If they put cameras in your bathroom and you are not aware, your privacy wasn’t violated.

This was the Chairman of the US Intelligence Committee

    It’s not a crime if it’s not discovered?

    Someone ought to tell his wife to get STI tests done pronto.

      To a Republican? The answer is a resounding yes!

      And if it is discovered, it is the fault of the person discovering obviously.

    This is the type of motherfucker to say:

    “Well I raped you while you were drunk asleep, and you didn’t wake up, so was it really rape?”

    If they put cameras in your bathroom and you are not aware, your privacy wasn’t violated.

    There’s a reason they own all the major operating systems, messaging apps, social media platforms, cloud infrastructure and spy agencies.

    There’s always going to be some deliberate loopholes and exploits in or between the supply-chain to get to you when you’re inside their ecosystem.

    But some companies promise you’re “secure” and “private” if you use one of their expensive, shiny offerings. They swear it on their marketing, ads and PR releases.

    It’s that comfy feels of paying more for a false sense of privacy and security that matters.

    tldr; Use Linux and open source.

      It’s much easier to just attack the statement with NO, that is in fact not how the human right to privacy works. It is just misconduct, it is just extreme ignorance, a lack of knowledge about the things that your country put the person in charge of.

    If I kill someone without them noticing I would not be a murderer by that logic.

    “Congressman, here is a supercut of every time you’ve taken a shit in the last five years. I’ve been posting updates on an invite-only website. Every member of your staff is in there, and they LOVE seeing each pained expression you make. But you didn’t know, so I didn’t violate your privacy.”
