I have read that to potentially locate terrorists, or, stop terrorist activities from occuring in the U.S., that, the NSA now routinely uses sophisticated data mining and expert systems with massive compiled databases on a myriad of routine activities we all do...internet activity, phone records, credit records, purchasing behavior, e-mails, etc.
Assuming this is true, is it ok to enable our government to stop terrorism from occuring?
Even if our new data driven age allows this to occur, is it something that we should do, but perhaps put limits on how government agencies might use such data. What do you think?
