What about it? How will recording and data mining text messages fix that problem?

Furthermore, if the government has already screwed up their systems and made them publicly available in the first place, how can you be so sure they'll competently implement their surveillance systems?

Because for every spy program we know about, how many are out there that we don't know about?

Will an infinite number of spy programs solve the problem of the government putting critical infrastructure on the internet?
