ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

SORM

SORM or System for Operative Investigative Activities is like a super spy tool that the government uses to keep an eye on people they think are doing bad things.

Think of SORM as a big set of eyes and ears that can watch and listen to everything you do and say online. It's like when you play hide-and-seek and the person who's "it" waits and listens for you to make a sound so they can find you.

SORM is used to listen to phone calls, read messages, and other things that people do online. It's all to try and catch the bad guys and stop them from doing bad things.

Of course, not everyone likes SORM because they think it's a bit too nosy and can be used to spy on innocent people too. It's like someone peeking through your curtains when you're not doing anything wrong.

So, in summary, SORM is like a big spying tool that the government uses to listen and watch people online to catch bad guys.
