Gotta pay to play.
The Stasi never approached what the US government does today...literally. They were limited to what could be photographed, taper recorded, transcribed, monitored.
These SOBs collect literally every communication sent, on everybody. It will all be stored, and then pulled out when someone needs to be slapped back into line.
The Marshals should be ashamed. They had a grand tradition in America. Sad to see them become part of State Security.
