The European Union (EU) is worried a -secret American surveillance program that has spied its citizens. "Surveillance" means looking the daily actions spies and criminals. EU officials are angry that the program (called PRISM) spied normal EU citizens. The company that operates PRISM accessed millions of e-mails and personal data Google, Facebook, Apple and other e-mail providers. EU spokesman Tonio Borg said the EU wants the USA to promise it will respect the rights European citizens. He said the USA must not look the personal information Europeans. He is angry because US laws say PRSIM cannot spy on Americans, unless they are possible terrorists.

PRISM has the power to get the emails and phone records non-US nationals. It can also tap voice chat, videos and social networking details. A reporter Britain's "The Guardian" newspaper said PRISM workers could access anyone's emails or phone calls any time. Dutch lawmaker Sophia Veld said: "500 million Europeans were shocked to find a foreign nation has access to every intimate detail their private lives.” A former CIA worker, Edward Snowden, 29, leaked secret documents about the surveillance program to "The Guardian" last week. Mr Snowden is currently hiding Hong Kong. The USA says he has broken the law. Moscow has said Snowden may be able to live safely Russia.
