25. I did not mean to argue semantics here,

They are doing it, 'right' or no 'right.' its all over the news they have ADMITTED it. Only on around Dec 15 a federal judge ruled it wrong, but there has been no announcement yet that they are stopping it. This is a war in progress, very public. This is the America we live in today, wake up and smell the roses we are losing our right to privacy in EVERY facet of our lives and at a very rapid pace.

I am editing this post only to add the link below, whicy may bring you to many other links, it is totally up to you at this point to figure out whether I am a paranoid liar or not, I can only lead a horse to water. I have started seeing the specifics of how deep it really goes already only recently and am still a bit shell-shocked myself.

I was trying to copy and paste an excerpt but I cant figure out how to do it on this stupid tablet. Basically is states exactly what I already said, they are tracking everybody's everything, and it is up to us to put a stop to it or not.
