Re: The whole thing is a mess
Gathering data just like Google, Facebook, Amazon and every other major (usually US based) corporation that can be ordered to hand over data to the Government.
The only difference is that they are doing it for money whilst they own the government.
I don't think there is a huge different other than the self-righteous way the US believes they can interfere anywhere else in the world because they think something is:
Involved in terrorism (but only against the US)
Undemocratic
The latest fad in the "Make America Great" campaign.
A threat to US based companies with large cash reserves and lobbying power.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
