(Before It's News)

“The government has no right to pick through your private information just because that’s technologically possible,” says American Civil Liberties Union policy counsel and former FBI agent Mike German. “The laws are now so lax that they can.”

German sat down with Reason.tv to discuss the top threats to civil liberties after 9/11. They range from new interpretations of the Fourth Amendment to law enforcement’s fascination with vast empires of data to “fusion centers” that pool sources among intelligence agencies and local police.

About 6.30 minutes.

Produced by Paul Detrick. Shot by Joshua Swain. Edited by Detrick and Tracy Oppenheimer.

  • Let me tell you about Mr. German ~ he was with the FBI in 2004 when 3 of those 7 people were shown to the world on 5/26/2004 a joint press conference by ashcroft & mueller…

    All 7 of these people were in Florida ~ 3 were captured & information on 5 others was given to authorites ~ Mr. German has since failed to tell the American people about that or has the ACLU taken this American patriots’ case…

    “BEFORE IT’S NEWS” ~ THE MEDIA WOULDN’T TOUCH THIS OUT OF FEAR & OR SERIOUS REPURCUSSIONS…

  • sorry ~ information on 3 others…

  • Had places like the ACLU / ACLJ / Judicial Watch & many other Govt. watchdog groups taken the case ~ many people would be in prison or even executed for committing TREASON…

    Colin Powell & Colonel Wilkerson ~ KNOW THE TRUTH & many people resigned over what treasonous traitors did ~ INSTEAD OF PROTECTING THE NATION AGAINST DOMESTIC ENEMIES…
