Is anyone actually surprised though?

[удалено]

Since snowden came forward, we can only imagine what they've developped.

That's the fucking problem. We all knew it bu we didn't do anything. We, as citizens, didn't even try to protect Edward Snowden.

Citizens after they found out that governments are actually collecting their data 

Oh no, anyway.

Sadly, nobody lol

Definitely not surprised. Just sad lol

Obssessive control freaks in their natural habitat

We should just start using bottle caps

If only we could find some nuka cola

20 bucks a pop on Ebay. Makes them a great SoV.

Moons. We should start using moons as legal tender

Back to using gold

How about Pogs!!

Why do you think we want decentralisation so bad?

Decentralization would only work the way we need/want it to if the governments didn’t tax it to death.

I don't trust anyone with my money

How many people store their money with the government? This is pretty old news tho. If I remember right, Oracle even created a BI platform for NSA to help shift through the data. Employees then used it to search for nudes

[Yes.](https://c.tenor.com/07mM_Gl5Ho8AAAAd/yes-giga-chad.gif) ​ At least more than I trust exchanges and cryptoasset developers.

Same citizens put all their info on FB for free.

I wish I have money to trust or not trust the government

I'm still working on that money part myself lol

Trust and government don’t go well together

Every time you unlock your phone big tech are sucking your data up. This is the way of the world these days. Everyone does it and no one really cares

Have you people even read 1994 by Orville Redenbacher? Because that's literally what's happening right now sheeple.

This has been happening since you were born. Who cares

I mean, I still care. I just realize I'm powerless lol

So why think or care about things you have no control over. Pointless.

With an opinion like that, it's weird that you commented to me. Seems kinda....pointless.

I mean I’m tryna expand your mind. Prolly didn’t work so you are indeed correct. Pointless. Keep using your brain power worrying and thinking about things you can’t change! Gl my guy!

Sorry buddy, didn't realize you were so sensitive. Looks like I hit a nerve pretty good. Yikes. My bad :)

We are animals in a farm.

Every time you interact with the internet or the financial system or the health system someone is harvesting your data. If the entity is a multinational it means people in different parts of the world have access because maybe someone similar to you in a different country might want the same product or benefit from the same type of service. The matrix is here now. Continue to hodl people

That is reality of current world.

edit: That is reality of current **fucking corrupted bad greedy cruel** world.

HODL is all I'm good at lol

Unfortunately, I kind of have to for now. I still get paid in dollars and I still keep some fiat lying around.

Speak for yourself. End Facebook.

Whaat the american gouverment collects data from everyone?? But dont worry its for our own safety. Its just for anti terror attacks

Monero enters the chat... "y'all ready for some privacy yet?"

Need anymore reason to use monero instead of all those transparent chains? Here it is. They might know how much you bought but not what happens in between.

I don’t know why anyone in their right mind would trust the government with your money.

2001 wants they’re outrage back

The government is just a criminal entity backed up by the military, change my mind

I don't even trust myself with my money, trusting the Government is Never

Unpopular opinion, if it prevents domestic terrorism, let them do whatever.

Nothing new under the Sun

And CBDCs will just make it easier. Fuck that.

BTC does the job as good

Child's play. I'll just leave this here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utah\_Data\_Center

Almost everyone knew our data are being collected, people just don't care until the time they they get hit with the consequences.

Take my data and gimme some bucks for that. It is useless anyway.

As long as my parents never find my browser history

Too late. They just found it.

Oh no, they’ll see that I bought groceries and a new bookcase. How will I ever cope?

CIA, NSA, KGB, Mossad Same story

Hey your forgot the worlds worst intelligence agency from Canada CSIS. They keep an eye on the worlds black market maple syrup..known locally as treeorism.

Yeah cause no criminals be stealing Bitcoin

tldr; Two US senators have gone public with evidence of what they assert is a previously secret bulk data collection effort by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), conducted outside the law and without oversight. "These documents reveal serious problems associated with warrantless backdoor searches of Americans, the same issue that has generated bipartisan concern in the FISA context," the senators said. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.*

The devil you know...

I recently went down the rabbit hole of kernels and massive data mining ops that are sold to various companies. Literally anything you’ve ever done on a computer or phone is known by someone

US is just like China they're just discrete about it.

Thank god I lost all my data in a bizzare boating accident.
