How The NSA Spies On You

the same as google, collects and organises data. It would be easier for you to look through every website listed in google, than it would be for the NSA to assign a person to monitor another citizen. If an average nsa worker does 8 hours a day, and has an hour for lunch, it would take them say 1 hour to make a decision on all your data, then they move onto the next person. They probably get griefed by their manager, about not meeting their productivity targets too.

That NSA worker then leaves work, and buys a car, gets a mortgage and has children. There is no "all seeing single eye"

Its merely another corporation drowning in excess amounts of data.

If the amount of people who complained about NSA actually bothered to speak to their neighbours, and find out what they do for a living, and report any terrorists directly to the government then they wouldn't need to collect everyones data.

Most people are always complaining about the proverbial "big brother " when the reality is that only younger brothers and sisters actually a right to complain about their big brother.

Note: When I say "US" here, I don't mean all people of america. We have to accept that there are simply a lot of corporate people with corporate interests. There hasn't been a single war which wasn't about some sort of control or profit. Most of the time it was for the preservation of the petro dollar (for example, africa, syria, etc.)

You want people to start turning each other in??
That is the WORST solution I've heard to this yet.

In fact, it's worse than the NSA mining data cuz it means creating suspects out of innocent people all over the place.

The fact that they have a default set-up through all current communications technology to flick a switch, as it were, and collect/track all your info without probable cause or due process, is the all seeing eye. Whenever they want, they can monitor you with no legal or constitutional process, and the goal is not to track "terrorists" but to control the entire population, though fear of the surveillance apparatus, and the guns behind them.
