There are a few diamonds in the mountain of horse manure you find in most gov't agencies. He's a legitimately smart guy based on what I've read from him. And a bold one. Despite the lip service the gov't pays towards whistleblowers, they don't want stuff like that to get out and will try to punish you.
Well you are supposed to be a whistleblower to the government, not on the government. LOL That's how it works.
Nothing abnormal We are being eavesdropped by whatever. The less significant we are, the less we will be eavesdropped.
It doesn't matter who you are. Having letter-agencies eavesdrop on your conversations is a clear violation of the 3rd amendment. You can't be forced to quarter soldiers...nor should they monitor your calls, texts, emails, website comments, etc. as if they were in your house watching you.
I think it was also true in the early 1970s film The Conversation which was based on memoirs from a former NSA agent. I think even Enemy Of The State was based on the writings of a former NSA agent (Gene Hackman plays pretty much the same character in both films). Its interesting that both Sneakers and The Conversation take place in the SF bay area although The Conversation takes place in SF and Sneakers takes place in the Peninsula specifically Palo Alto (probably the only film that goes over the Dumbarton Bridge).
