Talk:Big Data in American Intelligence Agencies

The length of the article is little over 1200 words which does meet the length requirement. 1300 more will be needed for the final revision which you are on track to complete.

The structure of the article also meets the requirements as you start off with a short summary description of big data in American intelligence agencies. Defining big data from the start really helped me better understand the topic and follow the same page as the author. The body paragraphs dive deeper into the introduction which is good, revealing big data's controversy and relation to American intelligence agencies. And then, there are ethical controversies are also displayed. Many points you made were all supported by credited evidence which is good. I did notice that much of the content was focused on the current/past so I suggest adding content about the ethical implications of big data and how our world might be different decades from now. I would also like to read more about other controversies related to American intelligence agencies.

In terms of clarity, I found the writing style to be very straightforward and well-researched. The ethical issues of big data are well explained, providing a clear picture to the audience of the risk and dangers that come with big data. You clearly display that Edward Snowden's leak to the public was a wake-up call for America on what the government can and has been doing with our data. I can only imagine how much under the iceberg is left regarding privacy invasion.

I believe the article was crafted from a solid objective standpoint as you revealed two perspectives for many scenarios such as recognizing those who say Snowden is a monster vs a hero. It's always important to hear from both sides of the wall and I believe you did your best to mention both sides.
