NSA BLIMP SPIED IN THE UNITED STATES

More Hype?

TO RESIDENTS OF MARYLAND, catching an occasional glimpse of a huge white blimp floating in the sky is not unusual. For more than a decade, the military has used the state as a proving ground for new airships destined for Afghanistan or Iraq. But less known is that the test flights have sometimes served a more secretive purpose involving National Security Agency surveillance.

FFS... That article is so full of conjecture and assumptions, that are based off of what is used in an area where gathering intelligence information is required. Just because you own firearms, doesn't mean you bought them from the trunk of some dude in Baltimore. That article is more full of it than I am.

FISA Section 702. Learn it, know it, love it.

Also, testing of these kinds of devices are not done in CONUS, unless it is in a secure military installation or the RFDZ in WV. They sure as hell are not tested out in the public eye like the article is alluding to.

Patuxent Naval Air Station in Lexington Park, MD (the "air station near Solomon's Island" in the article) has been testing aircraft since 1943. including the current V-22 and F-35. Oh gosh yes, they do it right in the public's eye.

So you are comparing the T&E of military aircraft to the T&E of a surveillance system? Neither the military aircraft or the surveillance system have anything in common, in regards to T&E. It is people that vilify the NSA at every chance they get that make it into the scary boogyman that it isn't. Take your strawman argument somewhere else.

This is even worse than the stupid Comey thread that seems to have taken a life of its own... FISA 702

I saw that alluded to somewhere else a few months ago.
