does it bother you that our government is spying on all of US?
I'm 65 years old, born in 1946, I lived through the whole cold war era. When the Soviet Union {Russia} was discussed one of the things that convinced me it was an evil empire was the stories of everyone telling on everyone else, that the police and the KGB spent all kinds of time and money spying on their own citizens. Now our government can track everywhere you go by your electronic devices. We have Drones and computers, and satellite surveillance, they use the excuse of protecting you from illegal aliens or terrorists for new laws like the Patriot Act, but anyone who gives this a little thought might come to the conclusion that we could get rid of the Alien problem by arresting a few employers of said Aliens. Or that the loose, greedy, handling of visas and allowing these terrorists to come and go to America willynelly, allowed these terrorists to build their nest here and attack US. So does it Bother You that you are being observed and categorized and psychoanalyzed as we write and breathe.

CCTV telephones cellular telephones internet, e-mails and our laptop's IP address all of us has records to the government and lots infinite possibilities. however the real deal in the event that they use our records for looking terrorist, or to stay in potential. I incredibly have a feeling that effective countries might quickly undercover agent on different countries basically as what U.S. is doing to the Philippines suited now. No offense to the united states yet i think of we are being detected by way of your united states of america.

If they want to waste their time spying on me then more power to them. As far as I know neither I nor my neighbors are spying on each other and reporting our comings and goings to any governmental official nor have we been asked to do so. Are you sure you aren't experiencing the first signs (paranoia) of dementia?

If you have nothing to hide and you're not a terrorist, it shouldn't bother you.
