Closing sentence: People privacy is precise and can be put into the wrong hands and used for wrong reasons. We have all our personal information online and should not be afraid of strange people stalking our data. This is why we should not give up our privacy for the nation.

Everyone has a right to do whatever they want on the internet as long as its legal, without the government having to monitor them. When the government has to monitor people's privacy the government is stopping the freedom of people.

The violation of privacy can harm the civilians because all of their personal information is on the internet and can be accessed by people who could be using it for other reasons than trying to help protect the country.

Argument 2:Everyone has a right to do whatever they want on the internet as long as its legal, without the government having to monitor them. When the government has to monitor people's privacy the government is stopping the freedom of people. Six out of 10 citizens of the United states said they disapprove with the government being able to check their personal privacy, and at the end of the day if the citizens are unhappy with the laws that could anger towards the government and have many protest and could cause violence.

In our century everyone is online and on their electronic devices, which means that all our personal information is online.

As I said earlier data can fall into the hands of a wrong person, which could lead to violence

Agreeing with this statment it is not possible to keep way horrible things from happening.

This would not help the United States prevent future terrorist attacks, because the majority of the citizens (57%) say that the leaks about the observations the government makes using their personal privacy would not help the US stop future terrorist attacks, because they would not find anything they could be looking for in people's privacy.
