There are very few government checks on what America’s sweeping surveillance programs are capable of doing. John Oliver sits down with Edward Snowden to discuss the NSA, the balance between privacy and security, and dick-pics. In the course of the interview, John Oliver uses political satire (exaggeration, sarcasm, and profanity) to make the point clear that Americans certainly do care about the issue of privacy, but only when it selfishly pertains to them and their "dick-pics".
Yes, I'm glad to see some solid controversy. Surveillance has been such a big issue since 9/11, but has it go too far?
