There is a point when foreign signal intelligence project turns into an act of war. Large scale hacking of phone companies and stealing SMS data gets pretty fucking close to that line, if not outright crosses it. Not that you should care about my opinion of course, I'm just one of those silly foreigners whose right to privacy you think it's just fine to violate. You have a gov agency whose self-proclaimed job it is to monitor the world and violate everyone's privacy. Congratulations, it is doing its job very well. So, everything is fine, right?
