It's not a shock. What is shocking, is the blatant disregard for general pr=
ivacy. Because it exists on a medium other than something I own, it does no=
t somehow become property of another. If this isn't a big deal, I imagine a=
 search of your home isn't an issue either? The point is, these companies h=
ave the power (they, after all, pay for elections) to tell these people.. I=
t's not your call. You cannot simply say we are collecting everything, to a=
vert an attack. The Boston guys were both from out of the country, with for=
eign names, and foreign governments had warned us before. How effective is =
a machine that scans data for terrorist machines, if a FLAGGED person can s=

This jihad against America has accomplished one thing, we are going broke t=

with a bomb in his shorts and MADE IT TO AMERICAN SOIL. If I am giving up p=
rivacy, I expect a tangible return. A couple of bedroom bombers slipping th=

::::: off topic rant :::::

Just assume no data you store and or traverses any public cloud
service is private or secure this is just silly.

I can't believe people are so naive to believe messages sent over the
public Internet isn't intercepted stored and analyzed by the same
government bodies who gave it to us in the first place.

I've always heard rumors as a kid that the NSA had systems long in
place that could record all voice calls based on certain key phrases
ever since the Nixon era so please tell me why are most people shocked
with all the spying by governments?
