I want to start this off by saying that I'm not at all familiar with how the NSA is managed within the US government so this makes it all the more likely that what I am about to say makes no sense.
I was thinking about how you could reform the NSA to be more ethical(?) or responsible(?) by having it be controlled by the justice system instead of the military (does that make any sense?) but I couldn't think of any way for that to be done without it still holding on to a massive amount of power, which made me wonder if the NSA could be decentralized so that it is controlled at the state level instead of at the federal level along with judicial control to ensure that their actions are reasonably within American law.
To me this could help with their effectiveness as the state agencies would have to deal with smaller numbers and resources could be directed towards possible threats more specifically. In addition it doesn't seem like something either major party would find a great deal of offence with. The major problem I see with it is that it would lend itself to more bias.
I looked up "decentralize the NSA" on Google before this but only found one result which I feel confirms that I am either very stupid or crazy. I reckon (hope!) it's the former so could someone explain to me why it wouldn't make any sense?
Thanks.
