Yes, but only for the people who are under investigation with the evidence of criminal activity only for a particular case

 @B5ZS6K4from Ontario  answered…2 days2D

no unless the person has a criminal recorded or is in reason that the police believe they could cause harm to many people

 @9SXNRYKfrom California  answered…10mos10MO

Yes, so long as the country maintains a strong rule of law. As long as your right to free speech is protected, you do not need privacy in my opinion.

Only if they have reasonable cause to believe somebody needs to be monitored, like if they're a criminal or there's police evidence. In addition there needs to be a court order to give permission.

 @9LTNCX4from Ontario  answered…1yr1Y

No, unless the person is a registered offender or someone else that must be kept tabs on for safety reasons.

 @9L2P5YGfrom Ontario  answered…1yr1Y

Depends. If the person is under government radar for illegal activities, then yes. But if the person is off radar or reformed and is completely fine, even with criminal background, then should be occasionally monitored but not strictly.

 @9JC6BKVfrom Ontario  answered…1yr1Y

Yes, and all communications for any elected official should be public record before ANY private citizens are subjected to monitoring excepted by court order.

 @9GNXSP7from Ontario  answered…2yrs2Y

No, only in cases where a warrant is needed and deemed necessary for extreme crime and terrorist activities.
