Importance Of Privacy In America
The America I believe in we have a lots of freedom and privacy because of the soldiers that risked their lives to save and protect our freedom so we don't have to be dictated or told what we do in life. I am very grateful for all they have done for our great nation. Thanks to them we don't have slavery. We are also very wealthy and not a third world country.
Even after so many terrorists tried to put America down we still rose up from the ashes again and stopped them. Just like 9/11, they destroyed the Twin Towers and we rebuilt the one tower and killed the terrorists. The two destroyed buildings slowed us down, but we still have them . Even though we went through some rough times we still are not poor, and if anything we are growing.

    Many Americans are being watched, in great detail, by the government. In its ongoing battle against crime and terrorism, the U.S. has ramped up its surveillance on individuals over the years. As in the book, 1984, by George Orwell, "Big Brother Is Watching You". Many people feel that this surveillance is a major invasion of privacy and a violation of their rights.…

    In criminal cases, there is always a need for evidence to convict the suspected criminal of breaking the law; however, because people have an expectation of privacy, warrants, legal permission to obtain evidence, are required before searching and/or seizing someone's things, writings, electronic data, etc. without the permission of the person being targeted. Before a warrant can be issued, there must be probable cause, sufficient reason to believe that a person committed a crime, present. This prevents people's privacy from being violated unnecessarily; however, there are some exceptions to this requirement. If the situation is deemed an emergency, then a warrant is not required, which means that it is possible that a person's right to privacy could be violated regardless of the warrant…

    Though there were thousands of deaths America fought on. Americans donated to families who had lost love ones, gave money to fire stations to help in the search for any survivors and even volunteered to help out at ground zero themselves. President Bush himself visited ground zero to give thanks to all the volunteers and give his prayers to those that had lost loved ones. An attack that was supposed to bring the U.S. down the weakest it had ever been and instead put the U.S. at its strongest. This shows how the U.S. can bounce back from extremely tragic…

    The fourth amendment states that unreasonable searches or seizures are prohibited unless they have a warrant. the fourth amendment grew directly out o the colonists experience of unreasonable searches of there privacy and personal property. Even the king did not have the authority to search his peoples homes although government agents were allowed to search homes if the reason was lawful and they had a warrant. My family thinks this amendment is very important because of whats happening right now with the internet and individual surveillance. its more important than ever. The controversy is that the NSA and commercial (i.e. google) surveillance are eroding our privacy. I think the whole thing with the NSA seeing our emails is really creepy.…

    The US constitution does not contain a specific right to privacy but the Bill of Rights does imply it. The ninth amendment of the Bill of Rights reads “the bill of rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage other rights retained by the people”. This amendment states that the rights of the people that are not specifically named are still equally important as the ones that are. Since the constitution does not give the government the right to violate privacy, it is said to be the same as retaining the right to privacy for the citizens. It is more of an implied right than an expressed one.…

    America's Privacy

    The National Security Agency (NSA) is a federal program under the Department of Defense that has the primarily task of global monitoring, collection, decoding, translation and analysis of information and data for foreign intelligence and counterintelligence purposes, including surveillance of targeted individuals on U.S. soil. In the mid-1970s, the NSA was investigated for the first time by Congress. At that time, the order of the NSA was that is “would never direct it’s surveillance apparatus domestically.” After the investigation was performed, Frank Church, the Democratic senator who was the head of the investigative committee, warned: “The NSA’s capability at any time could be turned around on the American people, and no American would have any privacy left, such is the capability to monitor everything: telephone conversation, telegrams, it doesn’t matter” (Greenwald). Recent leakage of government documents, that shows evidence of immense domestic spying, has many Americans worried that Frank Church’s warning has become a reality. So, what exactly is the NSA collecting and why? How does the United States’ data collection compare to that of other countries? And most importantly, have the government and the NSA put the privacy of US citizens at risk?…

    The Fourth Amendment protects us citizens from the searching of our homes and private property without properly executed search warrants. If law enforcement wants to collect these records such as GPS tracking or cell phone tracking, they will need a search warrant based on probable cause. This constitutes a search under the Fourth Amendment because it violates the individuals reasonable expectation of privacy. You would think that your location would be private and expect it to remain private, but that is not the case. When law enforcement seeks the cell phone location and this individual is inside his or her house, they cross the line by learning facts about the interior of the home, which is clearly illegal without a warrant. Let's say the…

    Personal Privacy

    The purpose of this paper is to explain what I use to protect my personal privacy. There are many different things that can be use to protect someone’s information and keep hackers from accessing their computer. Some people use anti-virus, firewalls and anti-spam software to help protect their personal privacy. As we all know with today’s technology having just anti-virus or firewalls are not good enough, but having something is better than nothing. They do not protect you from new or custom-made viruses and evil-scripts. There is no one solution to protect you from Identity Theft, it’s just too many threats to keep up with, and having one software will not do the job for you. One key to protecting your information would be multi-layer protection; this means having more than one program monitoring you computer for different reasons.…
