"...vacuuming up confidential data."

...again with public figures opening their gob and letting rip about something they don't know the first thing about.

how is this different from bresnan's packet sniffing?

I guess I just got my answer. Google was retaining it's data it collected whereas we don't really know for sure if bresnan retains what it sniffs or if it just replaces strings. example would be when you do a search from the address bar and bresnan replaces your query to google with a query to their ad sponsored self with loaded results. What is to stop bresnan from replacing other strings such as "obama" with "foreign pretender"??
