    at last, or so it seems.

    "Alexander’s statement about monitoring civilian networks comes a month after the Washington Post reported that the NSA had pushed repeatedly over the past year to expand its role in protecting private-sector networks, but had been rebuffed by the White House because the administration felt the NSA’s proposal would “permit unprecedented government monitoring of routine civilian Internet activity.”

    The whole thing is interesting. Nuanced article, hopefully not just pre-spin.
