“Exactly,” responded Alexander. “We stand for freedom.”
“Bullshit!” McCoy shouted.
“Not bad,” Alexander said, as applause broke out in the crowd.

“Read the constitution!” shouted McCoy in one last heckle.
“I have. So should you,” responded Alexander to another round of applause.

They were applauding McCoy, not the NSA director there begging them for forgiveness for some reason.

You expected a bunch of people who happily and routinely violate the security and privacy of hundreds of thousands of people for personal gain (and sometimes just bragging rights) to be outraged at an organization that does the exact same thing at a larger scale?

“We get all these allegations of what [NSA staff] could be doing,” Alexander added. “But when people check what the NSA is doing, they’ve found zero times that’s happened. And that’s no bullshit. Those are the facts.” The crowd responded to that line with loud applause, as Alexander asked the press not to quote his swearing, noting his 15 grandchildren.
Should have declared it a state secret General.
Admission to Blackhat is like $1500. You're looking at $3K with all expenses just to go. Of course it only attracts assholes who work for large companies with an attitude that `privacy is dead'. Who else is going to pay for that in a mostly-worthless conference?

It can't have been full of NSA agents. Because of the sequester, Obama decided to save money by severely limiting (to the point of almost blocking), travel and professional expenses of federal employees.
Alexander’s talk focused on the oversight placed on the NSA by Congress and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, which must approve the NSA’s surveillance in any case where it might target Americans.
Sure, but what about the rest of the world..? It's not even your fucking jurisdiction

A spy agency... spying! Imagine that! Get over it Euroshit, we're just better at it and if your petty little leaders cry about it, it's because they're jealous. Also, all the important countries cooperate and share it, and the rest deserve it.

X-Keyscore is run out of Australia and New Zealand and are operated jointly with their Defence Signals Directorate and Government Communications Security Bureau, respectively.
