The Electronic Communications Privacy Act, huh? Sounds like the kind of thing that's about as useful as a screen door on a submarine when it comes to protecting our privacy. But hey, at least it's a better option than the 'Computer Fraud and Abuse Act' – that one just sounds like a bad joke.

Option A? Really? I thought the Wiretap Act was the one that let the FBI tap into our internet traffic. Maybe the government's just gotten better at keeping their dirty little secrets.

Ah, the old 'which law lets the government snoop on us' question. I'm feeling option A – the one that sounds the most like something out of a spy movie.

Yeah, it's scary how much power the government has when it comes to surveillance.

I don't trust any of these laws, they all seem like they could be used to invade our privacy.

I'm not sure, but option D also sounds like it could be used for that purpose.

I think it's option A too, it sounds like it would give the FBI the power to do that.

Hmm, the Economic Espionage Act? That's a bold choice, but I'm not convinced. Gotta go with the classic Electronic Communications Privacy Act on this one.

Ooh, this is a juicy one! I bet the FBI has been using those National Security Letters to spy on us all along. Option A is the way to go, for sure.

This is a tricky one, but I think the Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986 is the correct answer. It's all about the government snooping on our online activities, right?
