Snowden, if any, shown that the USA gov can and already do regularly monitor communications.
We have CTF, KYC and AML regulations, as well as any related laws, for a reason.
Europe has now to deal with Russian invasion of Ukraine, because of this anti American sentiment.
If you don't see how the two things are related, and blame the USA who's the largest security supporter of Ukraine and Europe via NATO, then this whole privacy debate is useless.
Edit: 100 years ago, Germany was in a similar position like Russia today. Large powerhouse who thought they could get their way by military force. Sure, let Germany take some poland. Because of Germany we got WW1 and WW2, and 100 years later many haven't really learned their lessons.

- frankreyes 3y agoI'm from latin America and we have plenty of reasons to argue against the USA. For example Operation Condor. But I also have a brain, and while I'm a huge critic of those things, I'd side with them anytime against current dictatorial regimes. Why people romanticize dictators and reject democracy, I don't know.
