Not necessarily everyone in the world.

But to the NSA, certainly *EVERYONE* inside the United States of America is suspicious.

I read a line from TFA with disbelieve ...

How naive the author of TFA can be !

The author should have known that the so-called "criminal justice system" of the United States of America is no longer the same one under the Constitution of the United States of America !

Under the "Patriot Act", under the Bush and Obama Administration, United States of America has essentially become the United Soviet of America.

There is no longer the presumption of innocent until proven guilty.

Nowadays, *EVERYONE IS A SUSPECT* no matter what you have done.

Nowadays, It is *UP TO THE DEFENDANT* to prove himself/herself innocent.

Yesssirreee, that's the USA that we've gotten, the United -freaking- SOVIET of America.

.... fart ?

Since its existence is to "protect" something, I guess this database of everything is better than what the German Stasi used to keep.

A security flaw is a security flaw. Whether or not it's a "gaping hole" it still can be exploited.

For that, I sincerely thank Microsoft for so kindly pointed out that security flaw.

No matter what's the ultimate intention / agenda of Microsoft in this case, with this security flaw exposed, let us hope that Google can do something to plug it, and make those "Billion Android Devices" just a little bit more safer.

Let's say I robbed you, and because of that, I found that you've got a gun.

And because of that, *YOU* are dangerous !!!

You, Sir, have a weird sense of humor !

Not all of us like to pull all-nighters.

For some of us, our brains refuse to stop going overdrive until our mission / project is over.

Since my college days, whenever I am in a mission for something, my brain kicks up to the overdrive, and even if I sleep, it still keep churning and churning, resulting in me having really lousy sleeps, with imageries of what I was doing, what I am going to do, what I ought be doing (some times they are " hints " from the sub-conscious) kept on flashing up in my dreams.

For example: I may be in the middle of a very difficult and confusing debugging job.

After non-stop eyeballing the codes, countless re-and re-re-running of the resulting compilations, I get tired and hit the sack.

But in my dreams, images of the screens popping up, with texts (source code) scrolling up and down and sideways, with my "dream self" doing the "virtual debugging" inside my dreams.

It's a goddamn fucking torture, man.

That is why sometimes I rather pull an all-nighters to get the job done, rather than having those un-ending-loop of imagery invading my sleep.

... people can claim that they did not know how to do witchcraft, but they could point out to the judge which person were witches which were not.

In the 21st century, people can claim that they do not know how to hack, but they can tell the court who are the hackers and who are not.

As if people never learned any lesson from what had transpired three long centuries ago.

As has been portrayed to all of us, lying to the congress, even under oath, is not a crime, as long as you can proof that you are part of the spook network, and/or in charge of the "security" of the nation.

We have become a country where the laws no longer apply to certain *special privileged* people.

Making the people stupid is what every government in the world is busy doing, including the government of the United States of America.

And NSA, being a part of the government of the United States of America, knows that the more stupid the Americans are, the more easier their job will become.

But NSA is soooooooooooo unlucky, for there are _still_ a portion of the Americans who prefer to use their brains, yes, the ones in between their ears, rather than believe in everything that came down from the White House and the Congress.

With Snowden's revelation, at the very least, we have proofs that our government, the government of the United States of America, has turned rogue.

Our Constitution, the Constitution of the United States of America, have been violated.

Our rights, as defined by the Bill of Rights, have been purposely ignored.

And luckily for America, we, whom still manage to keep our rationality (unlike those who soak in everything Obama / Feinstein said) know that we not only have the right, but it is *OUR DUTY" as Citizens of the United States of America, to stand up against this goddamn rogue regime.

You are way too optimistic.

What we know *NOW* is what what Snowden has leaked out, and what "people in the know" decided to share.

It does not mean that the picture is complete. Far from it !

There * could be * far more devastatingly advanced infrastructure already there, and/or being built, that even Snowden does not know about - and/or something so sensitive even the people in the know dare not share with us.

I am not saying that we should let our imagination run wild and speculating everything and anything.

What I am saying is that I no longer have no idea how wide, how deep and how extensive the NSA surveillance program has covered.

And I am not kidding to you when I say I am scared, for I can no longer foresee what type of future all of us (and our children, and their children) gonna have.

If RR world HQ denied it, may be I'll believe it to be debunked.

RR Malaysia ? How much weight does RR Malaysia has ??

Would IBM's Armonk HQ tell IBM Moscow everything ?

Would Boeing Chicago world HQ tell Boeing Beijing everything ?

Are you a troll or are you just stupid ?

NSA ?

GCHQ ?

Or their equivalent from South Korea ?
