Comments

If you mean to suggest that the reason for the NSA is for the US government to act as an authoritarian regime (presumably meaning something like a totalitarian state or dictatorship or tyranny), why don't you just say so? And if you don't mean to suggest it, then what is the meaning of your purported correlation?

I don't; to negate the position that the existence of communication surveillance agencies can be considered both beneficial and necessary for an arbitrary population by assumption.
