Laws change. Prior to Prohibition it would have been legal to drink  
alcohol in the United States. The reason Big Brother is bad is not  
always for the laws you are breaking today, but for the laws that  
have not yet been written that you may be held accountable for  
tomorrow. There are reasons that we in the U.S. have rules around  
wire taps and other information gathering. I do not want to live in a  
prison state.
