Case Chapter 4

1.) I believe that these issues do pose an ethical issue. We deserve to know what we should and shouldn't say on the telephone. I think that tapping just any one's telephone is an invasion of privacy.

4.) The phone company's responsiblity is to provide information in there privacy policy letting it's users know that there privacy may be breeched, if they fit the profiling lisited by the NSA. Ethical, social and political issues can apply to the profiling of it's customers based on name, race, gender, and calling radius. I think the question of how much are the phone companies being paid by the gov to realease the information would also bring up issues of ethicacy. What is the price that has been put on our privacy, i think we deserve to know.

5.) I suppose that this is an OK compromise, at least there are a set of limitations and a few hoops that need to be jumped through. I suppose that if they have reasonable suspicion that it should be allowed.
