and producer martin smith joins us now.uestion i keep asking is what information about our personal lives does the government have that companies like google and facebook and others don't already have? aren't they just as invasive? so how can we force the nsa to stop hacking into our lives if we allow others to do the very same thing. >> that's the right question. as long as you allow companies, internet companies to collect all this information, it can fall into the hands of the government. there's something called third party doctrine where when you give up your information and give it to yahoo! or microsoft to deliver, it's like you sent a postcard. the law allows the government to look in on this just as it allows these companies to surveil you. >> you have a fascinating moment in this piece where california state legislator is recalling a conversation she had with the founders of google about privacy. let's take a look. >> senator, how would you feel if a robot went into your home and read your diary and read your fina
