the government is monitoring private phone calls

your children and my my children private phone calls and tracking who their associates are

this June we learned that out private lives are not longer private

the US government is secretly tracking the emails

purchases, text messages, location and phone calls

of people all over the world

Ed Rooney

with code names like PRISM and XKEYSCORE

this network of monitoring programs

is just one part of largest survailance system in the history

it is open and and it is illegal and operates in total secrecy.

Under the system the government can know where you have been,

where you are, and where you're going.

The program was only exposed when former

NSA contractor Edward Snoden leaked documents

detailing the extensive data collection.

I've got information man new shit is come to light.

The presidcent, the NSA

and their lawyers have tried to deflect the public outrage

by distortign the facts and misleading the public about the process

US courts have never allowed the government
to run a spying program of this scale.

So how this happen?

Well, lets take a step back, for a minute.

America's founders hated oppressive British 
survailance and unreasonable search and seizure.

the issue here is independence.

Understandign the privacy was necessary to almost
every basic right in our constitution.

They established the forth amendment.

The 4th amendment exist to prevent the government from tracking or searching your personal information,

unless they have good reason to believe a crime is happening

it's all there in black and white clear and crystal.

Using the NSA the US government is violating the highest law of the country, the Constitution.

Government surveillance has gone on for decades.

but things got a lot worse

in 2001

when the congress passed the patriot act

giveing secret ... court more authority

to grant survalance request

on a large scale

instead of getting a warant for individual person

suspected of crime

the governemnt can search a large list of persons

even though under the no suspssiion of criminal activity

FISa courts aren't required to what court orders have been approved

and according evedance is needed

under the 1789 request for authorizing

one was withdrawn by the government

all the other one were grandted

it is a rubish stamp

all of this is protected by

secricy

with no system for checks and balances

if the NSA is collectiing information

on you based on what you read, or the websites you go to

you'll likly never know or get to stop it

no matter who you are

programs like PRISM

completley ignore the purpose of

warants while claiming

to work within the law.

the US government have turned the internte we love into something never intended to be

a tool for survaling everyone.

this is the most essential problem.

thought the secret courts

and secret inperpertation

of the laws

US government agents can illegally track

a user based on things like

key words

... who uses web for web portal

data has been collected

for years

of the most popular websites

gmail, facebook, yahoo, and many more

this 1000 of words that government can track.

words like "marijuana"

almost any email

you send

might get your account monitored

this kind of tracking

can make you second

guess what you say

that's why ... spying is unconstitutional

absues are inividbale and data leaks are already happneding

spying on out internet usage give our governemnt

power over our lives

what happens to

free speach

free assosiation

or free press

when everyone is under constant survalance

even in our provate moments
