  This is PROOF, spies are incurable wankers and James Bond was a lame attempt at putting a sense of masculinity to it. James Bond FAIL

Documents leaked by the former National Security Agency (NSA) contractor Edward Snowden reveal that the agency set up a database, known as Dishfire, which snared hundreds of millions of messages as they were sent between countries.

A slide from a presentation, seen by The Guardian and Channel 4 News, shows how Dishfire gave spies access to a trove of information. For example, by intercepting the welcome messages phone users receive when they arrive in a new country, the NSA tracked the movements of more than 1.5 million people every.... The agency spied on phone users' contacts by hoovering up five million missed call alerts per day, as well as business cards sent by text message.

The agency was even able to work out phone users' credit card numbers using texts sent to their phones by banks.

Dishfire collects pretty much everything it can. Leaked documents
