Explanation:

the answer is A

A, they are afraid to give up their privacy rights.

Explanation:

The Patriot Act was signed into law by President George W. Bush on October 26, 2011. Its main goal was to strengthen the country's security after the September 11 terrorist attacks.The Act allows indefinite detention of suspected immigrants and gives the FBI the power to search and seize telephone, mail or any other private records.
