Google by itself is much worse than NSA. At least, NSA does not screw up the industry and does not try to destroy local economies. I'm surprised there's not a lot of public backslash against Google and their employees.
Another obligatory NSA joke.
I too dislike these NSA jokes, and the accompanying conspiracy theories, mine included. Too bad the actions of the NSA and those of the Five Fingers have created this mistrust and uncertainty. So instead of calling them all out on behalf of the OP, and belittling them, you can recognize that at some level his point is valid and just leave it at that.
