Thinking that you can hide from it is absurd. Your country has been spying on you for decades. The Internet and phones are tapped. That game is so so so over and has been for a long time. I'd rather live free and deal with the consequences than hide in my basement with a tinfoil hat on. In fact, I was fired this year for my political views. Got doxxed at work. Now I'm somewhere better. Sometimes it's for the best.
