First of all, NSA uses computers that log calls that contain certain phrases and words. There isnt anyone sitting in front of a switchboard tied into the telephone companies or cell providers plugging in to random calls. Knowing that Joe Blow has to pick up a jug of milk on the way home from work would not be very productive towards their Mission which is National security.

Like I said, your call. If you want to give them easy access to all of that, then that's your right.

How so? We have someone saying that the NSA/government is only trying to find terrorists and aren't actually concerned with the lives of regular citizens. Can someone really be that naive? If you believe everything the government says, then I don't know what to tell you.

There are quite a few posting here who think they are more important than they are. This is shown by the fact that they feel they are of such import that the feds are following their every move when in reality, the feds don't know or care about them, their lives, and their actions one whit.

Talk about a bloated sense of self-importance.
