We may be talking about two different things, and/or you may have a program that blocks ads. There is a long "banner" for CoinTalk that is omnipresent. Next to the banner are the ads, at least on my computers (I've used several over the years). The last two ads I had were an ad for an online course (I got that on the homepage here, as I came online) and an ad for Cesar's dog food. Neither one had any bikinis in them, dammit. So, it may be that our programs are different, or maybe something to do with different state laws. By that I mean your state may not allow them? If anything though, if you're not seeing any ads, I'd say you have a stricter firewall on your computer. Your settings are probably blocking ad content. I used to do that way back, but my computers are old and the blocking caused system errors over time...or viruses killed them...or both lol...Either way, my firewall allows them, where your's probably isn't. I bet all my previous posts were confusing as hell though, given that you're not getting ads. "This guy sounds paranoid!" "He's a conspiracy nut!" ....both of which are still uncertain.
I smell chit. All right, who allowed chit into the room? Pete, was it you? Look, I've worked as a janitor for years, but I've moved on from that job. Someone open a window, it smells like republican in here.
Don't be too certain about that: View attachment 1756 http://news.cnet.com/8301-13578_3-5...-flap-extends-to-contents-of-u.s-phone-calls/
If you don't believe C/net then look it up yourself. Are you back to relying on your "attack the messenger" tactics?

... and here. It's not just C/net reporting this. Read the last paragraph. View attachment 1759 http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.co...sa-is-not-listening-to-americans-phone-calls/
He said that they were "capable" of listening to phone calls. Of course they are. So what. They aren't saying that they are actively doing so.
Nadler was told that the contents of a phone call could be accessed "simply based on an analyst deciding that". Now, please tell us when such a scenario wouldn't be a violation of our Fourth Amendment. Do you want your phone calls accessed without a warrant? Of course, you don't mind as long as Obama is president.
Oh, I forgot that you think the Constitution is just an old rag. But, you don't really want some anonymous analyst having the authority to access your phone calls, do you? At his or her own discretion? Without a warrant?
If the law is broken, prosecute, otherwise merely having the ability to break the law isn't a crime. You can't seem to accept that.
republicans love to crow about violations of the constitution...unless they themselves are the ones violating it. Republicans: *I could go on and on and on, citing example after example after example of republicans ignoring the constitution ...when it suits them to do so. Hypocrites will ignore the points above, of course, and continue to post asinine, I mean "ass-inine" comments. It's what they do best. I'm getting pretty good at them myself now...republicans are wearing off on me at an alarming rate. For example: I feel my penis shrinking as I write this.

Ohhhhh, what the heck, let's look at a few real examples of republicans violating the constitution: I may have to continue this later. I have a sudden urge to drop a deuce. That's what happens when I research what republicans think. I mean, I love being able to "put myself into other people's shoes" so-to-speak, so that I can have a broad understanding of the issues, but sometimes I just go too deep. (sniffs) Man, I hope that was just gas. I don't want skid-marks on me undies. (sees De Orc) OK, I'll stop! ...eventually.

I'm guessing Snowden was referring to emails when he said he could access anyone's communications. But yeah...phones can be too, but are much more difficult, I imagine, since they are audio files or transcripts of audio files. Either way, emails are the likely source of his boasting.
Coin you did read my post regarding the CCTV? and my comment on there been no foolproof method of stopping a bombing didnt you? I am a bit unsure as your response more or less said what I had just stated. As the 7/7 bombing was in 2005 and since then we have not had another but a couple have been foiled due to inteligence gathering
