The lack of security policy prior to 9/11 had made an impact on the country’s approach to terrorism since personal liberties and freedom of the people that used to be guaranteed under the Constitution had been compromised. The enforcement of terrorism policies of the country violated the right to privacy of the people through warrantless wiretapping. This involves the creation of the National Security Agency (NSA) Warrantless Wiretapping Program that was ...
