If the whole programm were shot down, this would be against the law of nature of investigation! What to do with the whole section and it's equipement?
In times of depression! Thousands of workplaces will be lost, if the section is closed! Not only the agents, engineers and the whole IT company!
If they have no job the reataurant, wellness center, barber shop and many other go down to bankruptcy.
All the Hi-Tec - made in USA ??`Begging ex-agents in the streets, half the state depopulated, savaged golf courses!
This will be real depression!
Any loss of workplaces in security sector will endanger the whole land and thereover the beeing of western civilization!
Asking for lower the spy rate ...

i have absolutely nothing to hide......lol-.....that said though- i really don't appreciate the government crawling up my azz either- if that makes me a terrorist? so be it-it's your opinion
then ya have to wonder about all the tricky business that goes on behind closed doors- too-governments have big secrets- and they all aren't in the interests of national security either- business run off of big secrets- they have a right to privacy and i don't-?- not so sure about that- a tough pill to swallow

if i were to make a snap decision about you? i might look into getting that paranoia problem checked- honest citizens paying for protection from criminals? hmmmmm- makes no sense to me- i don't feel that giving up my rights for any protection-from threats- real or imagined is worth the giving up of my rights to privacy

Not really!

I know, that anyone may think more about the problem, if I use the estimated justifications and results instead a poor comment.
