How do you think the NSA's capabilities have grown in the past 3 years?
Not much. They still use a glitchy broken version of Windows 7 that most of their software is dependent on. Not to mention the spying tools they use just leaked.

I don't know, but now it is safe to expect that everything, and I truly mean everything is being logged and stored in the data center

its worse than that friend, think about it

they have our entire post history - so does google
and they have our IPs

just wait, until TVs are required to come with cameras, its already been like that with laptops for a decade or so

/g/ island when?
how about we all pitch in and buy a decommissioned military site and live in it?

>>56120625
Just posting in this thread to get in the NSA archives for threads about the NSA archives

>>56120708
Who cares if they record all my posts? It's not illegal to lie on the interweb, I've made up hundreds of stories back in my /b/ days. Obscure your digital footprint, they have extensions that do it for you now n days.

>>56120625
The data centre is a lot smaller than everything. We may not know a whole lot about it, but you can figure out some of their limitations, using power costs and storage space.

Also, unless you're doing something against the security of the American government, you don't need to worry. They have a limited scope that they operate under, and most other criminal shit outside of that scope won't be passed onto the relevant government agency, because 'muh spoopy sekret knowlegs' mentality extends into government too.

In case anyone still doubts the recent leak

>The file appeared to be real, according to former NSA personnel who worked in the agency’s hacking division, known as Tailored Access Operations (TAO).

>“Without a doubt, they’re the keys to the kingdom,” said one former TAO employee, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive internal operations. “The stuff you’re talking about would undermine the security of a lot of major government and corporate networks both here and abroad.”

>Said a second former TAO hacker who saw the file: “From what I saw, there was no doubt in my mind that it was legitimate.”

Why don't the Japanese know how to kiss? They just lick each other's tongues

If the NSA knows everything that happens online, why was there any question that Hillary was running an unsecured email server?

>>56120794
They have no souls, remember?

>>56120023
I am pretty sure they just store everything in that Utah data center. It's fucking huge. I am assuming NSA can mostly record everything you do on the internet by now

>>56120788
Is there a torrent..?

>>56120809
Ah, right.

I was actually reading some stuff on the Equation Group today after the NSA stuff yesterday. When you stop and think about it, it's pretty fuggen skari

>>56120023
>audio recordings of all calls
Is this true? This is a huge amount of data that would be very costly to store, AND very hard to access/read efficiently.

This is really true

The amount of petty politics and shit that goes on across agencies is amazing.

>>56120884
Utah data center could probably store 1TB for every us citizen, maybe more. They have an unlimited budget too. I mean, they are literally the NSA

>>56120894
Run

>>56120884
>audio recordings of all calls
>huge amount of data
I don't think so, audio files are small. videos use much, much more space... (yet youtube and porn sites exist, you can imagine the amount of data the NSA can manage)

You do know that all 3 letter agencies were recently given access to the NSA's databases, don't you? The scope is expanding.

I had an extension that did random google searches for a while. I uninstalled it when i looked at the logs and saw it was searching for cp occasionally.

It has gone way down because of all the incompetent niggers and women Obama has hired.

>it was searching for cp occasionally.
ho-ly fuck m8

What is the point of collecting all this data?

>>56121481
Read 1984 (they collect the data for complete control. Government can even use data from present to prosecute political enemies in the future for laws that don't even exist yet). Also, the NSA hires more mathematicians than any other entity in the entire world.

>>56120884
all calls are being recorded in my country, and im in the third world..

Do we even know if the NSA is collecting more than just Metadata?

>>56121636
Yes, their XKeyscore and DISHFIRE databases both store much more than metadata on everyone in the US.

sure m8, "the extension" was googling it.

>>56120797
there wasn't. And if you think an "unsecured mail server" is meaningful, then you would lose your mind at the way top secret information is handled IRL. At the end of the day it's a bunch of fully-grown kids playing "fort".

>>56120797
>why was there any question that Hillary was running an unsecured email server?
It's obvious they knew, and they just didn't care at all

>>56120023
Were there ever any nudes posted?
He was kind of cute then. Even now.

>>56121766
How is that account tied to Edward Snowden, or is it a joke?

Now, when you put it down like that, it really makes me think.
