Dream on.
Go back to sleep now every thing will be alright. Just keep dreamin.
Sorry but I'm just not as paranoid as most here. It makes no sense to try and spy on everyone. They simply don't have the numbers or resources to go after billions of people. They will be most interested in people with political and economical sway. You are not special, no matter how much you want to be.
You say it makes no sense to try and spy on everyone. You do realize they have admitted to doing just that. They use the bulk info and then narrow it down. Also you have no idea who they are interested in. You put things forward as fact but in reality it is personal truth and personal truth is subjective.

You know when you argue with an idiot the idiot wins because of simple rules of engagement. To continue the banter with the government apologist is shear stupidity. Here is another euphemism, "When you lie down with dogs you get up with fleas."
How anyone cannot see the gross abuse of the government spying on all of us is really unbelievable, but everyone has to make a living I guess.
They've pretty much alerady out-smarted, out-ranked, out-classed, and out-gunned us all.

What a silly waste of time this thread is.
I'm sorry, did you use the term "official statements" seriously?
Most of you haven't even read any of the official statements explaining
"No mom, I don't do that stuff anymore. I threw it all away."
and how most is discarded.
You people are determined to defend the idea you are being oppressed no matter what. Very, very sad.edit on 23-6-2013 by CallYourBluff because: (no reason given)
