Key #NSA domestic spying program shut down? 1ST public revelation Dec ‘05 in @nytimes via Risen/Lichtblau. I blew whistle right after 9/11, then Congress/DoD IG on STELLARWIND then to press early ‘06. #Snowden disclosed metastasized program ‘13 nytimes.com/2019/03/04/us/…
Important to note that there a number of NSA surveillance program shells/cutouts beyond just call/text records in the form of ‘other’ programs & authorities/authorizations that exist including executive order 12333 as a master backstop blanket shadow license cover.
In addition, the telco/tech/IT/data brokers/social media corp complex have massive platforms of vast real-time surveillance and many have special exceptional agreements to ‘share’ with or provide access to gov’t.
