Are There 10,000 Potential Terrorists on Facebook?

11 years ago

That’s how many requests Facebook for customer data Facebook says it got from the NSA.

Could there really be 10,000 potential terrorists on Facebook? If so, maybe the the solution is to shut down that nest of vipers.

Seriously, sounds like Obama’s NSA is interested in stuff other than terrorism. Occupy movement, anyone?

10,000? Well, define “terrorist”. Out of the billion FB users I’d say there’s well over 10,000 people that are fed the fuck up with the state of things, probably a million or so. If anything I bet the number of requests quoted is understated.
