watch this video interviewing people at the portland protests
notice how they are all young, some even sound like children, probably highschoolers
this is why the government cares what apps kids use
people use facebook for "grassroots organizing" at protests, which means the govt has direct access to everyone's "secret plans"
when those conversations happen on social media networks owned overseas, the govt can't monitor it in the same way
do you remember when occupy wallstreet happened how many people were using facebook groups to orgranize it?
