I should have figured something like this was happening when our internet was cut off for using torrents, but on this magnitude? Holy shit this is going to be a big one.

I'd rather trust the programmer when he says it is doing more harm than good than trust the president when he says we need to balance privacy for security.

I've been following this on Ars Technica for the past few days, and it really is sickening. But it's nice to know that this program has been ousted into the public eye, and that people who claim that the NSA is monitoring all communications won't be branded as tinfoil hat-wearing loonies.

What makes you think they won't be branded that?

It's one thing to know what's going on. It's quite another for people to actually believe you.

Also, most people are quite complacent and ignorant, and wish to remain that way.
