        Our government doesn't even shrug, though, does it? It's up to us to embrace technical solutions to protect our privacy.

        .@Snowden The government kills people based on metadata. They conveniently forget to talk about how much metadata reveals about someone.

        Except for what this paper calls the "ground truth": how does NSA match the data to a name? Isn't pseudonymous cell safe?
