"Challenge it, speak out, engage in a constructive act of protest"

How do you do this when secret courts can keep you silenced?

Especially considering that the NSA has proven itself willing to tell bold-faced lies directly to congress? I mean, how do you whistleblow about that kind of thing without stealing classified information and releasing it publicly?

This whitehouse response is a cruel joke.

Agreed. And, of course the NSA only uses "lawful tools." Nope, never are they found unconstitutional.

The same way William Binney did. He did things responsibly through the proper channels. The public didn't give a shit. The government wishes Snowden would have followed his example.
