Meanwhile in the US the NSA just hoovering up every bit of data ever.
They've made some good calls. See my other comment.

And those are all very recent.
"u good?"
My FBI agent after seeing that I read this post.
Hit this one because I couldn't believe it. But, now that I know it's Canada, I can believe it.
I'm sorry for giving you false hope.
The US Court has made quite a few unexpected rulings, or refused to hear cases you might have expected them to overturn.
Most damaging court of my lifetime, but they're not automatically set to "evil".
Trans kids and bathrooms. Lower court ruling stands.
Supreme Court allows federal agents to cut razor wire Texas installed on US-Mexico border
Supreme Court announced Tuesday it won’t hear a case challenging Washington’s capital gains tax.
Supreme Court rejects appeal from Trump-allied lawyers over 2020 election lawsuit in Michigan
Supreme Court rejects appeal from 3 GOP House members over $500 mask fines.
Those cases are only from a month or so of collecting. I don't have faith in the Court, but neither do I think they'll fuck everything up.
