Dear USA,

You are probably correct. My point is that I can make it slightly more complicated for you to sniff around in my data, and that was the whole point of this move.

If more people do this, it will get progressively harder for you to do your mass surveillance job as you do it now.

I'm sorry I had to leave you, cpbotha

If you think the USA is alone in their desire to surveille you're going to have a rough time around the world. The USA had the means, but the will is there worldwide.
This is true, but outside of the US, China, and probably Europe, few countries' governments have the money to do this or the priorities to do it.
