The NSA is forbidden to 'target' American citizens, green-card holders or companies for surveillance without an individual warrant from a judge.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
NSA surveillance is a complex subject - legally, technically and operationally.
The NSA has the greatest surveillance capabilities in American history... The real problem is that they're using these capabilities to make us vulnerable.
Laws and regulations are supposed to restrict the kind of surveillance governments do. In fact, the U.S. government is quite restricted in what kind of surveillance they can do on U.S. citizens. The problem is that 96 percent of the planet is not U.S. citizens.
What I said was, the NSA does not voyeuristically pore through U.S. citizens' e-mails. I stand by that.
Our government should not be spying on the electronic communications of American citizens. Nor should our iPhones or Android devices be subject to unreasonable searches and seizures.
The NSA routinely lies in response to congressional inquiries about the scope of surveillance in America.
The last thing the Department of Homeland Security is about is infringing on anybody's constitutionally protected rights.
The Supreme Court must strike down the government's illegal spying program as a violation of our Fourth Amendment right to privacy.
Right now, American law bars the admission of aliens suspected of terrorist activity - but not of terrorist sympathies.
I'm not against the NSA. I'm not against spying; I'm not against looking at phone records.
