Meh / Your photo? Tell me so I can credit you

PRISM? Meh

I guess I should care, but I just don’t.

The government is watching. Americans are outraged. I don’t get it.

For some reason, it’s just so tough for me to generate the socially acceptable requiste rage over the recent government snooping scandals.

Maybe it’s because I don’t think I have anything to hide. Maybe it’s because I don’t think I am interesting enough to warrant government interest. Maybe it’s because so much of my life is public. Maybe it’s because I would gladly give up the names and numbers of the people I call and the sites I visit to facilitate crime prevention.

But what is the big deal? I know that everything that I do online can be tracked. Now it turns out someone is actually tracking everything I do. Yet, it doesn’t phase me at all.

Track me as much as you darn please. I have nothing to hide nor any reason to hide.

Can anyone tell me how I’ve been harmed by all this snooping? I’m just not feeling it.
