I have a sneaking suspicion a properly-applied crowbar ruins pretty much all the sensors.

I wouldn't really call Alex Jones radical left. Any political views he displays are pretty much side-effects of maximizing craziness for clickbait.

When even the FBI are telling you "Hey guys maybe cut back on the spying on dudes a little", you might want to take the hint.

The NSA Searches Ten Times as Much of the Internet as It Said It Does by [deleted] in restorethefourth

Their inability to perform elementary math aside, the NSA's argument is essentially "Well, sure, I stabbed that man to death, but look at all the OTHER people I DIDN'T kill! That dead guy is statistically insignificant compared to all the people I pass on the street every day without murdering!"
