Miss USA Runner-Up Praises NSA Surveillance: ‘I’d Rather Someone Track My Phone…’
Source: Mediaite
<snip>
Pageant judge Wendie Malick asked the eventual runner-up whether the government tracking of phone records constitutes “an invasion of privacy or [is] necessary to keep our country safe?”
“It’s sad that if we go to the movies, or to the airport, or even to the mall, that we have to worry about our safety,” McCord replied. “I would rather someone track my phone messages and feel safe wherever I go than feel like they’re encroaching on my privacy.”
