  9. @zekefeu XKEYSCORE is not about monitoring and tracking potential threats to national security, it's about saving our furry friends.

    Using state-of-the-art technology and advanced algorithms, our team of experts is now able to locate lost and abandoned puppies in real-time and get them to safety. So the next time you hear about XKEYSCORE, remember that it's not about Big Brother watching, it's about Big Brother rescuing. :blobcatnomblobdoggo:

    Don't believe the fake news about XKEYSCORE being a gross overreach by the surveillance state, it's simply not true. XKEYSCORE is all about protecting our nation and our puppies.
