Remember last year? Edward Snowden! NSA! Shock! Horror! Dismay!Looking back I'm amazed we all seemed so surprised. Over the last decade, pretty much every arm of American authority invoked "homeland security" as an excuse to acquire boatloads of new technology, and used it to help expand their power and authority to unprecedented levels. There is nothing at all exceptional about the NSA's massive overreach. It was only keeping up with the Joneses -- FBI, DEA, Border Patrol, police forces everywhere -- who have all been busy doing exactly the same thing.
