&quot; to quit being too demanding and start acting like just another client.&quot;<p>Uhm, intelligence agencies are &#x27;not just another client&#x27;.<p>Do any of you have any concept of duty, service, community?<p>You do realize that they are serving a cause much greater than you or I, and certainly Twitter, for that matter?<p>You do realize that Twitter is a primary propaganda and recruitment tool for some very, very nefarious people?<p>Of course the debate regarding the level of privacy we ought to have, and what amounts to government overreach must be had, and likely will never cease, but at the same time, this is a serious business. Lives are literally at stake.<p>&quot;Plus, being involved with the government usually involves all kinds of regulatory nonsense and (sometimes) having their personnel on premises for whatever reason.&quot;<p>God forbid that other people have a responsibilities much greater than themselves, which doesn&#x27;t involve making money?<p>I&#x27;m not so naive to suggest that government requests may be burdensome, and on occasion due to ill motives, but I suggest that the premise of your statement lacks perspective.<p>In this particular case, it would seem that the government should at the very least have access to public Tweets, this would be arguably one of the least intrusive measures they could make, after all, a Tweet by you, I, or an ISIS member is definitely &#x27;public domain&#x27; in every sense of the term.<p>I wish there were more details.
