#2 the heightened concern for our civil liberties under government digital surveillance...this presents an opportunity for dialogue we havenÂ’t had for many years. Who knows if it will happen?
But if it does, I hope it will be intelligent and substantive. These are not easy questions. Good reasons exist for government surveillance.
I'm not optimistic about that debate. Most likely, the so-called debate will be sound bites, talking points, gotcha politics, and then move on to the next sensational news story. |
