The Pros And Cons Of NSA Spying

Some people believe, when the NSA spies on their own citizens illegally it creates an atmosphere of distrust between the government and its’ citizens; the NSA might believe by doing so, they are saving and preventing certain situations from taking place. Edward Snowden revealed the level of infiltration in his statement about NSA spying. Woodburn stated that "Seven months after the initial Snowden leaks, sixty-three percent of Americans stated that they were dissatisfied with the government's Surveillance of U.S. citizens" (28). U.S citizens disagree at times with their government's choices, and the National Security Agency infiltrating cell phone and computers makes this situation worse. Americans resent the government taking away their right to privacy in order to find terrorists. But, terrorists have found United States citizens, born in the USA, to help them commit terrorist acts and the NSA is wasting time and effort searching into American people while they are allowing real threats happen.
The National Security Agency running such investigations on American citizens is in violation of the Fourth Amendment
The NSA infiltrating the United States citizen's technology such as cell phones and computers is unjustified because there are no filters for the NSA or knowledge of their investigation taking place. For example "In his interview with RT, Binney emphasized that the FBI does not filter email messages but obtains and stores all of a person's e-mails, and when he or she becomes a target, their entire records are extracted and analyzed for the desired information" (NSA Whistleblower). Coming up with filtering processes would allow them to save time and filter out the non-terrorist threats. Many people make mistakes under pressure, knowing the National Security Agency is hunting you down is tons of pressure ask Osama bin
