[QUOTE=J!NX;49034499]the funny thing is, the NSA collected so much data that it couldn't handle all of the information, and has thus stopped 0 terrorist attacks.
the idea of collecting internet personal data is pretty stupid, there is too much data to reasonably be useful.
they can pass all of these bills all they want. None of it is as useful as they want to believe it is, and it's too easy to get around if you really will it.[/QUOTE]
the data collected is infinitely more useful for statistical and research reasons than it ever would be for antiterrorism uses

I've always said the Internet was just our modern version of the Old West and will eventually reach the same inevitable conclusion.
Youngins see 2050 as some kind of wireless Deus Ex operated future from their movies and video games, but the reality is that something as uncontrollable as the Internet will never last. They have too much faith in their governments and are fool enough to believe politics is anything but self serving.
Use it and abuse it, it won't be here forever.
