It's amazing that John Lewis can be so easily insulted by people hiding behind keyboards.

...one of these threads where Snowden isn't interjected one way or another.

You are right, this is about the expansion of not just the government but corporate entities into our private lives. There needs to be a thorough examination of what's going on and a Church-type commission established to get to the bottom of any and all NSA and other government abuses. Above all, we need clarified where our privacy starts and "national security" or whatever you want to call it begins. Also who can have access to our private data such as your phone meta records or billing records or buying habits that are routinely bought and sold without your knowledge (and I would imagine consent)...data that could affect your credit rating that could prohbit you from getting a car or a job. You're damn right this isn't about Snowden...but doesn't seem some folks here can't get beyond him. By hiding 6,000 miles away he's worthless in helping in the next step of the process...demanding our congresscritters look into what they've authorized...

Cheers...
