Not sure what that has to do with my post.  I never made any claims to the
contrary.  Only that if the government is going to resort to NSA-level
skimming of info then they're going to have all your info whether you take
steps to try to prevent them from having it or not, because anything that
pertains to what you're doing with others or in public will be in other's
people online data that they're still skimming.
