But don’t worry, the FBI would never spy on you...

They are too busy making sure no one copies DVD’s
I feel so much safer knowing the FBI is on the case. /LOL
Never! They are upstanding law enforcement people! Wait my tongue about snapped off its roller after saying that. I just wonder how many times the FBI, CIA and NSA have tapped into tv’s, phones or just out right bugged the homes of American citizens for their political purposes. After the 2016 election I would say if the truth were known the peasants would descend on these agencies headquarters with copious amounts of tar and feathers for these low life goons.
I have a smart tv in my office and the first thing the IT guy did who set it up was to ask if I had any black or duct tape, yeah I said. He got a small piece and taped over the camera and mic points and said you don’t know how easy it is to hack into one of these. He used to work in IT in the USMC. Sadly this dude passed from cancer a year or so ago.
