The fact that you don't see any major movement besides small select groups here and there protesting about the issue and anything real being done about it. I'm tired of hearing on HN "oh democracy is dead, the USA is run by the rich and by mega corporations". No, the issues your keep hearing endlessly brought up on HN every day are in fact not as popular to the rest of the USA as you think. The Guardian is doing a great job improving their reader base by stretching out these Snowden revelations and keeping their traffic high for the minority of folks who care about the issue. So maybe that's why it seems to be bigger than it is, as each new release has 10 new HN stories posted about it and also how the NSA is the Most Evil Thing Ever. |
