The government should not have the access to our data.

Technically, every time any government employee uses the Internet, they retrieve some private data. Hence the only way to satisfy the condition you want is to cut off all access of the government to the Internet, which seems pretty counter-productive.

Did you mean instead that the government should not be able to force private ISPs to share your data with it without your consent? If so, then I agree.

I agree because you shouldn`t get stalked online as the government may know all your details online. maybe not even the government but some random evil person.

Do you want the government to not access the internet? What would they do if they would want to lookup something?

@SipBid It's often said that knowledge is power, and on some level most people know that this is true. So just give all the information about you away to big corporations and governments because they have never been caught abusing power.
