Censorship will be next “to save democracy”. Free Republic may eventually be removed.

They couldn’t exactly predict it because they first had to pass the bill to find out what’s in it.

Business entities regardless of size are now reflexively complying, submissively like sheep, whenever Big Brother comes around, demanding customer data.

You used to read stories about this or that company resisting, but no longer.

The federal government is in this regard on an unobstructed rampage that only Congress can stop or impede. Even they though shrink from the role of watchdog.

I often wonder if this guy is a hero or a traitor. I’d say both. He blew the whistle big time, then went to a potential enemy, and he’s bound to have given some secrets away. Should he be given a medal or a rope, again I’d say both.

Another poster mentioned FR could go away, I tend to see this as a possibility. They can’t have people preaching the Constitution is the just law of the land or that Christ is real.

Exactly—Congress just wants to protect the guilty.

Snowden and the rest of the whistleblowers are heros.

Those who use technology to mass spy on Americans—directly or indirectly—are traitors.

We may not be able to stop the traitors but at least those who are paying attention now understand the rules of the game these days...

There are no rules—we are on our own.

Watch the movie Snowden. Shows how NSA can be used to blackmail anyone. Especially politicians.

Dems seem immune from this by design

Hero or villain if the movie shows reality it is a key to understanding how Congress is so dysfunctional.

In the end like Biden it’s all about the $$$

Yes, they have, logging everything. Able to sift thru with supercomputers at ALL, I repeat ALL, communications, phone calls, emails, even video game blogs. Everything.

They got the goods, of good guys and bad guys. "We've caught them All!"
