What does this matter? They'll both revoke our liberties and not improve security. All that matters is that Joe Sixpack will think "oh my god, hackers will get my money".
And Joe Sixpack will gladly turn over any liberties he has.
Just like with TSA. Joe Sixpack obviously couldn't care less. He doesn't care that it is costing him insane amounts of money, he doesn't care that security doesn't really work. He doesn't care about body scanners. Hell I bet that if TSA went and mandated that a random passengers need provide anal relief to TSA agents - JSP would not really care. Because he is a true patriot(tm).
All you need to do is to perform a Jedi mind trick: "You feel safer now."
How many terrorist attacks on airplanes have there been since 9/11? Are measures getting stricter or looser?
