Yeah it's a drag to live in a police state, especially in the land of the free and the home of the brave, but let's look at the upside to this American Surveillance State. Let's think of it as a big comfy cloud, a cloud that knows all about us, who's been naughty and nice, that can help us recall all those pesky details we may have lost track of.
Maybe they could just make it a little more user friendly-
Like you could call a friendly NSA phone agent, and ask:
"Uh, OK, like I was arguing with my old lady on the phone last night, and I said 'Billy Gibbons can kick Clapton's ass any ole day', and now she's saying I said Billy is jealous of Clapton, so, like, can you review the tapes so I can tell her she's full of s__t?"
or:
"Um, hello Mr NSA specialist , I lost this really amazing photo of my awesome orange and whir kitty, and she ran away last night, and I really need that photo so I can make a lost kitty poster, do you think you could send me a copy?"
The possibilities are endless. Everything you ever thought you've lost track of or misplaced, every lost nuance in a heated conversation, every movement you've ever made, could now be returned to you, with the new user-friendly NSA "we've got your back" info retrieval service.
Like Siri-US-ly!
