Whatever your position, this piece is a must-read. The author is Jim
Bamford, a former naval intelligence analyst who's written three
impressive books on the NSA (The Puzzle Palace, Body of Secrets,
and The Shadow Factory).
Beyond the political and social implications, it's just interesting to
think about how to cope with yottabytes of data.

You can hear Bamford on C-Span, discussing his books, in panel
discussions, and testifying to Congress.
