well we wanna harness the power of people because that's really what this
is one when people found out
they were outraged it wasn't
uh... one person's same i'm gonna go and i'm gonna create out region and use them
as my army to make a point
this is people coming together insane this is not ok we are the people we've
been waiting for
a part of this comes from the history of how this happened
a lot of this got started with the patriot
the patriot act was passed i think it was about a month after september
eleventh
it was not passed in response to september eleventh security failings
it would not a fix the problem it was a long list of things that law enforcement
had wanted for many many years
and in some cases congress had said no that's too much that would impose on
people's civil liberties
but after nine eleven there was
and we just had to do everything we had uh...
take the gloves off we had to go after the enemy and we past these billy broad
measures and they've been leon price three times and each time the
reauthorize congress wait until the very last minute
and does allow for really any debate
uh... so we as a nation
yet had the conversation about what is acceptable and what we are willing to
let the government do on our behalf and when the original patriot act was passed
as their conversation started
the two guys who couldn't stop to the congress tom daschle and pat leahy both
got anthrax nominal
and that and did that conversation yeah who is a scary time
uh... we don't know that by it
we as a nation need to reflect
they there's always been
a balance between security and freedom usually it's in the judiciary committee
where congress balances what law enforcement once and what's best for
society
england telegrams were first invented there wasn't law enforcement that wanted
to read them
chur we now have neutral walls in its possible
to tap into the internet and we use the internet for almost everything
and because these neutrals exist
government is going to want to use them in its are
responsibility to have that conversation about where the balances its interesting
that on the private sector side
there is a conversation that's happening about mister several big data marketing
firms
put third-party cookies on your websites and so they contract where you go not
just when you're on face book but where you go from face book on where you go
from google what you're searching and where that leads you to
and they build these profiles about what they want to sell teo right
is concerning to some people
marketers think it's a great idea to other people they think it's a huge
invasion of their privacy
but there's a conversation that's happening right now people on minor are
are supporting some people are supporting something called do not track
which would about would make it so these third-party cookies couldn't get onto
your computer and track where you're going
f_t_c_ commissioner brill just last week
him yet with an idea cla berkeley near me name tiger claimed or name
where she suggested that the big
data marking company should come together and create a website so will
you could go and see what kind of information is being collected about you
n say when you don't want information eclectic see if there is information
that was wrong but at least marino personal bomb appointee buddy adage
israeli premium sheet she deserves a lot of credit for that but on the private
side
these big data tools existing people are using them in some ways that people
don't like but there's a conversation about where the balance sprint when
society develops in there's newt walls
ended new technologies
there's a conversation about a balance of maar we gonna use these tools
how are we going to protect who we are as a nation
and we haven't really done that on the national security level for these big
data tools yeah and i'm speaking for myself here i i'm very grateful that the
nation is having that conversation right now
people are saying i'm gonna put down the hot dogs and hamburgers for just a
couple hours i'm gonna go out then i'm gonna be part of this conversation
because it's so important
but if we don't have this conversation now even if you absolutely trust this
government fifteen years from now it'll be too late we won't get the option to
have this conversation
once it's in trying in the law
and and it has been for almost a decade and and uh... it's effect for
more than yet more than a decade but
it's ages it when the office a legal council put out a memo it's called a
legal opinion
and i think that were is actually in important opinion
it is our opinion that this is the law and we are going to act on the belief
that it is true
but it only becomes really ratified once it's challenged in the courts been
upheld there've been several big examples recently where at belmont
freight instance where for more than a decade the government
operated under the belief
that eight law passed by congress or you are all doing for judicial review of the
pace reactor you arguing for an amendment to repeal the patriot act
or not the about just for conversation
well we as a group are are suggesting amending repeal the patriot act however
we're not getting it into deep
typing detailed of legislative
fixes that
raisin bran in d_c_ all the time
i think we had was the first exactly we hire people we gave the money to go to
washington and
work on our behalf
i don't think you can expect somebody kind of
for the minimum wage credible that it up for that reason family training there
kids off the streets
to be able to read every bill in congress you know it's going to get
someone with a demanding members of congress do it for
the issues that come our grand river make their life
restore the for the national sport and restore aria stealing he are
