Constantly Under Surveillance
When a person joins the First Family, they lose some of their liberties. This includes the ability to go somewhere on your own. Once you become a member of this family, you are constantly monitored by the secret service. The secret service’s mission is to protect the president, his family, and the vice president’s family. It makes no difference what you’re doing or where you’re doing it. They will always keep an eye on you once you become a member of the first family.

A president can not have full rights to all of the most cutting-edge technology. This, like anything else, is for security reasons. President Barack Obama is the first president to ever own a smartphone, and he is allowed to keep his Blackberry during his term as president. It is, that being said, heavily modified and encrypted and thus cannot be considered a smartphone. In an interview, Obama says, “Does your three-year-old have one of those play phones? That’s basically the phone I got.”
