The author condemns the act of spying on nations by the NSA(National Security Agency) in the name of security. The documents leaked by Edward Snowden show that almost all ally countries of U.S and other big names in the world, including the not so big names i.e the whole population of certain areas have been under a secret lens of NSA. And the spy game has a long time dimension. Personal phone calls of German Chancellor Angela Merkel have been followed for over a decade. Though she was ridiculed of not taking a stance against NSA until she realised that she herself was under the monitor. With millions of phone calls and e-mails been monitored, Spain and France are also big-time victims. Officials of EU countries too had their phone bugged by them for a long time.
Where are they searching for criminals, when they can find them right in the mirror. Not only the security services but the telecommunications corporates and internet giants like Google, Microsoft, Facebook etc. are also guilty, as they provided data which they are not supposed to.
GCHQ (British Government Communications Headquarters) are now finding ways to keep their ways out of courts, because they know they'll be deep into legal challenges over the clauses of Human Rights Act.
There had been one other whistleblower named Peter Wright, an ex-MI5 officer, who published his memoirs to take a revenge to his unsettled dispute over his pension with his former employers.
Though a review of NSA activities report to be submitted to Barack Obama is due on Nov. 11, we see a little to come positive as only a part of the content would me made available to Congress for the report and the panel includes largely of former security officials.
What's needed is to ask them that do they have the right to peek into our personal calls and e-mails and still wander off easily? Do they have the right to overrun our rights? And foremost what is the limit of a nation's security agency, does it exceed the borders and our personal domains? The author calls the NSA a modern-day-cyber-Taliban, which we all shall totally agree to.
