At yesterday‘s Senate Intelligence Committee hearing on FISA legislation, Sen. Mark Udall (D-Colo.) asked NSA director, Gen. Keith Alexander, whether his spy agency should be collecting all Americans‘ phone records. Gen. Alexander, in a shockingly forthcoming response, admitted that he „believe[s] it is in the nation‘s best interest to put all the phone records into a lockbox that we can search when the nation needs it.“ He also explained that „there is no upper limit“ to the number of Americans‘ phone records that the NSA can collect.
