#2Between at least 80% and 100% lies the possibility, that this figure is even closer to 100% than anyone would love to admit...

#6"At least 80% of fibre-optic cables globally go via the US. This is no accident and allows the US to view all communication coming in. At least 80% of all audio calls, not just metadata, are recorded and stored in the US. The NSA lies about what it stores."
I think he meant that the NSA had access to the 80% of calls that are routed through the US, not the the NSA is recording and storing literally every single one of them. I think he was misquoted or misspoke.
William Binney hasn't worked for the NSA since 2001. Were they recording all calls back then? Did someone still there leak new information to him?

"At least 80% of all audio calls, not just metadata, are recorded and stored in the US."
It definitely seems like he meant that 80% of calls are recorded and stored. Whether that's true or not will (hopefully) come out in time.

The NSA is recording every call in the Bahamas and Afghanistan. They can listen to any call made in the last 30 days. (Edit: Only cell phone calls, but still.) It's possible that a similar rolling-window system is in place for calls going through the USA.
