As a student studying computer security, I want to make one thing clear. Governments will always spy on us. We cannot change that. We did not care until the media found some evidence and shoved it down our throats. All this "monitoring" does is passively scans for potentially dangerous things. I do not care if the government sees my browsing history. There's nothing in there that I'm afraid of anyone seeing - and yes, I'm including the porn that we all look at. And I much prefer having that extra layer of internet security to having "private" data that's actually easier to access.
