Friendly reminder that 7 years of illegal NSA spying failed to stop a single terror attack.

I think the recent court ruling looked at 7 years of spying. I could be misremembering.

7 years ago was when the Snowden leaks happened, so I think they’d been doing it for awhile beforehand. Doesn’t really matter, just curious about the number you used.

I read somewhere that proton gave info to law enforcement upon request without even demanding to see a warrant (don’t have a good source for that claim though)

It’s the same issue that cropped up with the locked iPhone the FBI wanted access to

They asked Apple to make a master key for them

But that could be used on any device anywhere, a massive overstep

This is so disgusting, one terrorist attack and these ghouls immediately use it to give the cops and intelligence even more power. Every fucking time, like clockwork.

But hey, you surely have nothing to hide, right?
