Or how they then nationalized the company that has access to all the iCloud encryption keys for accessing Apple user messages, pictures, videos, files, etc. at rest:

Yikes.

This is concerning but not surprising. After the Snowden leaks, a buddy of mine kept telling me that it was the tip of tmthe iceberg, that the private sector was even more dangerous than prism. I guess this is what he was talking about.

Google's sensorvault keeps track of hundreds of millions phone's location data for the past TEN YEARS and share those data with police.

Which is only shared when a court-ordered subpoenaed is presented for the individual's data by the U.S. Government. If Google didn't comply then we would be complaining how they think they are above the law.
