Just because "government" is the label behind every federal worker sifting through this data doesn't mean it's all clean work. This sort of thing needs regulation; the National Security Agency was and continues to be a joke.

I don't mind if the government monitors the Internet - just like the FDA regulates the food we eat - but restrictions should be established. There's too much leeway for abuse that was actually exploited, which is a huge reason behind these protests.
