A Good American (2015)

A fascinating and deeply revealing documentary about William Binney and colleagues who resigned from the NSA over the agency's practice of recording every single communication from every American (Email or phone call) during the Obama administration. They used a dangerous program called "Trailblazer" which did not exclude innocent Americans from its net. The program was inferior to the "ThinThread" program co-invented by Binney, which was far more specific.

It was this group's whistleblowing and other actions that compelled Edward Snowden to start his own lengthy whistleblowing activities.

William Binney was the most brilliant analyst and a senior intelligence official at the NSA. His revelations are staggering in their honesty and integrity.
