"German language magazine 'Bild am Sonntag' reports that, in response to Obama's recent order to stop spying on Angela Merkel and other heads of 'friendly' states, the NSA has instead ramped up spying on everybody Merkel communicates with. Cory Doctorow points out that this action demonstrates that the NSA is out of control and deliberately disobeying a presidential order with a level of duplicity worthy of a four year-old."

I'm sorry, but no. Post Snowden, the president is the one in this equation that believes he still has some secrets he'd rather the NSA not disclose. Thus it will be the NSA telling him what to do, and not the other way around.

I think you misread my post. I said the situation was reversed...Obama doesn't tell the NSA what to do, the NSA tells Obama what to do.
Okay 3, 2, 1, let's jam.
