An unnamed U.S. government official ominously told journalists in 2011 that the U.S. would not subpoena reporters because &ldquo;We know who you're talking to.&rdquo; Sometimes journalists' phone call records are subpoenaed to find this out, but Snowden has shown us that in effect they subpoena all the phone call records of everyone in the U.S., all the time, from Verizon and from other companies too.
