The NSA is becoming a real threat to American Internet companies. This is concerning.

With the billions in tax breaks and subsidies, I have problems believing there is actually any coercion between the NSA and the biggie tech companies. So I don't see the NSA as a threat to those or any other American internet companies, but rather to everyone else. The NSA are monsters.

How are they a threat? They comply with the NSL and operate as normal, plus the kickbacks that come with a strengthened relationship with the intelligence apparatus.
