Is the NSA allowed to spy on people?

The NSA is allowed to monitor, collect, and interpret information on people, and act if someone is very suspicious. It can be viewed as a sense of spying.


How did edward snowden leaked details of nsa intelligence eavesdropping system established by president Obama in January 2009 just as he took over?

First, it is not accurate to say that NSA spying was "established by President Obama." Like it or hate it, the Patriot Act, championed by President Bush after the 9/11 attacks in 2001, permitted a vast expansion of spying and eavesdropping. It is true that President Obama did not curtail the program as much as civil libertarians would have liked, but he did not originate it. As for Edward Snowden, he was a contractor for the NSA, and he seems to have had quite an incredible amount of unsupervised access to personal data. Snowden resigned from a job at the CIA in 2009, but he did not begin leaking any classified documents at that time. By most accounts, it was not until 2012, when he was an NSA employee, that Snowden began downloading documents and leaking them.


Why was the Obama administration sued for conducting telephone surveillance?

The American Civil Liberties Union announced in June 2013 that it was suing the Obama administration over the National Security Agency (NSA) surveillance program. The NSA had been secretly gathering phone records for quite a while (since 2001), ostensibly to monitor terrorists; but the program had little oversight and was never explained to the American people, even though it seemed to be legal under the Patriot Act. The ACLU disagreed, because they felt the program was an invasion of privacy. As it turns out, the ACLU has a long history of bringing suits against what they consider to be unfair surveillance or too much spying on citizens, even when a president claims he has a good reason for doing so. For example, in 2002-2003, they sued the Bush Administration over the original implementation of the Patriot Act, which (like the NSA spying program) the ACLU felt went much too far in taking away people's privacy.

This is being debated right now in light of the NSA spying scandal. I suspect that if it not encrypted, it isn't private.
