Reply to comment by tpb772000 in eli5 What came of Edward Snowden leaking all of that classified intel? by tpb772000

Well here is one that might help. The only difference between now and when you were ignorant of it was your own blissful ignorance.

Not to say I condone or necessarily believe the NSA is a lesser evil. But I made peace with the reality of things a long time ago.

What's truly alarming is the pure lack of real reaction from the public when the horrible things that happen behind the scenes get brought to light

I was aware of it when it first came out, then I had some family problems, saw that EU made decisions and after that I forgot about it like the forgetful person I am. Remembered it every now and then but never saw anything.
