"People all over the world are realizing that these programs don't make us more safe. They hurt our economy. They hurt our country. They limit our ability to think, and live, and be creative. To have relationships. To associate freely. And they're going, "This doesn't make us more safe, this makes us less safe. It puts us at risk of coming into conflict with our own government." And there's a far cry, between legal programs, legitimate spying, legitimate law enforcement, where it's targeted, it's based on reasonable suspicion, individualized suspicion, and warranted action, and sort of dragnet mass surveillance that puts entire populations, under sort of an eye that sees everything, even when it's not needed!"
