Every human has ideas and opinions others disagree with. However, as Technical Director and later geopolitical world Technical Director of NSA with over 30 years of SIGINT service, literally no one is in a better position to know about NSA surveillance activities.
He was a middle manager decades ago. Literally most intelligence people are in a better position to know about NSA surveillance activities.

That doesn't in any way contradict what I said. Both technology and the law changed significantly since he was a middle manager in the NSA.
