"On a positive note, time to move to africa and live like an aborigine!"

This statement, if made by a person intending its ignorance, demonstrates how the NSA has gotten away with their activities for so long.


I personally lay the entirety of the blame on the populous of the citizens of the US and the UK, whom were so bloody oblivious as to trust a government. ANY government.

Look back at history: Egypt, Babylon, Greece, Rome, China, Japan, Germany, England, France, and Spain all have experienced the suffocation of an iron-fisted government. The oppression was obvious and felt by all except the ruling class. What we see today in the world's most powerful countries is not so obvious... The US and the UK all are being oppressed by a "water-fist" rather than iron. The water flows in around you and seems comforting at first, but before long you are drowning with little chance to escape. With government evolving in such a way, isn't it time we become better swimmers?

I recommend that if anyone wants to know if the USA government is spying on their computer, keep naked baby pictures of yourself on your computer and then when the SWAT team smashes into your home from all sides and asks you why you have child-porn on your computer, just tell them they are pictures of you and they will have to let you go, but then you'll know they were snooping in your computer.

@skuds too late. The NSA already has the keys. The magical swordfish hackers don't worry me compared to the murika/UK Inquisition

These DATA gathering sites either NSA or GCHQ. Are most probably infiltrated by the Worlds Spies. As Snowden has shown.. They collect our DATA and then any one in their organisation has access to it. This is the greatest threat to Freedom and businesses around the World,, These organisations are spying on us then who? Is then getting the DATA.

NSA is akin to the lion in the jungle. No rules or societal consideration needed. Justice of NSA means justification of it needs and wants. A human is just like a walnut that the NSA can at anytime crack open. Your privacy, your rights, and your life has no value any more; as if the devil-NSA has bought your soul.
