Quotation of the Day for November 20, 2014



"They would say this isn't your job, or you'd be told you don't have enough information to make those kinds of judgments. You'd basically be instructed not to worry about it.... This was when I really started seeing how easy it is to divorce power from accountability, and how the higher the levels of power, the less oversight and accountability there was."

- Edward Snowden, NSA whistleblower, quoted in Glenn Greenwald's book No Place to Hide: Edward Snowden, the NSA, and the US Surveillance State.
