On Tuesday, National Security Agency whistleblower William Binney compared the US surveillance program to Nazi Germany.

Binney was once a high-ranking official within the agency, having worked for them for three decades. In 2002, along with two others, he demanded that the US Department of Defense investigate the NSA for wasting "millions and millions of dollars" on a program called "Trailblazer," which was designed to analyze data on the internet.

He has also been openly critical about the domestic surveillance program which was brought to light by Edward Snowden.

"They [the NSA] don't care what they do, they feel that they have the right to do anything that they feel necessary, and they will cover up crimes and procedures and violations of regulations that they've done to achieve whatever their ends are," Binney told Loud & Clear host Brian Becker on Radio Sputnik.

Binney had created a software program called ThinThread that would monitor terror suspects, while safeguarding the privacy of Americans. He alleges that the agency took his software and corrupted it, violating the Constitution.

"They used our software and corrupted it and turned it against the people of the United States," he stated. "That was fundamentally a violation of the First, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendments of the Constitution. So they were scrapping the Constitution, they were doing this all in secret."
