Reform of Section 702 of e Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act

Are you being targeted with no due process because of Section 702 of the Fisa?

According to Brennan Center they have this to say about the topic. 

What is Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act?

 Section 702 was enacted after 9/11 to give the government greater powers to monitor foreign terrorists. It authorizes the government to collect the communications of non-Americans located abroad without a warrant from a court. While this surveillance is supposed to target foreigners, it inevitably sweeps in Americans’ private phone calls, emails, and text messages too. Once collected, federal agents can search through this information even when they are specifically looking for Americans’ communications. Intelligence agencies conduct more than 200,000 of these warrantless “backdoor” searches for Americans’ private communications every year.

 By itself, that is an outrageous violation of Americans’ privacy rights. But the problem is compounded by what one federal judge described as the FBI’s “persistent and widespread” abuses of the minimal rules governing backdoor searches. Intelligence officials are only supposed to perform these searches if they reasonably believe they are likely to uncover foreign intelligence, or, in the case of the FBI, evidence of a crime. It’s an extremely permissive rule, yet agencies have repeatedly violated it. Declassified documents have revealed that officials have performed baseless backdoor searches for the private communications of racial justice protesters, members of Congress, journalists, crime victims, and political donors, among many others.

These abuses have outraged lawmakers, with many vowing not to reauthorize the law without “significant reforms.” But while there is bipartisan consensus in Congress that something must change, surveillance hawks who hold key positions are working hard to preserve the status quo. 

What do you think about the Section 702 Fisa?

Do you think congress is equipped to handle a lawful reform?  They seem to have trouble sticking to that these days if you know what I mean.  

The targeting of Americans and U.S. Citizens is unauthorized and they can all be held accountable in their private capacity.  People really need to hold these public servants accountable.

Their legal games and deception runs rampant throught their system working to entrap and entangle you by way of confusion and lets see what actual changes come about and the final outcome of their actions.
