NSA Whistleblowers Reveal Extent of Eavesdropping 222
ma11achy was one of several readers to write about claims made by two former military intercept operators who worked for the NSA that "Despite pledges by President George W. Bush and American intelligence officials to the contrary, hundreds of US citizens overseas have been eavesdropped on as they called friends and family back home." Ars Technica has a brief report as well, and reader net_shaman adds a link to Glenn Greenwald's opinion piece on the eavesdropping at Salon.

So, if we're in a foreign military operations theater, we should start our call with, "I'm an American citizen calling my girlfriend. Get the fuck off the line you pervert." ?
I've never been in a foreign military operations theater, what kind of shows do they have? Is it mostly war movies? John Wayne and Arnold?

I can understand your dislike of firearms, but whomever said "the pen is mightier than the sword" didn't have two in the chest and one in the head.
Two pens in the chest and a third in the head? Sounds fatal enough to me.
