Because, to be as simple as possible, I want to play games like Halo, even if it means that my average and legal lifestyle isn't private. Our phones and internet have been tapped for years. So really, how much control do you really have by boycotting a video game console? Apple is also in colaboration with the NSA you know.

Yeah i know that about Apple and i dont touch their products, but i get it you are willing to sacrifice some of your freedoms for games and you know what? im cool with that and I get it. 
But with the internet and phones that is also very wrong i think what im getting at with my dissagreement with you that you shouldn't spy on millions of people to stop a few criminals or terrorists.

You don't touch Apple, but hundreds of millions do.Your last line is fair enough. It really depends on ones stance of "the greater good". Its controversial forusre, it depends on idealism, whether you have been personally affected by terrorism, etc. Its clearly complicated.

Glad we came to a understanding.
