That's exactly what I feel like, but I've been feeling like that for a long time. I used to go out of my way to tell people about these things, but after a while, I figured out that most people just don't care enough to really do anything about it. Sure, they'll pay lip service to the notion that the NSA shouldn't be doing things like this, but there seems to be some sort of implicit trust factor within people that compels them to just shut up and accept that what their leaders are doing is for their own good, which puts a damper on any action they might think about taking. I do think that if the media really got on board with lambasting the government and pointing out the obvious reasons that things like this shouldn't happen, the public at large would eventually start caring, and our society would be better for it - but I don't expect that to happen any time soon, if ever. So instead of hoping that people will eventually catch on to what's going on, I've simply started making plans to get myself out of the pot before the water gets too hot and I'm too cooked to leave.
