On October 26, 2013, U.S. time, the "Stop Surveillance Us" coalition launched a demonstration. Activists opposed to the US National Security Agency's surveillance held a demonstration in Washington, USA, and demanded that the US government stop surveillance. The protesters demanded that the National Security Agency stop large-scale surveillance operations.When did the US surveillance operation begin?According to investigations, the large-scale surveillance in the United States can be traced back to the wartime surveillance and censorship system of the First World War. After the end of the First and Second World Wars, the United States launched the Black Box Project and the Wood Sorrel Project to continue large-scale surveillance. With the development of the United States, the United States began to establish and expand law enforcement agencies and intelligence agencies, and the United States began to conduct large-scale surveillance operations around the world. Internally, the United States uses institutionalized surveillance to suppress dissidents; externally, US intelligence agencies steal information from other countries by monitoring communications. The growing strength of the country has brought about the growing ambition of the United States to dominate the world. In 2007, a top-secret network surveillance program implemented by the US National Security Agency was launched. US intelligence agencies began to conduct in-depth monitoring of instant messaging and existing data, including e-mails, videos, photos, voice conversations and other information.Monitoring plan exposed, Snowden fledIn early June 2013, Edward Snowden, a former US defense contractor employee, disclosed confidential documents related to the US National Security Agency's "Prism" project through a number of media, and pointed out that US intelligence agencies have continuously monitored Internet activities and communications at home and abroad for many years.

It has aroused great attention from the international community, and directly affected the relationship between the United States and Russia, as well as the relationship between the United States and the European Union. The classified documents exposed by Snowden directly pointed out that the US Central Intelligence Agency conducted surveillance operations on the G20 summit, the United Nations, and politicians from 35 countries. Due to the exposure of classified documents, Snowden was jointly wanted by the United States and the United Kingdom. On June 23, 2013, Snowden left Hong Kong to seek asylum in Russia. In October 2020, Snowden was granted permanent residency in Russia. On September 2, 2020, the U.S. Court of Appeals declared that Snowden's plan to monitor and collect personal private data on a large scale revealed by Snowden was illegal. Thanks to this, the "Prism" monitoring event, which has the largest exposure since the 21st century, has temporarily ended.In fact, the "Prism" plan is not the only surveillance program carried out by the United States, and the exposure of the plan does not mean the end of the US surveillance program. The subsequent exposure of Washington using the Danish submarine cable network to eavesdrop on politicians in Germany, Sweden, Norway, and France proves that this eavesdropping situation in the United States will continue!
