...addition to being a waste of resources, that expansion of government power invades our privacy and tramples our freedoms. It must be stopped. If our government continues to spy on ordinary citizens, then the terrorists will have succeeded in eroding our liberty. Robert Boden II Tecumseh, Michigan, U.S. Thank you for your article on the government's data-mining program. Like most Americans, I understand that al-Qaeda is planning more attacks on U.S. soil.

...Thank you for including a diverse group of influential people in your Time 100 list [May 8]. I was especially delighted to see the story on the South Korean pop star Rain. His fame across Asia and the upcoming release of his English-language album show that pop culture no longer moves strictly from West to East. I don't speak Korean, but like many Asian Americans, I am attracted to Asian entertainers. Janet Vo Boston...
