Companies like Facebook, Amazon, Twitter, etc do collect personal data about each of us, but in my view, it is done more as a "collective" type of thing -- done more so to "sell" us things-- to direct advertisements/direct market to us, if you will. Then, there's what comes after the ads trying to convince us we need some new toaster or gadget, and that's the messages, often subtle, that try to change or direct out way of thinking. Political "non-ads" that are designed to look and read like actual news, and a great example of that is Russia's effort to sway public opinion in US elections, most notably the 2016 presidential election. It's just a faster, more direct, more pinpointed and more technologically advanced version of stapling flyers to lampposts.

@gusjohnson1908 Given some of the slimy characters Trump has already pardoned, there's no, ZERO, ZILCH reason(s) for him not to have already pardoned Snowden!!

@slumz12 He exposed that the government was collecting data (spying) on individual US Citizens' personal lives that they had no legal right to do-- and that is just for starters. If you looked a bit more into what he exposed, you'd most likely be OUTRAGED.

Sounds like Donald Trump's mantra.

I just don't think I am or my life is interesting enough for the government to even WANT to spy on me. I'm think I may be a bit jealous of the lives of those who are being spied upon!
