    Maybe it’s good to remind people it’s still happening because apparently everyone forgot we were told they’ve been doing this, for a while.

    anecdotally: people chose to forget so that they don’t have to change their world view. every single snowden revelations denier i know is either software engineer, network engineer, or devops

      That’s a good point, as a Sys Admin I’ve ran into a few coworkers like that myself. Not sure how somebody could deny it at this point tbh though.
