But individuals also want to have autonomy, privacy, and freedom from unfair intrusions or other abuses of government power. The nuanced and long-term interaction of this push and pull between the government's legitimate desire for surveillance and legitimate desire expressed by individuals and society as a whole for civil liberties and autonomy run deeply though America's history, laws, actions, and policies of government surveillance"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aElectronic surveillance$xLaw and legislation$zUnited States 606 $aPrivacy, Right of$zUnited States$xHistory 615 0$aElectronic surveillance$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aPrivacy, Right of$xHistory. 676 $a342.7308/58 686 $aHIS027110$aHIS027060$aART040000$2bisacsh 702 $aDixon$b Pam$f1960- 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910798196803321 996 $aSurveillance in America$93787815 997 $aUNINA
