“In a detailed, legal critique of the NSA programme, the ACLU warned that such long-term surveillance ‘permits the government to assemble a richly detailed profile of every person living in the United States and to draw a comprehensive map of their associations with one another.’ The ACLU document is peppered with quotes from literary, academic and other sources, to illustrate the danger of mass surveillance by the government, including the writings of George Orwell and The Lives of Others, an award-winning movie about the monitoring of East Berlin by the Stazi by director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck.”
