        See, I figure this has been a thing the government did just as soon as they figured out how to do it.

        I'd have to look back but my memory tells me this is not new. When the country was in 9-11 furor, too.

        wouldn't a sticker with "You are being spied on" be just as accurate? @Snowden

        Not everyone is going to go without a phone, so I don't think it's bad to promote defense.

        Perhaps I spoke to soon about Canadian government corruption being merely of the petty theft variety. Disheartening.
