William Binney: NSA Could Have Prevented 9/11

Before Edward Snowden, There Was William Binney.

On today's special episode of Loud & Clear, Brian Becker interviews National Security Agency whistleblower William Binney. Before the earth shaking revelations by figures such as Chelsey Manning and Edward Snowden, there were NSA agents turned critics such as Binney. We ask Binney what led to his decision to leave the NSA less than two months after 9/11, how he views recent changes to the bulk collection of citizens' data, if terror attacks could have been thwarted, and why the spying apparatus in the U.S continues to grow.
