I think you'd be hard pressed to find people at the NSA who don't care about the common good. Perhaps you don't share the same understanding of what constitutes the common good, but your accusation is unfair.
I do not think you know what the hell you're talking about - and I also don't think you understand the gravity of the power that having an octopus for total information awareness over the planet actually means.
The fact that there exists danger in "an octopus for total information awareness", and that IMO it's entirely undesirable, it's also perfectly possible that a bunch of people disagree with me, and believe that the existence of such is indeed for the "common good."
You don't win a war like this by painting these people as evil or amoral. They are just wrong.
