Give up on privacy or fight back?

Right now, it looks like the only time I might have some privacy, is while taking a s**t, assuming no one would be interested in me taking one. With new information on CIA spying techniques being revealed, that might be in doubt.

Nonsense Bro. Russia is a happy place. All they want is the freedom to enjoy caviar and drink vodka. They have no interests in foreign wars, international espionage, or meddling in foreign elections. lol

Those discussions had absolutely nothing to do with election rigging or hacking. PussyGrabber-in-Chief was merely discussing how on earth he was ever going to pay back the $560 billion he owes to the Kremlin. lol

A few voices have been preaching about just this for the longest while, and usually with stern criticism.

Its ironic what the land of the free..brave..democracy has come to. Its mass surveilkance old Soviet Union kgb, East german stye 2.0. 2017.

But......we are free as many proudly boast.

To the victors go the spoils (I heard that before somewhere).

We (USA) emerged from the Cold War as victors, so it's prudent that we adopt (or adapt) some of the practices that worked well for the vanquished, the Soviets.

I predicted it would happen (not all the details, mind you). Yes, I can recall such a discussion with my friend while we sat on my front step (on Long Island) drinking cold ones.

Blame 9/11? People were willing to trade privacy for security.

I caution people on here about passing laws to punish fake news writers. Once freedoms and privacies are taken away, it's hard to get them back.
