Thanks eagle-eyed sycophants of the state for amending the title so it's harder to understand the practical impact of this proposal. More colossal stupidity.
My point is that the government cannot be expected to competently judge itself. That is our task as citizens, if you want to use those reports as the basis of your ill-informed opinion, go ahead.
That's the wrong date. Again, it doesn't seem you know anything about the PCLOB. Basic information is on Wikipedia, if you ever look.
Do you have any point besides making endless discursive asides about how much you simultaneously believe and disbelieve the PCLOB? I'm starting to think conversing with you is a complete waste of time.
Foreign intelligence is used to interrogate/arrest/kill people. Only powers that are granted can be misused, we as citizens can take anything we want away from the government.
That's hilarious. It doesn't sound like you know anything about the PCLOB.
This group of political appointees presided over the genesis of the largest surveillance/propaganda program in the history of the world. Corrupt and inept seems fair.
But you're saying one unconstitutional, immoral, wasteful program has been deemed useful by a corrupt and inept body, and the other hasn't. That's a really great idea I'll consider carefully.
I am curious to hear a little more. In many senses, worry/anxiety is endemic to humans. 'What will I eat/drink to survive?' at the most basic level if you look at how we as creatures have come about. Since these needs are largely fulfilled in modern society these questions get much more idiosyncratic; that is, they are suited uniquely to our individual situations so it's hard to proceed without knowing a little more about what drives some of your feelings of anxiety.
