These are all true statements. Greetings from Seattle, Washington, USA! No need to cc them on this post. No one should kid themselves with what NSA is working on. No one should also kid themselves with what they aren't capable of.



after 10 years~ of lurking, your comment was the one that encouraged me to finally sign up.

I agree with you completely. Let's not joke at the capabilities of a trillion dollar organization focused on "cyber".

If you are fortunate enough to be a United States citizen who gets up and contributes to society on a daily basis -- you will never have anything to worry about. The NSA won't care anything about your dealings on the internet. Everyone can safely get back to their weird browsing habits and making lame comments on youtube -- no one is watching, because no one cares :)


Wow, I'm flattered that you would sign up because of my comment! I haven't been here that long and hardly ever comment but have always kept an account for times like you describe.
