Have you changed what you say on internet because of NSA Surveillance

This is not a debate over the type of data being collected

I just what to know from DU'ers has the current revelations of NSA surveillance changed the context of your internet posting or personal phone calls

2. Me? No, since after 10 years it is quite probably too late. My children?

Getting a lot more cautionary tales about keeping a very low profile electronically. And getting free chauffeur service anywhere so that they prefer face-to-face to anything that can be monitored by the pervs.

What a world!

4. I guess I am pretty milquetoast

I am neither a criminal nor a political extremist. I have suspected them of doing it since the 1980s anyhow (especially for people active on DU), so no, my electronic habits have not changed. I was a shortwave radio listener and former Navy Electronics Technician. I sometimes worked with Electronics Warfare Specialists and Cryptology Technicians. I was taught at a young age that you never want to say anything electronically that you would not shout in the main square because somebody somewhere is listening.

Nevertheless that does not mean I think it's alright for the NSA to violate everyone's rights by going fishing. It just means I have been an aware fuddy duddy for a very long time.

6. No.

 

It's when they go after you that you have to worry. Our constitution is now meaningless. All they have to do is site "national security".

10. If they're in full swing now then it's been going on for a while

I remember AT&T doing it for Bush a few years back. If they haven't arrested me by now then I guess I'm not criminal enough because I've said some very nasty shit about the Bush Era. Especially regarding The Dick Cheney. If he hasn't had me arrested I don't think anyone will.
