Americans have been loud and clear about their opposition to the U.S. Surveillance State. After Edward Snowden selflessly blew the whistle on the size and scope of the terrifying surveillance machine that is the National "Security" Agency, we have been fighting hard to reclaim our privacy rights ever since.
Now, with a Trump presidency looming, myself and others have felt a renewed fear over the potential consequences of entrusting such an unpredictable and bigoted person to hold the reins over mass surveillance. I personally wouldn't trust ANYONE with such power, but Trump poses a uniquely dangerous threat.
NSA spying means our calls, texts, emails, location are all logged and gobbled up to potentially be abused by the State. This has a chilling effect on speech and destroys our ability to safely explore new ideas or dissent against State overreach.
Obama can stop this. We have just months until Trump takes over. Sign and share this petition to tell Obama to truly protect the American people and shut down mass surveillance before Trump takes office, before it's too late. Note: Click "read petition letter" below for specifics of what Obama can do.

Obama: Please truly protect the American people and shut down mass surveillance before Trump takes office, before it's too late. Please do the following:
1. Physically dismantle NSA's massive datacenter.
2. Delete the data that has already been collected on millions of Americans.
3. Disclose the specifics of ALL mass surveillance programs.
4. Pardon Edward Snowden. Ensure whistleblowers feel they can expose wrongdoing without being thrown in a cage.
Thank you.
