NSA Declassifies Memo About Failed TRAILBLAZER Project 15
decora writes "Ellen Nakashima of the Washington Post reports that the NSA has just declassified one of the 5 documents NSA whistleblower Thomas Andrews Drake was charged under the Espionage Act for retaining in his basement. The document, which Drake previously faced years in prison for possessing, is essentially a cheerleading memo, complimenting the Trailblazer project team for a great presentation and demo. It stands in stark contrast to numerous other reports that described the NSA IT project as an overbudget, ineffective, billion dollar seven year boondoggle."
Bad Summary (Score:2, Informative)
The linked memo is very clearly about TURBULENCE, not TRAILBLAZER. Do Slashdot's editors even read what they post anymore?
Wrong program (Score:3, Informative)
That memo is about Turbulence not Trailblazer. Do some research and you'll find that they're very different (in fact, pretty much opposite).
