I don't think I have been more conflicted about this. I've just been talking to my cofounders about the technical feasibilities of XKeyScore, and honestly, our back-of-napkin engineering configurations indicate this is really an awesome project to be working on.
On the other hand, this is categorically 'evil' by my and my cofounders' ethical standards, and really, no one is safe. And that bugs the hell out of me.
On the one hand: really fucking cool. On the other, I really do not like the idea that I am being spied on.

I think a better word for this is "scary", due to the level of cooperation from corporations and the level of secrecy it was running under for so long.
