If I don’t want to be spied on by the US I would have to leave the country, which is not exactly an option. Then I would have to determine a country that does not spy on its citizens or is otherwise not spied on heavily by another country. I’d be very curious with that list looks like. I imagine it’s very small, and very undesirable.

I use a lot of digital tools to protect my privacy and have fought for digital privacy rights directly. Don’t lecture me please.

Where is this magical land you live?

Honestly I’m just getting tired of discussions where people lecture me about “just taking it laying down“ as if somehow I have the ability to end the US surveillance state or otherwise opt out of it. I have limited options, as do all of us. I am acknowledging reality, not saying I endorse it or don’t even push back where I can. These kinds of comments are flippant and annoying.

TL;DR: zero isn’t a real option today so don’t act like it is.

Ofc zero is an option, we just have to have the conversion to start the process

If that’s your idea of a “conversation” you need to reevaluate your tone and stop levying accusations.
