  1. And here is where we come to a problem. Obviously, governments make mistakes and go overboard *cough* NSA *cough* but we also have to acknowledge that bad people are out there and agencies like this can help us. Too far in either direction is very bad news. All privacy means bad people can hide beyond these services and not get caught until it may be too late. On the other side of the spectrum, we have no privacy and a government that detains you for the smallest detail. What we need is somewhere in the middle. Some way for agencies to access the information with the cooperation of the service in question would be beneficial. Warrants would be needed and once the it is safe to do so, transparency will be important. When a government makes a mistake they should be held responsible for it and make the necessary changes for next time.

  2. And you my friend have now worded the exact dilemma I was poking at. I obviously couldn't agree more here.
