The XKeyscore program allows the NSA to run queries of virtually almost anything you do online. Facebook chats, IP addresses, email addresses, browsing histories, etc. are all fair game.

All they need is one little piece of information like an email address, IP address, etc. The NSA can even see you that you read this article.
