It doesn't bother me. The main thing that such methods are not used to fight the opposition. While I have not seen such in America. This is only in Russia. I hope that the Americans know what to do.

Here in our country it's not admissible,you can go to jail if you intercept data without a court order,even the cia version here in our country are not allowed to intercept data,is our democratic law better than the americans,it should not be allowed at all.

The problem is, how do they define a "threat"? Shot people? So they are just going to shot without actually piling up evidence as well? I don't know if these "metadata" can be used in court. Looking more and more like a police state. The problem is that since no one knows how much they can find out about people and the extent of these operation, we can't tell if they are actually using this just for security or something else. The state don't always have the people's best interest in mind.


That is, if you can prove they've been wiretapping you. Never underestimate the power government can exert. You'd probably never know they've been listening until they use the date accumulated against you.

We are now living in a world where technology is very sophisticated and our lives as well as our work is now dependent on computers and programs.  The only problem with the software of the CIA is not the system itself but rather on the verification of the metadata. Once a data was placed inside the software even if it was not carefully checked or verified the system will deem it correct and classified. If lazy people will feed wrong data then someone will be killed due to this loopholes.

This is why we need to be able to take control of our identities and limit what we share and who we share it with.

The more serious problem for people like that is not that they go through others' mail, but that they kill people because of it. First they should be held accountable for killings done in the name of a state, then for attacks on individuals liberties.

There will always be people who had deprived childhoods and did not get to play cops and robbers or spygames when they were children, so the make up for it at as adults at the expense of society.

It has nothing whatsoever to do with national security.

More reasons to avoid leaving metadata. I've used a smartphone for months without a SIM card, and now that I've got 2, my mobile data is always set at OFF, and  I only turn on wifi when I need it.
