>Clinton and the DNC establishment support National Security Letters, NSA spying, PRISM, Echelon, the idea that if you're not doing anything wrong, you have no expectation of privacy.

Clinton, the DNC establishment and the Republican establishment support these things, and have for a long time. Don't forget it was Dick Cheney who tried to convince Americans to accept the "new normal" of the war on terror and attacks on civil liberties being necessary after 9/11.

Schadenfreude's fun and all but I'm not going to feel any better with Trump in charge of the kill list than Clinton.
