Purely out of curiosity: why did people downvote this comment? If someone who didn't downvote this wants to speculate, please let me know. The downvoting is sometimes spot on, but sometimes it seems a little arbitrary. IMHO, rboyd was just pointing out the potential privacy issues in a humorous way. |

1) It doesn't add anything to the conversation. Yes the NSA watches everything in some way, saying so is redundant.
2) Presumably the connection is encrypted, so the NSA just sees a long lived connection between your and an Amazon data center.
3) Actively pulling data off of a privately owned server inside the US is a bit (but only a bit) of a stretch for what we know about what the NSA does.
