who ho ho - the government is spying on AMERICANS! God's chosen people!!! How is such horrible crime even possible? "we knew the government was spying on our ENEMIES" (that's cool) As usual reality is its own parody. Oh and the icing on the cake "we the people own the government" =) =) =) Surely you can find something a little better grarpamp? =)

It's probably quite hard for people to find some combination of concise, well presented, and even research backed arguments against surveillance (or for it, if you lean that way), or even definitions of spying, among all the vague words soundbited from transcripts and then flooded through the evening news... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2riOiBaZrg http://justsecurity.org/20304/transcript-nsa-director-mike-rogers-vs-yahoo-e... http://it.slashdot.org/story/15/02/24/1924234/nsa-director-wants-legal-right... So when news hits, on occaision and invariably either you or they bump into people who want to know what it is and what it all means. What do you tell them? Where do you point them? What are the results of their own independant internet search queries? https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=nsa+spying https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=surveillance Which channels are unbiased and show the correct path? And then more news comes along... http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/feb/24/chicago-police-detain-america... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kV44uHlXnx8 And the same questions arise each time. Is there information overload leading people to a tuned out don't care situation? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybBa_Ygg1rE Yet access to the various tubes for that is apparently now being real-id'd and prioritized in various countries... different than original internet. Will this affect ability to speak, share, and discern? https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=censorship How can people interpret? Where do they turn to? By asking the God you mentioned? Demanding more quality from news media? Or enjoying the front page diversion instead? https://www.youtube.com/ Something better? If you find such an interpretation there's a world out there that would like to know.
