Basaaly Moalin: The One "Terrorist" Caught by Section 215 Surveillance
Remember back in 2013 when the then-director of the NSA Keith Alexander claimed that Section 215 bulk telephone metadata surveillance stopped “fifty-four different terrorist-related activities”? Remember when that number was backtracked several times, until all that was left was a single Somali taxi driver who was convicted of sending some money back home? This is the story of Basaaly Moalin.

TOO. FRIGGIN. LONG.
Is there a summary that doesn’t require me to read a whole book about it?
The story seems interesting, but I simply do not have the time 🙁
