I don't agree with it but every time you try to beat the drum of privacy that's the first thing I'm used to hearing! |

Madison, AL | Maybe because it's been proven time and again that private information sent in the clear is constantly being dragnetted by various parties for various reasons, whether they have any interest in YOUR information or not, without you consent or even your knowledge?
And I'm not solely talking about either of government, law enforcement, business, private or illicit entities at any given moment. |

I always argue that if you aren't pushing drugs, or selling them, or talking to little boys or girls then the government shouldn't be monitoring you in the first place  |

I don't want the government finding out about my Harry Potter collection!
The why do you need it if you're not doing anything wrong argument is BS. Why do I need a Smith & Wesson if I'm not doing anything wrong, perhaps to blow away someone who wants to do something wrong to me.
And if it becomes as easy as they want it to be the system wil be abused by those who would never even think it was wrong. What if an ex works for law enforcement and has access to the text message database and just wants to spy on you, etc. I can give a million examples but they all pretty much end up the same, I don't want someone looking over my shoulder.
