As President Obama was laying out his „plan“ in response to the public‘s concerns over NSA spying, both the DOJ and the NSA released some documents defending the various programs. I would imagine it will surprise none of you that these documents are chock full of hilarious and misleading claims.

We‘ll get to the DOJ one in another post.
