Is the United States ALSO Spying on You?
Twelve years after Americans were stripped of their rights in the
name of fighting terrorism, thousands have gathered in Washington DC to protest
unconstitutional NSA spying programs revealed by Edward Snowden, and call for
repeal of the Patriot Act
The
Edward Snowden leaks have exposed that NSA not only spied on public records but
also on data mined from personal communications of world leaders, including even
those who are considered to be US allies.
The Stop Watching Us rally comes as twenty-one countries, including US allies France and Mexico, have joined talks to hammer out a UN resolution that would condemn “indiscriminate” and “extra-territorial” surveillance, and ensure “independent oversight” of electronic monitoring.
Other countries involved in the talks reportedly include Argentina, Austria, Bolivia, Cuba, Ecuador, Guyana, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Liechtenstein, Norway, Paraguay, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, Uruguay and Venezuela.
