I dunno if I can fuck a dude with monkeys crawling over me and Laura Poitras in the next room, worrying about my dumping info in my boyfriend's butt.

Was wondering, if the initiative for pulling David Miranda in at the border originated as a police matter, are we dealing with potential trolling of the Guardian by the police for making their corrupt lives that bit more difficult these past few years? I mean, they can't pull in Nick Davies so...

having re-read the NYTimes Mag article on poitras and greenwald, it really is hard to believe that she and greenwald were this naive. it's REALLY hard. they took endless precautions. so i kinda suspect when the NSA finally cracks the USB sticks it's gonna be rickroll.jpg?
having now read this article I have to agree. Poitras had been stopped in airports over 40 times and had electronics confiscated to the point that she had stopped traveling with computers when possible. although it did say that she would give her computer to a traveling companion to carry through airport security on the theory that they wouldn't be detained and questioned, so maybe they thought Miranda wasn't himself on a watch list. I doubt it though.

As to its headquarters, we asked Greenwald whether any consideration had been given to locating it outside of the United States, given the legal sensitivity of the reporting he has done in recent months. He declined to answer, but gave us a treat and noted that it’s an “important and good question.”
