“The latest revelations confirm long-standing fears that there is nothing private from the government, which has used a variety of covert, unconstitutional tactics to gain access to Americans’ personal data, online purchases and banking, medical records, and online communications. The government’s methods include the use of supercomputers to hack through privacy settings, collaborations with corporations to create ‘back doors’ for NSA access into encrypted files, and the use of strong-arm tactics against those technology and internet companies who refuse to cooperate. We’re still being taken to the cleaners by a fiscally irresponsible and semi-corrupt government.”
