The whole NSA mass-spying thing, in my opinion, will not end until we get a president and Congress/Representatives who don't claim it successfully tracks terrorists. It has been proven it has NOT stopped a single terrorist attack, and in fact, could be used unfairly in non-terrorism trials. Just my two cents.

The issue is that they have people who are in the terrorist database that they don't single out and track, but instead they are collecting the data from everyone and it is just way to much for them to sort out and actually use it to stop terrorists.

Right!

Plus, some of these terrorists aren't even on any watch lists - if I remember right, the truck driver in Nice, France wasn't on any lists. Just an example.
