Anyone Notice the sign in front of the data center on their website? It says “if you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear”

Love how their symbol is the “power” icon

"Arguing that you don't care about privacy because you have nothing to hide is like arguing that you don't care about free speech because you have nothing to say."

-Edward Snowden

I'm kinda a loner and a homebody; who needs freedom of assembly?

Also, there's so many religions to choose from! Can't the government help us narrow down the choices?

I'm tired of all these conflicting news reports. Sooo much info to dig through! I want my news cookie-cutter style and government approved.

I think guns are scary, so you shouldn't be allowed to have any

Wow, is that even real? that is one of the most chilling statements for obvious reasons. But imagine how many people around that facility would have to be ok with that message to let that sign fly. Utah is weird.

I found it on their website

I live within a couple of miles of the data center, and it's actually in a pretty isolated area, despite being on the edge of a fairly populated metro area. No one will see the sign that doesn't work at the data center. It's right next to a military base, and up away from the highway that runs nearby. It's easy to see the enormous buildings, but I'm pretty sure you can't even drive up near the building without going through security.

Here's the location on google maps: https://www.google.com/maps/@40.4297403,-111.9084778,6992m/data=!3m1!1e3

cool, thanks for the info.

Wow, is that even real?

"This is a parody of nsa.gov and has not been approved, endorsed, or authorized by the National Security Agency or by any other U.S. Government agency. Much of this content was derived from news media, privacy groups, and government websites. Links to these sites are posted on the left-sidebars of each page. "

yeah, once I saw the gov1.info you could tell it was bullshit.

As /u/tqfn pointed out, this is a satirical website

That looks so shopped.

Parody website, but pretty funny.

Under the Jobs page:

The men and women who work for the Domestic Surveillance Directorate are Americans first, last , and always. Each employee is required to take a solemn oath to support and defend the United States against all enemies, especially domestic.

at the end of the day they are also human.

corruption, temptation, psychopathy, sociopathy. lets hear the NSA say that there are none of those things in their ranks.

corruption integrates vertically into every human system until it reaches the top. NSA is not exempt from these facts.

Uh, you read where this is parody, right?

This is a parody site.

This is in bluffbdale, I'm about 20 to 30 minutes out, and pass it all the time. Across the street is a military base. There's a long road, about 2 to 300 yards leading up to the spy center, and there is a 24/7 police car that sits at the bottom so people can't just drive up to it. One time driving around with my buddy's family, we saw a guy speed past the cop to try to reach the top. Pretty funny. But yeah it's creepy. There was a big dispute going on a few years ago because the nsa building was using so much water getting pumped to it, it was causing a shortage for everyone nearby in Saratoga springs.
