Government Surveillance



When heard of being under surveillance, people often automatically go against the idea. It is clearly an invasion of privacy; the government tracking your private calls, social media, and texts. Today, the government has access to anyone's information anytime. People are uncomfortable with the idea that someone is able to access private information that they do not want anyone to see, regardless of whatever it is. Privacy offers many people a sense of freedom as well. When the privacy is invaded, it is as if they're freedom has been taken away, their right to keep things to themselves. Although there are negative aspects, I do not believe that anyone would be affected by being under surveillance unless they had something to hide. However, the information accessed should remain classified instead of being given away to companies as a target for advertisement or efficiency. For example, the man who went to Disney had all of his information already accessed by the park's database. Although the government wants to access an individual's privacy, it should always be to a limit and kept as classified information as well.
