I voted to keep my phone and internet conversations private. However I don't mind if the Government knows who I call or how often I call them so that they can track potential terrorists among us. But they are not reading my emails or listening in on my phone calls hopefully without a search warrant for that.

We must balance security with privacy somehow.

If you not doing anything wrong then you should have nothing to worry about. I knows that I'm not calling any known terrorist to my knowledge so I should have nothing to fear but fear itself. I do admit that this is a complicated issue. We have to trust in our government to help protect us from potential enemies at home and abroad. I generally trust the US Government for the most part. Yes it's run by humans and they can make mistakes and do things that they are not suppose to do but that's life as I see it. Nothings perfect. I'd rather live in the USA than in China or the Soviet Union or the Middle East somewhere. We have certain rights and more privacy that any other citizens in most all other countries.

PS: We would not have to worry about Al Queda and their friends if we didn't meddle in the middle east so much. We didn't have any problems with Bin Laden until President Bush sent troops into Saudi Arabia. And to add further insult to the Muslims we sent US women in there too. They didn't like hosting US troops and this is what Made Bin Laden turn against the US. Before this we fought along side with Bin Laden against the Soviets in Afghanistan. Some thing we should all take not of. Politics makes for strange bed fellows.

Like I said. It's complicated.
