We have recently learned that the U.S. government is in a huge collection mode (as if we didn’t already know right) against us citizens.

I for one am less worried about what the government collects on me and my family than I am about what companies, corporations, and private industry collects on us and how they use it. At least the government is bound to play by some margin of regular rules and supervision even if it is a secret federal court. I am NOT saying it is right and I am Not saying its harmless – I am just saying it is less evil than others already collecting on you. Private industry entities collecting information on us are motivated by a whole other set of reasons & set of morals if any at all in some cases.

I can tell you its big dollars from an economic stand point and all the players are assembled from government offensive and defensive teams to the business of cyber bullying by competitors against one another and in some cases it’s a fight to the death in a bare knuckled fight. Secret company against company battles rage a crossed the globe every day and there are casualties.

Snowden’s leaks of intelligence are mostly directed to what the government is collecting on us Americans and us citizens as individuals – we now know well what government can do with mishandled information once incentivized by political agenda (ie IRS scandalous behavior anyone?).
