I am very glad that people keep talking about this. I wish that I had more to contribute to the debate and conversation that isn't just rehashing the same discussions we've had for the past month. Something more than "Shut down the NSA!", something that can keep the ball rolling here.
The "ball rolling here" will accomplish absolutely nothing. The ball has to get out of the building where 'real people' live, where politicians are, and so on.
What will stop the ball rolling is if vast dossiers of information was released about the politicians themselves, that the "security" program had been collecting on them. As soon as dirty laundry is aired about a huge amount of them, with the knowledge that more has yet to come they will spring into action faster than the road runner to get this program shut down. And I'm not talking about national security stuff, just stuff you wouldn't want everyone else to know.
