          I take issue only with “- People doing illegal things” because that argument has been used over and over to rape our privacy to death. Think “If you’ve done nothing wrong you’ve got nothing to hide” mindset.

          I don’t have a problem with “- Monopoly doing illegal things”. Monopoly is not a person.

        We already know they do that. If they can’t directly for any legal reason that they don’t want to admit violating, they’ll just have one of our allies do it for them via their foreign intelligence sevices. Snowden gave us the proof of that a decade ago.

        Neither private companies nor the government should be collecting data from/about citizens without probable cause and due process.

        That could all be codified into the regulations that classify internet as a public infrastructure service.

        You do realize they have a law that requires the phone companies to run a phone line no matter where you build in the USA right? Requiring the ISPs to uphold stipulations like this is a good thing.

        Also, NSA…
