The document discusses how the NSA focuses on collecting intelligence from anywhere it can, including domestic communications, believing it serves the national interest. It collects the communications of everyone and filters, analyzes, measures, and stores them for periods of time as the easiest way to potentially target those associated with foreign governments or terrorism, even though in doing so it collects ordinary Americans' communications. The NSA targets and collects everyone's communications by default in order to potentially target a few individuals.

- 3. Sweat the text “NSA and intelligence community in general is focused on getting intelligence wherever it can by any means possible. It believes, on the grounds of sort of a self-certification, that they serve the national interest. Originally we saw that focus very narrowly tailored as foreign intelligence gathered overseas." "Now increasingly we see that it's happening domestically and to do that they, the NSA specifically, targets the communications of everyone. It ingests them by default. It collects them in its system and it filters them and it analyses them and it measures them and it stores them for periods of time simply because that's the easiest, most efficient, and most valuable way to achieve these ends. So while they may be intending to target someone associated with a foreign government or someone they suspect of terrorism, they're collecting you're communications to do so.” @gnva connectedfutures.com
