Pretty sure they all knew what was going on already, years ago.

The fact that the US Govt spies on everyone is not really a secret to most people who know how both the internet and govt works.

This ^

One should always assume that everything is recorded when using third party services (internet, phone, skype) even if they say they don't. I'm now even thinking that modern day gadgets with cameras and microphones can be turned into a spying device on demand (even when you don't use them) not to say about upcoming Xbox with Kinnect. I bet it's funny always being watched Smiley

On the other hand we are moving towards open society without secrets and the recent leaks only support the point. So privacy will be a privilege of some really smart people willing to put additional effort to achieve it (unless of course all the hardware designs and software protocols suddenly become open source and everybody understands exactly how they work). It's good when you don't have anything to hide Smiley

I think not going was more about plausible deniability when elections roll around than whether they actually wanted to hear about it or already knew.

Oh no, the liars and scumbags missed the Liar and Scumbag meeting

Do you really trust anyone in office anymore? I don't. Our government was hijacked by finacial fascists long ago

You don't have to attend briefings to follow orders during a vote. Sad they are not following the orders of their constituents.

Add: They were at the NSA monitoring the NSA's real-time data showing which of their constituents were monitoring the briefing.
Add: Puppet master told them not to attend.

Sam Spade: We were talking about a lot more money than this.
Kasper Gutman: Yes, sir, we were, but this is genuine coin of the realm. With a dollar of this, you can buy ten dollars of talk.
