You may have recently heard about the United States National Security Agency (NSA) national security electronic surveillance program called PRISM. What does this mean for you?In case you were under the impression that there is this thing called "privacy", I hate to tell you, it's only a fantasy. It no longer exists. In fact, it hasn't for quite some time. The easiest way to deal with this is to operate under the assumption that you are being monitored at all times. This includes email, texts, online searches, social network activity, and more. I've been saying this for a long time and I'm not happy that I've been proved right: "Live your life like you are going to run for President someday." Rather than get into a civil liberties discussion (which could take weeks), here is some information that you may find useful. Take what you want, leave what you don't. What is the NSA's PRISM Program?
