The government tells us that they are protecting us from terrorists by collecting data on us. According to Edward Snowden that is not the case. In 2013 Snowden uncovered some highly classified documents about the united states government and how they were collecting data on their own people and invading their privacy.

As you can see the image above shows a man listening to two people's conversation and on the side of the phone you can the american flag. This image is showing a presentation of how the government listens to our conversation as we speak.

The government also watch things like google to keep track of what we are doing and what we watch this is also ways for them to collect data on us. As you know google is well known internet space and since it is mainly used for everything the government saw that it would be a great idea to take over google and collect and access people's privacy.
In my opinion I think it wrong and awfully invasive that the government would collect every information on their own people even when they have no criminal record or any possibility of being a threat to the government.
This is extremely obscured and the government should not be this invasive unless the person has a criminal record that shows that they are a threat to the government. I also think that if they are to check our privacy they should be limited to certain extent that would not have people trying to hide what they are doing.
From my experience every time i'm on amazon looking up something maybe like a shirt or shoe then after I exit the app or the website I would start getting ads about what I looked up. This shows that the government is monitoring our phones and our computer it also shows the violation of our privacy.
I cannot quite relate to the crucible but I can say that their government was unfairly calling their own people witches which shoes that they didn't trust their own people kind of how our government is invading our privacy by not trusting their own people.
I agree with your blog. I feel as though the government has no right to invade our privacy as citizens. They're essentially make accusations that we, the people, are a threat to our own nation. Despite having no criminal history, the government should't be able to spy on us. Good work!

ReplyDeleteI think Edward Snowden did the right thing by letting the world know! The government has no right to spy on us and our personal lives, if someone is a SUSPECT than that is more understandable but a regular civilian or a 8 year old kid?? Come on now this is just ridiculous.
