Surely you see this plain reality, right? I walked into Iraq in 2005 (as a journalist) and talked to people who had their entire family murdered by our war machine. The NSA spying was used in full during in our illegal war in Iraq. Surely, we should consider this as part of the balance, right? > I am all for finding those guys before they can do harm.

We require both policy and technology solutions. We should reflect on our ideas of liberty and enshrine them in our technology. I'd like to find the 'bad guys' too - have you looked at the NSA lately? They're not the good guys when they commit crimes against the American people or the rest of the world. Especially when they lie to the US Congress, I might add. There are real attackers and the NSA is merely one of them. We need to secure the DNS against tampering (DNSSEC), against observation (to resist specific targeting, censorship, etc) and we'll need to do similar things to other protocols. If you look ahead a few years, I encourage you to consider that your political fixes will not impact the Chinese, Russian, British or even *my* capabilities without concrete technical backing. That is one of the goals of perpass - to solve the technical problems and with that, a policy person may be able to present a political solution. Currently, we lack both political and technical solutions to mass surveillance. Sincerely, Jacob
