Dear Government,
Your power arises from the consent of the governed, not from corporations who are too lazy to come up with a post-internet business model.
We don’t like you spying on us.
We especially don’t like you lying about it.
It’s even more disgusting that you pretend that the whistleblower who outed your reprehensible deeds is the real criminal. You sound like some brat whining that he got caught.
Even people who don’t care that much about politics are awake and listening. We won’t rest until you stop reading private emails, listening to private phone calls, and doing other warrantless searches.
You got caught doing something wrong. Apologize, and stop, like your mother told you. Mmm kay?
Love, Me
P.S. Also, pretty please, quit waving the 9/11 martyr flag every time you want us to forget how much of our rights we lost in the name of anti-terrorism.
