Spy agency NSA triples collection of U.S. phone records: official report. WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. National Security Agency collected 534 million records of phone calls and text messages of Americans last year, more than triple gathered in 2016, a U.S. intelligence agency report released on Friday said.

Also according to The Guardian’s Glenn Greenwald even low-level NSA analysts are allowed to search and listen to the communications of Americans and other people without court approval and supervision.

Getting hired by the NSA without a degree is virtually impossible. Of course, just any degree won’t work; it needs to be in an area that is relevant to what the agency does. As an intelligence organization, the NSA hires people with many backgrounds and credentials.
