Carey: Activists say the solution is to encourage everyone, companies and individuals to install software that will protect privacy and make it more difficult for agencies like the NSA to read e-mail. Higgins: On the one end, we push back against what we call securitynihilism but there is nothing that you can do. On the other hand, when someone says that they’ve devised a system that's completely NSA proof, you can tell that they probably don't know what their talking about. Carey: The likely result from increased user security, activists say, is an internet that's more difficult and more expensive for the NSA to monitor. The Reset the Net Movement is scheduled for Thursday. so look for websites to post messages in a virtual protest of the NSA. But one of the companies we spoke to today said this campaign is about more than just the collection of data it's about making the internet more secure so people feel comfortable to continue innovating.
