Report: U.S. spied on Americans' intimate conversations abroad by SOLARLIFE

My phone under control of someone else

Controlling every phone call, not knowing that the own country runs into bancruptcy, is Tragedy. Thats how the East german security service died. They controlled everything, the Berlin wall fall down. Their country did not exist anymore. If you spy to much you don't make business.

Privacy act

It is obvious that only a new privacy act reestablish confidence

The congressional oversight committees said Thursday that the Americans targeted included military officers in Iraq who called friends and family in the United States.

The allegations were made by two former military intercept operators on a television news report Thursday evening.

A terrorist surveillance program instituted by the Bush administration allows the intelligence community to monitor phone calls between the United States and overseas without a court order -- as long as one party to the call is a terror suspect.

Adrienne Kinne, a former U.S. Army Reserves Arab linguist, told ABC News the NSA was listening to the phone calls of U.S. military officers, journalists and aid workers overseas who were talking about "personal, private things with Americans who are not in any way, shape or form associated with anything to do with terrorism."
