While some server sites are known NSA-Echelon (http://cryptome.org/echelon.htm) spy stations of the Five-Eyes -- US, UK, CA, AU and NZ -- many of the server sites are shown at, or near, national capitals. These may be symbolic locations or, intriguingly, may indicate X-Keyscore servers at US embassies.
A surprise is the dot at Moscow. Another is a site shown in south-central China, far from Beijing, located nowhere obvious (a long-shot: it's a covert server).
The NSA station in Hawaii where Edward Snowden worked is not shown on the map.
There are about 85 red dots on the site map which claims "approximately 150 sites," with 25 of the dots along the Antarctica coast.
Dots appear to be shown in 51 countries, plus seemingly circumscribed Anarctica. The densest concentration is in Europe, Middle East, South Asia, Central America. But none shown in top of the world, CA, NO, SW, IS, PT, most of South America, the Pacific and Atlantic islands, a slew of others.

My country is in the list, holy fuck? hold on for a second. Isn't the NSA's main objective is to keep the USA safe from any internal threats?

NSA works jointly with ICE if I'm not mistaken. ICE is the private investigations division of Homeland Security if you didn't know, they deal with illegal immigration and such.
Moved.
EDIT: Also, here's this (http://cryptome.org/2013/07/nsa-xkeyscore.pdf)
Well my country is listed here and its server is near the country's capital. What my government says is that "America isn't spying, he is taking care of the cyber world by watching illegal activities of mischievous elements and we support that. ", WTF!! If I had a gun, I would have killed all the politicians of my country those who say it is right what USA is doing.Yes God bless russia.
Do you think Russia has done a good job by saving Snowden for 1 year and not handing over him to USA?
Yes God bless russia.If I were the PM of my country, I would have kept Snowden in my country as long as he wanted but my govt is coward.
Arresting someone for telling the truth and than charge him with "helping the enemy"!
Go USA!
While going through the presentation, I always encounter this phrase written in red "No strong-selector". What the hell is this suppose to mean? Anyone knows or at least can guess the meaning of it.
XKeyscore can determine your location by doing reverse searches. Did you write a document mentioning a certain name? Did you search for a term on the BBC’s site, or look at a town on Google Earth? XKeyscore can deliver up your e-mail address -- an example of what it calls a “strong selector.” “How do I find a cell of terrorists that has no connection to known strong-selectors?” A slide asks.
