Why are there no protests over current events like there were during the Vietnam war?
There was a draft during the Vietnam war, which meant someone could be forced to go to war, and maybe die, so you had a good reason to protest. Having your emails stored or read by someone has no actual "feeling" to you, not like "Oh no, I might get drafted and killed".
