I am tired of seeing it and tired of hearing about it. If I knew Anonymous's phone number I would call them but I don't . I just want to be a person like them when they took down child porn rings except this time it is Nazi's and all that entails

The government had full access to people's social media accounts, emails, personal computers, phones, and even webcams and microphones way back in the early 2000's. If they could do that back then with a super secretive program and limited funding, imagine what they can do now with a fully funded Patriot Act and no mandate for discretion. It's not the whole government that has these resources, but the NSA and CIA certainly do, and they've all agreed to share with each other ever since 9/11.

Exactly this. Privacy is an illusion.
