4. I don't think so. It'll just be a game of jump-through-the-hoops.

Snowden is trying to make it about him. Look, look, see what I did!!!

Obama is letting the phone companies keep the data. Ooooh kay.

He doesn't say that the NSA can't access it with the wink and blink of an eye.

And if "we" can't collect it fast enough to suit NSA, what's to stop NSA from making a "You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours" deal with the British? Answer--nothing at all.

Don't want to be surveilled on the phone? Stay off the damn thing. Don't want your internet "dealings" tracked or traced? Don't do business that way.

That's the only 100 percent solution....and people who don't like that "solution" can't see that this IS the way it is. You put yourself out there, you cannot assure your privacy.
