NSA statement does not deny 'spying' on members of Congress
I hope that 'the Merkel effect' will be significant here, in that it was not an issue until those with power were directly and obviously affected.<p>All too often it feels like 'the people' is a separate set to that of those in positions of executive power, with a bit of luck the smart wording of Bernie Sanders will ingratiate previously unbothered elements of the powers who can actually do something about stuff.<p>That said, I don't think 'spy on everyone, except the powerful' is a step up, if anything it's worse.
