Thank you for the link. But I wish I could believe that after so many unpunished lies from them... https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/sep/25/nsa-reform-fire-officials-lied https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/sep/25/nsa-re... > Unfortunately the tools available to terrorists continue to change and so must the measures used to fight them. From what I know, the current problem is not the lack of information, but how well it is targeted. For example, we knew about the terrorists in France in 2016: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/March_2017_%C3%8Ele-de-France_attacks#Suspect_and_aftermath https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/March_2017_%C3%8Ele-de-France_... Also, many think that the war on terror made more harm to the humanity then what we would have otherwise. At least such invasive war. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_the_War_on_Terror https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_the_War_on_Terror
