I feel like American's level of trust is the reason we won't see a significant level of change in the NSA's data mining protocols for a long time. Most people don't understand how damaging some of the information the government is collecting on them can be if used for the wrong reasons. They assume they don't have anything to hide from the government because they haven't done anything wrong. In Europe, they have laws protecting internet privacy, and over here they're being taken away.
