It wasn't. I agree there's a little bit of wrongness to that, but I hope his parent post won't mind too much, because there's a lot of truth to his point. Often we get more information like this, a fuller understanding of how Americans have been paying billions of dollars to fund this surveillance weapon that threatens the human race, and find an extremely well-written post by an obviously highly intelligent tptacek at the top, explaining why, strictly speaking, this is all legal -- or something. I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds it annoying.

I don't think it's fair to call him out like that, HN is better than this and posts can be dealt with on a one by one basis. Take off all the nicks, for maximum message resolution.

- furyofantares 13y agoOh, I figured I was missing some context. I still hope that's the case. I'm not sure what value there is to replying to imagined posts by people who aren't posting, and hijacking the top rated comment to boot.
