THERE’S A BIT of a surveillance scandal on at the moment.

If you haven’t been following it, it essentially means that Barack Obama is checking your email.*

Luckily, this Tumblr has arrived to document how he does this. Here are a few examples:

1. Obama checking the email where you lied to your mother about the reason you couldn’t go home for Sunday dinner

2. Obama checking the soppy emails you sent when you were first together with your girlfriend
