Oh dear, now everyone will know that I was bitching about my brother last November

what?

Caught out Zee.

If they've read my text messages they will no longer have an arse, because reading them would have bored it off.

Sign of the Times.

Omfg they must have read my plans to bomb the London eye!!! What will I do!??

But no, why complain if you have nothing to hide?

I doubt anyone cares about my texts about my awkward life to friends :joker:

7/7 London was not stopped.
by the time they make sense of things it all over



This is about Laws
America is Breaking Laws
by doing this covert.

The President claims he does not know
what is going on?

maybe you didn't read the article...GCHQ is happily using the American database for their own purposes. GCHQ is allowed access to the database so that they can spy on British subjects, without actually having to spy on British subjects. Stop trying to blame America for everything and worry about your own GCHQ, which are the ones getting around laws by spying on their own subjects using the American database.

The only reason Britain is allowing America to spy on British subjects, is because they can't legally do it themselves, so they allow America to do it. Then America gives them permission to see all of the data they collect, so technically Britain isn't spying on it's own subjects. ...but they really are. They are just using the NSA as a cover because it's illegal for them to do it themselves. The GCHQ are still getting the same information on British subjects they want, without having to do it themselves.

The scandal is that your government is allowing a foreign government to spy on you because they really want to spy on you, but they think this is a legal loop hole because they aren't legally able to spy on you. As long as they use the Americans to spy on you then they aren't spying on you.

I wonder if I'm on a database because I used the word bomb in a text to my dad once

yes that one incident sadly wasn't stopped.

but what about every day since then?

don't you think things are being done every single day? maybe every hour of the day?

oh god if they accused you by how often you talk about bombs, i'd be arrested and put in a straight jacket by now hahaha

This doesn't surprise me at all, I doubt anything will surprise me any more when it comes to the NSA.

bitches that's my network

Disgraceful!

This 'special relationship' is obviously a load of bull****.
