He Electronic Communications Privacy Act and the Stored Wire Electronic Communications Act are commonly referred together as the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) of 1986. The ECPA updated the Federal Wiretap Act of 1968, which addressed interception of conversations using "tapped" telephone lines, but did not apply to interception of computer and other digital and electronic communications. Several subsequent pieces of legislation, including The USA PATRIOT Act<span>, clarify and update the ECPA to keep pace with the evolution of new communications technologies and methods, including easing restrictions on law enforcement access to stored communications in some cases. -referenced </span>
The
Scarlet Letter shows readers the lives of a Puritan community in the 17th
century. Religion (blind religion) meant everything to them, and the words of
their Reverends was law. Breaking any religious rules was punished by public
humiliation and punishment of the person who committed it, for example, Hester
Prynne. When the church found out that she was committing adultery, they forced
her to wear a scarlet letter 'A' on her chest, so that her sin could follow her
everywhere and she (and others in the community), could be constantly reminded
of it. <span>
<span>This kind of belief in punishing supposed "sinners"
made relationships between men and women in this Puritan community very
strained. Religion governed their way of life. They failed to realize that no
human is perfect, and no human can precisely follow that kind of a lifestyle.
In the end, when the reader finds out who the man was that Hester had committed
adultery with, it is obvious what Hawthorne was trying to communicate about
such strict organized religion; no one is as perfect as God, therefore looking
up to reverends and priests in such a blind belief is dangerous because they
are only human and make similar mistakes as everyone else.</span></span>
Answer:
The correct answer is A. Truman fired MacArthur to preserve civilian control of the military.
Explanation:
After the invasion of North Korean troops into South Korea on June 25, 1950, MacArthur was given command of the international troops with a UN mandate, which he led to their first success when they landed at Incheon. In the course of the war and in the face of the deployment of Chinese volunteers and soldiers, he vehemently campaigned for the use of nuclear weapons in 49 North Korean cities and the expansion of the conflict into the People's Republic of China. President Harry S. Truman rejected these special requests on several occasions and finally dismissed MacArthur from his post on April 11, 1951 because of his continued and partly public urge. This decision led to violent protests in Congress and public demonstrations for MacArthur. Seven million people are said to have participated in a parade in New York. Public opinion saw MacArthur as a great war hero, while President Truman was largely unpopular.
