Some folks have a bizarre sense of their own importance in the scheme of things. The government really doesn't care that much about anyone.

@whowasthatmaskedman idk... with the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001. They can could read into the the wrong thing and make your life hell.

@Lostpoet I'm not saying that I've ever posted anything incriminating.

@whowasthatmaskedman It's not the spying on a single individual thing that is worrisome, but what could happen by applying it to a whole society. Especially if a rogue government takes over and starts using it against their own dissidents.

You are of course correct. In theory. The laws exist. But those who apply them are just as human, understaffed, and flawed as they ever where. Its no different than any other area of regulation. The Rules exist. Enforcement doesn't.@Lostpoet

@Elessar You didn't have a particular administration in mind for this? Maybe one that didn't like free press and was lining the pockets of its close friends. Maybe even owed money to people who didn't support the govt interest?🤔

@whowasthatmaskedman I didn't have any U.S. administration in mind if that's what you're asking, considering I don't live there; mine was a general statement, applicable anywhere. Any party, no matter which orientation, can become rogue. History comes with quite a lot of examples.
