The Israeli satirical web site Latma (Latma.co.il) had it right when it
“reported” a few weeks ago that “Americans are very upset to learn that
the government has been spying on their private lives, even before they
have a chance to post about it on Facebook.” There is something bizarre
about a nation of emotional exhibitionists baring their every secret
(and more) in the public domain, and then griping about a loss of
privacy. Of course, the government has no right to intrude, and every
American possesses a constitutional right to make an absolute fool of
himself/herself by reporting on the inanities of their lives and sharing
every stray, incomplete thought in incomplete and ungrammatical
sentences. But a little self-awareness is also appropriate.
