Spy scandal - anyone bothered by the US government sweeping through *everything* we do online..?

[edam]

Seems Uncle Sam can just hoover up data from Microsoft, Google, Facebook, Apple, Youtube and the rest. US govt is busy reassuring Americans this 'only' applies to foreigners. Like us.

One boffin interviewed on Channel Four news said they may look for keywords like 'Iran' - so if you've ever commented on a thread about Iran, people working for that nice Mr Obama may have been watching...

Is that a statement or a question?

By the way, my phone's autocorrect uses an American English dictionary. I'm mentioning that just in case you noticed my American spelling and gone Ah Ha! On that basis.

It is a statement.
Nothing to do with any American spellings.

Am I still supposed to be black?

My job is done.

And it was a job well done. Despite my efforts to remain anonymous, you and your savvy tech skills managed to unearth the fact that I am an African American living in the UK and that I have a DC in Year 8 and once used the words 'proletariat' and 'bourgeoisie' in a post. This was a clear demonstration of your intellectual superiority.
