Defenders of the National Security Agency’s surveillance of almost everyone in America say that the program is necessary because it is effective. The agency claims that PRISM and other programs have broken up dozens of terrorist attacks on Americans. They won’t say which alleged plots – except one, a 2009 planned attack on the New York City subway system, that turned out actually to have been disrupted by police at Scotland Yard. And the massive government snooping apparatus was useless against the Boston bombers, amateur terrorists who nevertheless had come up on the radar screens of two foreign intelligence agencies that tried to warn us. But that’s just an inconvenient truth.
