Wanna play WoW all day? Join the NSA! ;)

Wow... (no pun intended), ah well.

I mean, reading that part:

[...]to find terrorists hiding within the games' virtual world[...]

I guess it's possible? How desperate would terrorists need to be to "hide within a game" such as World of WarCraft... can't they just use some private messagi- oh right there's nothing private on this planet anymore, almost forgot about that for a second.

A little potential problem with that, however. Have they thought about gamers whom happen to be role-playing? Sure, not all games are RP-friendly, lack of emotes, gathering places, poor/limited game lore, etc. But what about games that are friendly to and are known to harbor a thriving role-playing crowd? What about games with actual role-play-dedicated servers?

I can't imagine for the life of me some 'disguised' NSA agent in such games going around trying to figure out whose the potential terrorist between the guy who pretends to be a demi God talking robot with an army to invade Earth at any time or the guy (or gal) dressed like cat woman threatening the life of the game world's "authority" because she hates politicians and law enforcement officers.

I hope they don't end up sending their agents in Champions Online's Club Caprice because they'll have one heck of a hard time reading between the lines.

Let me explain to NSA.We play games for fun,enjoy, and get together also add to this that games are now become part of life so dont ruined it.

People play to enjoy games not to become or suspect terrorist.
 
I doubt half of what this snowden guy is saying is true, you can't verify the stuff he says, so everyone just takes it as truth? come on.

Companies are not going to allow this stuff to happen, at all.
