> how much they’re pissing everyone

I am afraid that it is not even a significant portion of the population that is pissed.

If it was, then Snowden leaks wouldn't have been almost forgotten in 5-6 years. People seem to have accepted governments can do whatever they want without any consequences.

Edit: Wanted to clarify that I am not even talking about the US, as part of the leaks it was revealed that NSA was listening to Angela Merkel's Phone. Germany has already forgotten that it seems.

With all due respect: I’m not sure average people care. The only people I know who talk about it also read this site religiously.

I don’t say it to be rude, but it’s similar to my coastal liberal friends thinking their bubble opinion applies in Ohio.

If I'm ever sent a resume that lists employment at the CIA, NSA or DOJ, it's going straight into the circular file. Red flag that they lack morals.

Since the CIA won't allow past employees to list their work experience, their taint has leaked onto anyone ever employed by the State Dept or govt contractors as well.

For very small values of 'everyone'.
