    I should have made this thread today. I'm sick and didn't feel like it.

    Anyway..

    It didn't really surprise me. The NSA did something similar years ago with a phone spying program. Still it bothers me they can demand the companies hand over massive amounts of data without warrants or anything.

    Like, I get the whole apathy/the internet remembers everything/be cautious of what you reveal online shtick...

    ...but it is a little worrisome how dismissive the majority is about how two normally contentious entities are working together to snoop into your privacy.

    it's a lot less "working together" and a lot more "being strongarmed into turning over data"

    still wholly unsurprising to the point of lols. if you haven't been watching what you do on the web then idk what ot tell ya

    It's interesting that Apple didn't get on board until 2012. I wonder if their CEO died the year prior or something...

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    The internet has never been private. With or without the NSA.

    All the responses in this thread is the reason they can do this and not expect any backlash.

    I do fuck all on the internet to be worried about it, doesn't mean I want them going through my texts/emails for no fucking reason other than "we can." We wouldn't be happy with unwarranted house or car searches, yet we're okay with our data being mined?

    This information was already being stored (and maybe data mined) by all these private companies to begin with. The NSA taking a peek should do absolutely nothing to make you worry. You're were already being watched. This is just one more set of eyes among a hundred others.

    While companies selling information or what have you to other private companies is pretty deplorable in it's own right, there's a difference between that and a government entity violating constitutional rights because america
