I think it's time to also highlight the fact that people enabled the NSA to do these things. A lot of them engineers. In some cases I'm sure the ones building the stuff didn't or couldn't see the end goal. But I guess there have been many who HAVE suspected or known about the use-cases of the products/software that they have been a part of making. This scares me, it is time that engineers take some moral responsibility. Maybe some course in ethical decision making wouldn't hurt to include in engineering colleges?
(Note: All fields should take moral responsibility, but engineers seem to be worse than a lot of others.)
