  Well, no because the story is so obviously fake on its face that no one but the most credulous of suckers could fall for it.

    The only thing that makes this obviously fake is that it claims she downloaded them from people's phones, rather than from some centralized NSA data store... And the idea an NSA employee would be held accountable publicly and cause bad PR.

    It’s pretty well known that government databases getting abused for personal motives is actually pretty common.

    AP did a report on this and while public records of this are limited, they still found about 300 cases of database abuse from 2013 through 2015.

      John Oliver even did a thing on this, people don’t care about “metadata”, but ask them if they should be able to see your dick pics and people care a lot more

      Well, apparently they’re seeing your dick pics

      It’s made headlines at least twice before, it’s nothing new. That said, I think this was written in jest.

        It's not just written in jest, it's totally made up

  I mean, it’s been well known that the NSA has been intercepting and logging all domestic internet and other telecommunication traffic for like a decade now.
