Comments on 2 year Snowden anniversary

“Two years after the Snowden leaks, it’s clear that the vast majority of the IT security community doesn’t believe that the level of government surveillance has changed. What has changed is peoples’ views towards NSA surveillance. Many people suspected back in 2013 that there was a large-scale surveillance program in place, but the Snowden revelations started a national debate about privacy and security. If the recently passed legislation is any indication, people are demanding greater privacy and less government surveillance now than they did two years ago.”
