Most people feel self-appointed to whatever cause they believe in.

But V for Vendetta was the best movie of all time! Of all time! I hear it even had a comic strip spin off it was so great.

 

How else will I feel like a badass anarchist vigilante while sitting behind my computer in comfortable middle class splendour, hmm?

Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra

I hadn't seen the full video before. When he climbed on top, why didn't they just drive on?

I would agree that 'creep' in the use of these terms devalues them, and undermines anti-terrorist action. It's lazy at best, and downright seditious at worst. Officials who indulge are a bigger strategic threat than many AlQ fundis. I'd like to see a couple sent to Gitmo pour encourager les autres.

That sounds about right.  They can have a computer gathering as much data as they want, but you still need a real person to sit down and look at it to make any sense of it.

 

edit:  And honestly if I am one of those 1.6% who are touched, the NSA has just wasted their time.

This is a very good point. Data only becomes intelligence in a given context. The NSA isn't going to be just scooping every porn site you surf, because why would that be important? Right?

 

Well, maybe it would, because even terrs use porn sites, and porn sites sometimes use credit cards to access. Credit cards give either addresses or thefts to track.

 

But the point Hurlshot's making - obliquely - is that unless you try to analyse the data it's just noise. And unless you have an objective for the analysis, you can't analyse. The person he's talking about is just a means to that end.

I'm not sure I understand.

Why would NSA need people for preliminary analysis and monitoring?

Those things are easily handled by computers.
