They have computers that sift through the data and voice comms, they're only looking for key words anyway. Next time I make a phone call I must remember to say hi to William Hague and to GHCQ as the first words and see if I get a free taxi ride
The US will go ahead with high-level talks with Russia on Friday despite Moscow's decision to grant asylum to ex-US intelligence analyst Edward Snowden, US officials say.
Some members of Mr Snowden's family are applying for visas to visit him in Russia, his lawyer says.
Mr Snowden was granted asylum by Russia despite repeated requests from the US that he be returned to America.
He leaked details about a secret data-gathering programme.
means your first on their list meaty .. when it come to the knock at the door , if they are monitoring DK ... then they'll all agree you talk in code ... (shite code) but code nevertheless
Basically it means that if the US wants you for anything, even a parking ticket, you'll be sent there by any country you go to or through. No escape from the US even with their very questionable warrants and laws. Luckily I'm not going back there for a while now I've written that
Putin is a sneaky pillock at the best of times, if I were Ed I'd be looking for a direct flight east to Latin America (over no US 'friendly' nations) before he gets handed over in some deal or other.

An Irish friend of mine sent his mate a joke message via facebook with several key words in
,a few days later he had a message from facebook saying that some one in a town in usa had
tried to access his account a few days after ,both he and his mate had to take there computer
to be repaired because they would not boot up
Easy done, Gary Glitter took his in for repair, bet he wished he'd never been in that gang, sick bassed.
But seriously I hope Ed manages to get out of Russia onto a direct flight to Latin America, it seems just about every other country is more than willing to hand him over to the US for him telling everyone what they already suspected - that their government intercepts data from everywhere it can. Odd that it's all gone quiet about GCHQ using the data supplied by prism.
UK security services did not break the law in accessing personal data through the US Prism programme, a parliamentary committee has said.
It had been alleged that data-gathering centre GCHQ circumvented the law to gain information on UK citizens.
The Intelligence and Security Committee (ISC) reviewed the GCHQ reports produced with US intelligence.
The ISC said the evidence showed that any intelligence sought had "conformed with GCHQ's statutory duties".
While the committee found that GCHQ had acted within the law, it expressed concern that legal frameworks in some areas were expressed in "general terms".
"More detailed policies and procedures have, rightly, been put in place around this work by GCHQ", in order to comply with the Human Rights Act, it said.
The next step for the ISC was to further examine the "complex interaction" between the Intelligence Services Act, the Human Rights Act and the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act, and the policies and procedures that underpin them.
Foreign Secretary William Hague welcomed the committee's findings. He said: "I see daily evidence of the integrity and high standards of the men and women of GCHQ. The ISC's findings are further testament to their professionalism and values.
"It will continue to have the full co-operation of the government and the security and intelligence agencies."
So a bunch of MP's found that GCHQ didn't break the law...... I could have told them the outcome the minute they said they'd look, and they already knew the findings before they started I dare say. Smug little bassed wants a slapping and to be sent to bed without dinner. tw@
If that were another government been caught intercepting US data there'd be sh*t on, but because it's the US the world ignores it and sweeps it away. The truth isn't always convenient....
