Cell phone surveillance content
[edit]I see a ton of great and well cited content here in this article for cell phone surveillance... and not in the main article Cellphone surveillance. I'm a little shaky on some wikipedia protocols - should the data be migrated there and a brief summary left in this larger article? Seems a shame to have it here and not there.

- In general, a more specialized article should have more in-depth coverage than in a broader article where the specialized topic is only a suggestion. So IMO cell phone surveillance material that is in this article that is not in the other article should be added there. But that is not a reason to take it out of this article....any removal from this article would be based on the normal practices at this article. North8000 (talk) 15:29, 24 October 2019 (UTC)

"Legitimate" vs "illegitimate" surveillance
[edit]Although the introduction states that surveillance is generally overt and considered legitimate, this is somewhat contradicted in the body—especially with the discussion of broad US surveillance of the internet, phone calls, and so on. Considering that numerous federal surveillance programs are classified and covert, and that they are believed to operate to some extent or another on the wrong side of the Constitution, I propose rephrasing the introduction. (Possible phrasing, though it could use some work, might be more along the lines of "While surveillance has traditionally been considered overt and legitimate, modern surveillance programs are often classified, covert, or intended to be secret.")
