There was a Wall Street Journal story about how the Chinese had hacked into the Verizon and AT&T networks. Okay. You probably didn't see the story. It didn't make a whole lot of waves.

So like, you know, we're worried about the civil libertarian element of that, and rightfully so. Like, I don't want American citizens to be spied on. (27:29–27:38)
