Bill Binney - NSA spying benefits the FBI

“NSA collection of data via domestic spying programs is the typical way the FBI would do entrapment methods- using that illegally collected data they would try to entrap people by pretending to be people they weren’t and soliciting things. That’s fundamentally how most of the cases they say they stopped have been stopped. Not by the spying programs but data collected on people they then solicited to do terrorism are the people they have stopped. NSA meta data collection has given the FBI a treasure trove to look at for persecution or arresting anyone they want - that’s the big user of it and those are the people that aren’t even monitored by the courts as to how they are using this data - the real problem is the FBI, DEA, DHS and IRS.” Bill Binney 2015
