Under en bestemmelse i Patriot Act NSA får lov til at indsamle telefon metadata - tallene, tidsstempler, og varigheden af et opkald, men ikke dens faktiske indhold. Modstandere omfatter borgerlige frihedsrettigheder fortalere og senator Rand Paul, der hævder, at samlingen er forfatningsstridig, da det sker uden dommerkendelse. Tilhængere af samlingen hævder, at samlingen er nødvendig for at spore mistænkte terrorister.

No, and the leaders of the organization should face criminal prosecution for such illegal and unconstitutional data collection.
@2HQ3LDM3 år3Y
Yes, but only if all of the collected data are handed over to private third-party organization that verifies the anonymity
@2HQ38JX3 år3Y
Only if there is another agency to oversee them and the process is transparent.
@2HPSTJZ3 år3Y
Yes, but all information must be keep private and information gathered should be extremely limited.

Yes, because it's just phone numbers and data. Listening in and reading texts however, should require a warrant.
