   Apparently NCTC now has the authority to aggregate databases of
   information on US citizens and keep it for five years.  In the event of
   reasonable suspicion NCTC can keep the data forever.  Even better, they
   can share aggregated information with foreign governments.

   ...who also mentioned the ex-NCTC Director now works at Palantir.
