What's wild to me is that when talking with friends about this, they think these actions are okay. They often reply with "I don't do anything wrong, so if it helps the government stop a terrorist attack, then I'm okay with it." I don't know how to get them to see the problems with this.

I guess the problem is they don't think it will happen to them. When it does it's too late.
I imagine the Canadian truckers didn't think they would have their bank accounts frozen but it did happen.
Useful idiots and lemmings. It is a very frustrating conversation, I think it's just learned helplessness and Stockholm syndrome.
My experience as well. This is so far off everyone's radar that I see on a day to day basis. Its exhausting and depressing at times.
Heard that before
Some day when its too late theyll realize that,
"why do you need privacy if you have nothing to hide?" Actually translates to
"Why do you need dignity if you have nothing to hide?"
The founding fathers were British terrorists. Too many people forget this.
