I think the government should be working with ISPs to incorporate some monitoring for illegal activity and they should have a method of gaining access through the ISP for personal access to users' accounts to prevent crime but having a giant database of saved data/communications from everybody is a joke - part of why I fucking hate google, it's just a matter of time before the government beats those nerds up and takes the key.

This could be done by simply screening keywords or sites, ie ("how to make a bomb") and logging this data.

One way or the other, somebody is going to be controlling the data passed through the internet - would you rather have everything logged or just relevant information towards crime fighting - which is the catalyst being used to gather this information.

Well - I'd rather they have transparent and regulated reasons for interference than just controlling everything and giving citizens the middle finger - which is what is currently happening

A secretive U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration unit is funneling information from intelligence intercepts, wiretaps, informants and a massive database of telephone records to authorities across the nation to help them launch criminal investigations of Americans.

Although these cases rarely involve national security issues, documents reviewed by Reuters show that law enforcement agents have been directed to conceal how such investigations truly begin - not only from defense lawyers but also sometimes from prosecutors and judges. The undated documents show that federal agents are trained to "recreate" the investigative trail to effectively cover up where the information originated, a practice that some experts say violates a defendant's Constitutional right to a fair trial. If defendants don't know how an investigation began, they cannot know to ask to review potential sources of exculpatory evidence - information that could reveal entrapment, mistakes or biased witnesses.

"I have never heard of anything like this at all," said Nancy Gertner, a Harvard Law School professor who served as a federal judge from 1994 to 2011. Gertner and other legal experts said the program sounds more troubling than recent disclosures that the National Security Agency has been collecting domestic phone records. The NSA effort is geared toward stopping terrorists; the DEA program targets common criminals, primarily drug dealers. "It is one thing to create special rules for national security," Gertner said. "Ordinary crime is entirely different. It sounds like they are phonying up investigations."

Two senior DEA officials defended the program, and said trying to "recreate" an investigative trail is not only legal but a technique that is used almost daily.

"That's outrageous," said Tampa attorney James Felman, a vice chairman of the criminal justice section of the American Bar Association. "It strikes me as indefensible." Lawrence Lustberg, a New Jersey defense lawyer, said any systematic government effort to conceal the circumstances under which cases begin "would not only be alarming but pretty blatantly unconstitutional."

anyone ever heard the term "gradualization" ??? government pushing the envelope ever so slightly as to not disrupt the masses. before you know it they have complete control over your life.

pretty much exactly what happened in Nazi Germany. The holocaust was an extremely slow process. 1 step at a time... everything leading up to it was in the name of freedom and security.

it seems history may be repeating itself, and everyone seems to have forgotten what happened just 60 or so years ago.


whether you have something to hide or not, the government has no right monitoring unless there is a reasonable suspicion in my opinion... and if there is reasonable suspicion, they should have to go through the proper steps to acquire a search warrant.


there are many things that may have fled nazi germany and simply continued on in america. sorry and i can give better than that without far to much effort
