hi doma,
well, you are way ahead of me.
snowden has changed everything.
before snowden, i thought the us and british governments believed the same things i do. that you don't do broad surveillance. that you have to have reasonable grounds for suspicion in order to capture information about people. that individual liberty is the foundation of our security as well as our social contract.
after snowden, i know that isn't the case. that a group with terrifying ambitions has been building a vast machinery outside the public eye. and i see how tc might advance its construction.
seen this way, the world makes sense again. why is nsa supportive of tc? because it offers them benefits.
it's a complete perversion of the original idea.
