Mass surveillance : a guide for the perplexed. 330 $aAmerica's mass surveillance programs, once secret, can no longer be ignored. While Edward Snowden began the process in 2013 with his leaks of top secret documents, the Obama administration's own reforms have also helped bring the National Security Agency and its programs of signals intelligence collection out of the shadows. The real question is: What should we do about mass surveillance? Timothy Edgar, a long-time civil liberties activist who worked inside the intelligence community for six years during the Bush and Obama administrations, believes that the NSA's programs are profound threat to the privacy of everyone in the world. At the same time, he argues that mass surveillance programs can be made consistent with democratic values, if we make the hard choices needed to bring transparency, accountability, privacy, and human rights protections into complex programs of intelligence collection. Although the NSA and other agencies already comply with rules intended to prevent them from spying on Americans, Edgar argues that the rules--most of which date from the 1970s--are inadequate for this century. Reforms adopted during the Obama administration are a good first step but, in his view, do not go nearly far enough. Edgar argues that our communications today--and the national security threats we face--are both global and digital. In the twenty first century, the only way to protect our privacy as Americans is to do a better job of protecting everyone's privacy. Beyond Surveillance: Privacy, Mass Surveillance, and the Struggle to Reform the NSA explains both why and how we can do this, without sacrificing the vital intelligence capabilities we need to keep ourselves and our allies safe. If we do, we set a positive example for other nations that must confront challenges like terrorism while preserving human rights. The United States already leads the world in mass surveillance. It can lead the world in mass surveillance reform. 606 $aPrivacy, Right of$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01077444 606 $aOfficial secrets$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01044261 606 $aNational security$xLaw and legislation$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01033727 606 $aLeaks (Disclosure of information)$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00994785 606 $aGovernment information$xLaw and legislation$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00945373 606 $aElectronic surveillance$xLaw and legislation$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00907480 606 $aGovernment information$xLaw and legislation$zUnited States 606 $aLeaks (Disclosure of information) 606 $aElectronic surveillance$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 606 $aOfficial secrets$zUnited States 606 $aNational security$xLaw and legislation$zUnited States 606 $aElectronic surveillance$xLaw and legislation$zUnited States 606 $aPrivacy, Right of$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$2fast$1https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJtxgQXMWqmjMjjwXRHgrq 615 7$aPrivacy, Right of. 615 7$aOfficial secrets. 615 7$aNational security$xLaw and legislation. 615 7$aLeaks (Disclosure of information) 615 7$aGovernment information$xLaw and legislation. 615 7$aElectronic surveillance$xLaw and legislation. 615 0$aGovernment information$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aLeaks (Disclosure of information) 615 0$aElectronic surveillance$xGovernment policy 615 0$aOfficial secrets 615 0$aNational security$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aElectronic surveillance$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aPrivacy, Right of 676 $a342.7308/58 700 $aEdgar$b Timothy H.$01855776 712 02$aBloomsbury (Firm), 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bSFB 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bOCLCO 801 2$bDXU 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bOCLCF 801 2$bOCLCO 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bOCLCL 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910954979903321 996 $aBeyond Snowden$94454131 997 $aUNINA 999 $cEBook
