US Spying on Europe

I'm hopeful that onion routing and built in better network encryption can thwart massive data collection, like PRISM. Yes, given enough time they could hack, and decrypt some, but it would need to be targeted. And, targeted hopefully means, probable cause, court order, and for foreign surveillance FISA oversight.

Of course, it means a whole new generation of apps built on something other than SSL, and probably new network hardware where the government has built holes. It might take at least a decade to change, if anyone really cared about privacy.
