This is what really bothers me about the NSA's invasion into my privacy.
Taxpayers pay for the NSA to spy on us! In the name of "security." We, the taxpayers, pay for great warehouses full of servers that eat electricity and give off a lot of heat. Instead of using that heat to run turbines and produce secondary electricity, No! they burn more electricity running air conditioners on our dime to keep those giant warehouses cool enough so that they can store every last little bit of data about all of us. Not in my name!
The first automated data system "was the IBM punch card and card sorting system-a precursor to the computer. IBM, primarily through its German subsidiary, made Hitler's program of Jewish destruction a technologic mission the company pursued with chilling success. IBM Germany, using its own staff and equipment, designed, executed, and supplied the indispensable technologic assistance Hitler's Third Reich needed to accomplish what had never been done before-the automation of human destruction."
Although the German subsidiary used their own equipment, IBM USA retained the patent on the punch card. IBM violated the prohibition of trade with Germany by supplying Hitler with punch cards throughout the Holocaust.

For those who thirst for power and control, information is key. I presume the only reason the NSA wants all that information is for power and control. And they charge us for it!
