Democrats suck on many issues, but mostly they act like Republican Lite. Internet privacy, at least in terms of private industry, is one thing they're obviously better on. Of course, they aren't against the NSA looking at your shit, but at least under democratic rule you wouldn't be at risk of having your internet history leaked to your employer.

I don't think better. Obama had 8 years, 2 of which he had a majority and he could have passed roles to entrench privacy Rights online. Instead he did nothing and appointed Wheeler (who ended up being pretty good, but was a board member of Comcast for years).

Obama at least was a strong defender of net neutrality. Again, I have very little love for Democrats, but the Republicans seem to be hellbent on ruining the internet.

Democrats have already been spying on us for over a decade, just look at google and facebook.
