I am a Dirtbag (act 2)

The pledge of allegiance states, "with liberty and justice for all." This statement is what America stands for, and so monitoring our private messages would become a direct violation of this promise made to all U.S. citizens; therefore, I predict that if a situation where the government fears an act of violence from the people, then they would not hack our phones and social media to track who is involved.

If, however, this situation came to life for me, then i would indeed change all habits of communication. I would withdraw all personal information, such as my locations or whom i am with,  from my textual conversations as to keep my privacy more intact.

If a team of FBI agents came knocking on my door then I would have nothing to be scared of as i have nothing to hide, but I would still be filled with a fear due to the uncertainty of why they are there. why did they come to my house? I can only assume they had a reason and that the reason had to do with me, so yes, without known cause to be scared, i would still be fearful. By having this new fear of knowing that they know me and are watching me, my persona would become a more cautious, innocent character.

This situation would of course be SCREAMING orwellian because of the government knowledge and action toward my private decisions.

my partner also believes that this is too much of an invasion of privacy and goes against our constitutional rights as United States Citizens. We agreed on a situation such as this to be considered "Orwellian" but also agreed that we would hardly change our communication habits any more than being more conscious of our words.
