The Freedom Act is proposed to end bulk collection of phone and internet communications, allowed under the Patriot Act.
While I enjoy my "Freedom" from unreasonable searches, and my right to privacy, 2 thoughts ran thru my head......
1) Hey, I have nothing to hide. Let them read and listen to all my conversations, if that is what keeps up safe.
(plus, I'm sure whoever listening will get a chuckle from some of my phone conversations. I'll probably be the talk of the office)
2) While we send and receive approximately 30 emails a day, 20 phone conversations and possibly a handful of forum and multi-media posts......that equals 60'some communications per day.....420 per week, 1600 per month, and over 20,000 per year
That being said......
Should I really be worried about them being able to monitor my 1600 correspondence per month, when they can't seem to handle my ONE transaction, when applying for medical coverage on their website over the past month????
just my 2 cents.:ROFLMAO:

“The government surveillance programs conducted under the Foreign Surveillance Intelligence Act are far broader than the American people previously understood.
The USA FREEDOM Act would end the dragnet collection of Americans’ phone records under Section 215 of the USA PATRIOT Act and ensure that other authorities cannot be used to justify similar dragnet collection. The bill also provides more safeguards for warrantless surveillance under the FISA Amendments Act.
