Edward Snowden - On Obama's Changes to NSA Phone Metadata Collection lyrics

I believed that if the NSA's unconstitutional ma** surveillance of Americans was known, it would not survive the scrutiny of the courts, the Congress, and the people. The very first open and adversarial court to ever judge these programs has now declared them 'Orwellian' and 'likely unconstitutional.' In the USA FREEDOM Act, Congress is considering historic, albeit incomplete reforms. And President Obama has now confirmed that these ma** surveillance programs, kept secret from the public and defended out of reflex rather than reason, are in fact unnecessary and should be ended. This is a turning point, and it marks the beginning of a new effort to reclaim our rights from the NSA and restore the public's seat at the table of government.
