Today, my long distance boyfriend told me no more nude pictures or sexting, as he's afraid the government will steal it all. FML

Hey guys, OP here. While I don't doubt that they are in fact kept on record somewhere, I DO doubt that they would use them for some sort of super weapon like he was implying. My boyfriend grew up in a bad home and has anxiety and paranoia like you wouldn't believe, so he probably heard something in his computer class and blew it way out of proportion. Again. This is just the latest strange thing he's doing. At one point he wanted us to invest in a bunker. I'm 20 and he's 19, so we're both of age, and we've been dating for 2 years, but we live in different timezones. He's a college student and I don't make very much so it's hard for us to pay to meet up, so sexting is usually all we've got. I prefer skype, since my phone is ancient and doesn't have any of these fancy new-fangled apps, but I was laptopless for the night, which is why I texted him asking and got that in response. I know for a 100% fact that he is not cheating on me. He wouldn't be able to pull it off. Like I said, anxiety and paranoia. He once apologized to me in panic over having a crush on a celebrity, thinking that was just as bad as cheating. In any case, when he isn't at school, he's on skype and steam with me. And for those saying to send them to you, shame on you.

Well from what I've heard is that in canada phone companies keep texts for 1 year on their servers. It's a reason I never sext over text messages. There's apps for that stuff now anyways.

wait. that you know? Heart of the matter is, don't get it on electronic media, well since NSAs recording even when it's off, just don't do ANYTHING!

Cheney and Bush, but mostly Cheney, are responsible for the program.

I always wanted to be a part of the government, so many parties.

I don't believe that here's my number 651.........

Seriously I can see what he's afraid of. the NSA is upping their game.

If you send a text message in the USA they always keep it on record so they can look anyone up and see everything they have ever sent.

I don't think the NSA is in the business of leaking nude or risky sexts, but your boyfriend is correct.
