Encrypt all the things!

Shit, I really feel sorry for the NSA workers who have to read all this stuff. I know it's a massive privacy scandal but seriously, the idea of reading people's email just sounds like some form of Kafka-esque torture.

Masses of data, I'd imagine yes, but getting into people's lives through their email is....quite the rabbit hole. I had a mate at uni who was a "securities expert" in his spare time and at times he'd show me these lists or email addresses and passwords, thousands of them. I got sucked in and I remember one email address distinctly. It was a woman from Oklahoma and it was basically her whole life (family names, dates, schedule, events, job moves, doctors apps, even a security code to her friends house) it was unreal. It was at that point where my curiously was piqued and at the same time I tasted a distinct flavour that I was violating something i shouldn't.

I stopped.
The kicker to all of this. The passwords. That particular woman's was password12345
