Revoking the freedoms of the American People

This is yet another step towards revoking the freedoms of the American people. You can't do this, you can't say that, and now your VOIP phone could be tapped. Heaven forbid you have a conversation with someone the government can't hear. What's next? Requiring all new home construction to have micphones installed in it so the government can hear what you say in your home 24/7.
