O pokrętnej logice => "It was fairly amazing in the wake of the initial leaks on NSA surveillance efforts that we saw folks in DC — including many in the press — try to claim that it was (a) no big deal and (b) everyone knew it was going on anyway. Soon after this came out, Steve Worona pointed out that many of the arguments appeared to be the equivalent of alternative pleading, in which people (normally) lawyers try to plead things that are clearly contradictory. In this case, Worona noted the alternative pleading went this way, demonstrating the ridiculousness of the attempted “defense” of the program: There is no massive secret NSA surveillance program. And everyone has known all about it for years; it’s no big deal. And revealing it would be a major threat to national security." techdirt/articles/20130628/12191623662/why-yes-we-have-learned-lot-about-nsas-surveillance-programs.shtml
