analyst and contractor with Booz Allen Hamilton‚ copied and leaked hundreds of documents from the NSA‚ revealing its cooperation with various other countries to establish 100% surveillance across the globe. This secret alliance was known as the “Five Eyes.” Using a secret court known as a FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act) court‚ the Five Eyes can obtain warrants to view every crevasse of somebody’s digital footprint‚ without probable cause. This discovery sparked a barrage of empty promises

In the first clip of the “Wire”‚ one of the theories that were discussed in class that was also discussed in the clip was Differential Association Theory which means that criminal behaviors are learned and criminals teach people who are not criminals. In this clip‚ we saw a man running away from a man and a woman because they were about to find and shoot him. The young man ran into a dead end where he had nowhere else to run while trying to escape. So‚ he cracked a window to an abandoned building

years due to its mass surveillance of US citizens‚ but supporters of the NSA claim the surveillance has made America safer for over a decade. The people of America deserve to have knowledge on this issue because the NSA can spy on anyone‚ anywhere in America without a warrant and without notification. The NSA started this surveillance 15 years ago in 2001 shortly after the 9/11 terror attacks. In the last couple years‚ it has been proven that the NSA utilizes mass surveillance; consequently‚ many

Mass Surveillance: Not A Necessary Tool On September 11‚ 2001‚ it was a normal day in New York City until it ended by the two airplanes crashing into the towers of the World Trade Center. Most Americans experienced the most tragic day in the country’s history. These attacks have had long-term social and personal effects on Americans. Since then‚ the government has expanded its power to engage in massive surveillance. This unprecedented surveillance power‚ which allows the government to secretly

Government Surveillance With the rise of radical terrorism‚ government surveillance is necessary in keeping the United States safe by preventing and fighting terrorism. Many government surveillance acts provide tools and allow special rules for law enforcement and intelligence agencies to use to fight terror and crime to make the world a safer place. Government surveillance is a controversial topic‚ Benjamin Franklin himself said that those who give up freedom for security deserve neither. Despite

affects the resistance of a piece of wire. Wire is made up of atoms. Electric current is a flow of electrons‚ and it is these electrons that collide with the nucleus of the atoms. Every time this happens‚ it causes resistance. The build up of friction is what produces the heat. There are many variables that could affect the resistance of the piece of wire: Length Potential difference Tension Temperature Diameter Shape Material of the wire I have chosen to do length because

investigate how the resistance of a wire is affected by the length of the wire. Theory What is resistance? Resistance is a force which opposes the flow of an electric current around a circuit so that energy is required to push the charged particles around the circuit. The circuit itself can resist the flow of particles if the wires are either very thin or very long. e.g. The filament across an electric light bulb. How is it measured? The resistance of a length of wire is calculated by measuring

resistance of a wire Introduction: Resistance is a force‚ which opposes the flow of an electric current around a circuit. Resistance is measured in Ohms. George Ohm discovered that a circuit sometimes resists the flow of electricity. He called this ’RESISTANCE.’ He even came up with a rule for working out the resistance of a circuit‚ which was: R= V ÷ I V- Volts I- Current R- Resistance Ohms law says the more resistance means more energy is needed for the current to pass through the wire.
