More GG bullshit. There are almost 7B people on earth. And Mr. Hyperbole thinks the NSA can actually “monitor” even “hundreds of millions”? Does he even know the meaning of “monitor”? They know what they’re looking for, you twit, and it’s not your dialing-for-dollars calls.

Hyperbole watch. He wants people to think that the US government is watching them. Not distinguishing between US citizens (for who warrants are required) and those that the NSA would actually want to watch out for.

Let’s also ignore that military forces around the world are on the NSA radar - that involves millions of people and interactions on a daily basis.

And the NSA mandate is to watch out for threats to the US from foreign sources. So, he’s trying to conflate all kinds of issues along with an unhealthy dose of paranoia.
