JAY: Okay. So recommendation one: it is possible to actually isolate and target real targets and not go after everybody.

BINNEY: And that means that you eliminate the collection of information about the other 7 billion people on the planet, which means you give them privacy.

JAY: And according to you, it's actually even more effective in terms of finding stuff.

BINNEY: Yes. Right.


Considering that they missed the Boston Bomber, already on a list of people who was being watched, by Russia eg, who shared information about him, this makes absolute sense. Had then not been watching the rest of us ordering pizza or planning baby showers, maybe they could have focused on HIS activities and the Boston Bombing might never have happened. I know those who support the security state do not like any reference to that total failure, but facts are facts.
