In this article, Edward Snowden tells us about how surveillance is much worse than we think it is. Snowden elaborates and tells us that the more smart technology that we put in our homes, the more the government knows us. This is a scary issue that is really getting out of hand.

This article explains that this project has been going on for seven years and that this has been a problem for longer than we have realized. "They quite literally can watch your ideas form as you type." A career intelligence officer created a powerpoint and used this quote in it. This right here shows that Snowden was successful by releasing the information that he did.

This article was released over two years ago and reading it just now is shocking. This article claims that the US Department of Homeland Security spent $832,000 to put these surveillance cameras in Washington DC and Seattle. I don't think that this is an issue. I think that there is a CCTV surveillance that analyzes peoples face to see if they are going to commit a crime or not is concerning.
