The CIA surveillance took place “entirely outside the statutory framework that Congress and the public believe govern this collection, and without any of the judicial, congressional or even executive branch oversight that comes from [Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act] collection.”
(Chris Queen – PJ Media) The phrase “Big Brother is watching you” has turned into such a cliche that we can easily forget the bracing shock that it brought when George Orwell published 1984:
The flat was seven flights up, and Winston, who was thirty-nine and had a varicose ulcer above his right ankle, went slowly, resting several times on the way. On each landing, opposite the lift-shaft, the poster with the enormous face gazed from the wall. It was one of those pictures which are so contrived that the eyes follow you about when you move. BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU, the caption beneath it ran.
It’s no longer conspiracy-mongering to say that we live in a surveillance state. Cameras are everywhere, and we’re already aware of how much information about ourselves our smartphones transmit.
So is it surprising that new documents have revealed that the CIA is spying on Americans, often without warrants?
