I hope DM reporter showed why metadata collection is basically just as bad as having the content itself, and why Prism was so intrusive.
Like if you're DMing an adult actress, you don't really need to see the content of those DMs to know what's going on.
Now picture all the metadata for every call, email, anything... all being collected on you and every citizen.
That's what Snowden revealed the government is doing.
And basically nobody cares.
Maybe I want to invite the adult actress to see my etchings collection.
Press x to doubt
I care, but you’re right that most people don’t even know who Snowden is, let alone what he revealed at great personal cost.
Part of the problem as I see it is that it's not exactly easy to protect yourself from prying eyes
Guys, guys. You have to understand. Your government is PROTECTING YOU. They are only monitoring so they can find the "baddies" and keep civilized society SAFE. If they didn't do this vital work, how would it possibly be safe to send our children to school?!
