NSA was revealed to be spying on us in 2007

Im watching The Bourne Ultimatum and I got to a part where they are tracking a British Journalist and mentioned the NSA needs all the information on the guy. This as far as im concerned matches the "Osama is in Pakistan" remark made in Scrubs in how the producers seemed to tell the future before we the public found out. After all the NSA has been confirmed to be spying in Europe and South America and on the American people and the source in the film was from London CIA sent to New York and to the NSA. What do you think? How many things in films have turned out to be true?

  • You're in denial if you don't think the governments been collecting data on us since the PATRIOT Act was enacted after 9/11.

    • I love how the whole world can agree that the NSA can go -blam!- themselves. I mean, we [i]all[/i] hate them. It's awesome, in a strange way. OT: The NSA has been doing semi-veiled surveillance for a [i]long[/i] time, it's just that PRISM was the first time it got the scrutiny it needed. Spy novels have been referencing them for [i]years[/i] (Tom Clancy novels, anyone?).

          Um...read this and notice the date it was published. http://www.nytimes.com/2005/12/16/politics/16program.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0 [i]Months after the Sept. 11 attacks, President Bush secretly authorized the National Security Agency to eavesdrop on Americans and others inside the United States to search for evidence of terrorist activity without the court-approved warrants ordinarily required for domestic spying, according to government officials.

          • Reminds me of that secret message in Fallout 3 saying that the Queen will die in 2014 or 2015 (I can't remember). Probably just an estimate.
