I’m sure they will promise to not do it again. Just ask them.

I hope no one is surprised what the traitor and The Greatest Fraud Ever did. After arrest, quick, fair trail and conviction, the putrid oaf should be hanged.

They should be forced to give the data back to the person it was harvested from. That way we would all know how intrucively evil they are.
To: Texan4Life
That is going to upset Maxine Waters and Obama’s massive database.

I’m not aware, but, did Trump stop the NSA data collection after he became president?

They dont care what the courts say. They are a law unto themselves. They will continue to suck up all digital communication and store it in a massive database. Be forewarned.
