NSA chief asks room full of hackers for help, heckler yells back "I don't trust you!" http://wapo.st/17mgW4g

Gen. Keith B. Alexander, director of the National Security Agency, stood in front of a standing-room-only crowd Wednesday, selling the idea of government surveillance programs.

His audience? More than 3,000 cybersecurity specialists, including some of the world’s best hackers, an unruly community known for its support of civil liberties and skepticism of the government’s three-letter agencies . . .

“We stand for freedom,” Alexander told the crowd in a vast ballroom at Caesars Palace. “Help us to defend the country and develop a better solution.”

Some in the crowd weren’t buying, and one hacker hurled an expletive back at him.

“I’m saying I don’t trust you!” a voice shouted.

6. We don't want to wait for the smoking gun in the form of a mushroom cloud. Meanwhile

for all the NSA and DHS 100's of billions spent only one terrorist incident in the USA "might have been" foiled. If this were a city policing matter the funds would be suspended immediately.
