Alexander, the most powerful man in surveillance, has been under scrutiny since former NSA contractor Edward Snowden leaked concrete evidence that the NSA has been running a domestic spying apparatus of questionable effectiveness that for years has benefitted from weak oversight and misdirection to harvest data.

Is that like the Ministry of Magic or something?
