Privacy Debate: Shouldn't Public Demand High Threshold?

Given the errors and abuses in the past, isn't it reasonable for the public to demand a very high threshold for the gathering, collection, storage and use of this information? Taipale answered that the technology that creates all of this information actually allows you to create better controls on this information. One of the ways to avoid abuse is to focus on audit mechanisms not to prevent barriers to these programs that creates operations problems. Alderdice responded by saying there is a danger of information overload. There's a fantasy that if you have more information, you'll have better security results. It is possible that government and law enforcement officials are using the existence of these massive amounts of information as a substitute for more thoughtful counterintelligence and better cooperation between officials. Respondents: Taipale and Alderdice.
