That's why we have an entire government arm devoted to spying (it's called the CIA, as well as military intelligence and NSA). They are set up, by Congress, to spy on foreigners.

Do you think that new technologies will not bring new forms of spying?

Do they get spied on?



PS: kittehs rule!

and don't worship baby Jeebus.

of our government.

Also, they're foreigners. It's our spy agencies' job to spy on foreigners.

Middle East countries where the terrorist are don't have the same rights we do. They don't need to issue warrants like they do here to look at phone records.

clearly guarantee the right to privacy.
Brits believed this same shite in the last century - now they are paying reparations to the Kenyan and others will demand their pound of flesh as well.

Call me callous.

I'm trying to think of a government, throughout history, that hasn't, and I'm coming up blank.

I don't know much about spying ..

I'll shut up now

Especially dorkly ones! :p

Beer rules too. I think : )

and costs trillions to protect us from foreigners? It's okay to buy weapons to kill them but never spy on them, cause they might stop buying from American companies.

It sort of implies that we'd all be okay with other governments spying on us, just not our own.

...I would have no problem with scaling back spying capabilities so long as it was accompanied by a closing of our military bases and public statements that we will refrain from meddling in other countries' affairs except under the auspices of the U.N.
