On the other hand, opponents argue that allowing the NSA to collect metadata infringes on citizens’ privacy rights and civil liberties. Even though metadata doesn’t contain the actual content of conversations, it can still provide an alarming amount of personal information about individuals, including their social connections, habits, and routines. The concern is that this kind of surveillance creates a “surveillance state,” where the government can monitor vast swaths of the population without reasonable suspicion or a warrant. Critics also point to the lack of adequate oversight, transparency, and accountability, which raises concerns about potential abuses of power and violations of constitutional rights.
