#1 I miss the party lines of the old days. There were 4 other homes on our line when I was kid. You would get a call and you knew a bored house wife or two were listening to your conversation.

#4 You would get a call and you knew a bored house wife or two were listening to your conversation.

Now we have a bunch of bored NSA folks in curlers performing that function.

#6 I am sure that NSA has AI filtering the raw communication and then turning over interesting conversations to bored NSA staffers in curlers.

Which probably ignores the code that the deep state communicates with itself in plain sight.
