Wow, 546 people. Now make that number over 100 million and see how plausible it is to obtain such personal information about all those people.
EDIT: Well, not necessarily obtain, but have people actually observe and analyze this information.

You're right, it would be even easier.
-
How? I don't think the NSA has the time or resources to analyze all that data.
-
You'd be surprised at what's possible, and it's not like they have people combing through this enormous amount of data they're collecting. For the most part it will be computerised.
-
It's completely computerized. That's what I don't get; what issue do people take with this data being stored in a supercomputer, likely never to be seen by human eyes? It's not like the computer has a consciousness; if the data's never used, it's like it's not even there. Do you just not trust that they would use it responsibly?

Well, yeah. I meant the gathering and storing of the data.

I should have expected that. I won't pretend like physical hacking doesn't occur, but that's a sort of different topic altogether. Anyway, can you say why you have a problem with data being stored in a supercomputer even though it likely will never be seen? Or do you think they will overstep their bounds, and the average person's information will likely be seen (I don't think this is plausible, but that's just my opinion)?
