This is true for any app, and tracking people who watch stupid videos is not useful for national security.
The Snowden leaks were bad because they showed Americans spied on without warrants. This is about users who for better or worse install the app intentionally.

- meepmorp 2y agoThis article is unrelated to what I was talking about; you should go back and read both what I said (specifically who I mentioned being targeted for surveillance) and the article you linked (specifically who is mentioned being targeted for surveillance).
