Anyone remember this campy 1998 movie about the NSA as a rogue behemoth, monitoring everyone and collecting shockingly intrusive data so that it was almost impossible to escape from them or to hide from them? Fifteen years ago, it was presented as fiction and perhaps as a warning. Today, Will Smith seems to be celebrating the fact that it is reality.

They were supposed to be warnings, not blueprints!

I do remember that. And, honestly thought it wasn’t that far-fetched, but that’s based on my personal past, and imaging “what evil lurks in the heart of men”.
