[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5279364, member: 24302"] Or, could be those laws were implemented to catch terrorist plots being hatched before they happen. If the government is overstepping their bounds and violating privacy laws then we need to deal with it in the courts. But it seems with many everything the government does has nefarious motives. If we aren't willing to accept a certain amount of vigilance on the government's part to keep us safe then walk away from computers and cellphones. Go low tech offgrid. Because if one chooses to participate in any way with modern communications one has to accept that government algorithms are looking for anything that might hurt us or the government. It's supposed to be vigilant against all enemies foreign and domestic. And if it ever misses another 9/11 type attack I'll be one of the first to question why considering all they have at their disposal. [/QUOTE]
