    Remember the best way we can spy on ourselves is by asking another 5eyes what they spied on inside our borders. They have the resources, and we’re not in trouble for internal surveillance when we use those resources.

      If the five eyes didn’t exist. each country would still spy on their own citizens anyway.

      I don’t like it but that is the reality.

      At least it has a positive now and then, like this case.

        At least this massive violation of human rights can be used to pick a fight with another country who disregards human rights.
