gollark: Wikipedia notes misuse of *non-*mass surveillance in past. Spying on everyone and everything they do online will make it worse.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_surveillance_in_the_United_States
gollark: Oh, this too:- ignoring relevant laws and gathering data anyway until new laws can retroactively allow it- getting around limits on spying on citizens by sharing data with other "Five Eyes" nations and spying on them as foreigners
gollark: Well, it's pretty known that they do go around intercepting lots of stuff. There are many problems with this:- having private data like your internet traffic stored somewhere is kind of bad in itself.- if it's not abused yet it's basically only a matter of time.- there's no transparency anywhere and even a system of secret courts to judge things- it may help slightly to stop terrorists (no transparency so we can't check really) but is just a massive breach of privacy
gollark: GNU+Windows?
gollark: We'll see who's a fool when I backtrace your IP with Visual Basic!
