A massive report from The Washington Post this weekend delves into tens of thousands of communications and documents collected by the NSAs wide-reaching surveillance programs. According to the Post, a large portion are US citizens or residents, with almost half of all communications containing information that the NSA connected to Americans. The latest revelations come from a months-long analysis by the Post of a store of communications and files, known as FISA documents, collected by the NSA from 2009 to 2012 under such programs as PRISM and Upstream. The intercepted communications were provided by security contractor Edward Snowden.
