My POV: If we can't have any privacy, why should the government? If we accept privacy of communications for the government and not for ourselves, then we are accepting that the government has more rights than the people. If we should be compliant with body scans and communication monitoring because of the "if you have nothing to hide, then you have nothing to worry about" mantra, then the government should be expected to be fully transparent by the same reasoning. I don't care which it is; privacy for both or privacy for neither, but no way in hell can we accept privacy for the government and not for the citizenry; that's tyranny!

did amazing research here: [2]
'"Whether one figures by acquisition rate, by holding size, or by contributors, the classified universe is, as best I can estimate, on the order of five to ten times larger than the open literature that finds its way to our libraries. Our commonsense picture may well be far too sanguine, even inverted. The closed world is not a small strongbox in the corner of our collective house of codified and stored knowledge. It is we in the openworld—we whostudy the world lodged in our libraries, from aardvarks to zymurgy, we who are living in a modest information booth facing outwards, our unseeing backs to a vast and classified empire we barely know."'
too bad so many people have become so dumb downed they don't see the significance in this removal of knowledge and how it is fostering a master/slave culture and economy throughout the western world at warp speed.
